Feels bad that I paid nearly $300 for one of these mid-pandemic. But it's still going strong in my main gaming PC so I guess I can't complain too much

it's frustrating that the price of the last generation has stayed up for so long, especially the motherboards

Would like to see a deal on the 5700X which rarely seems to go on sale.

Is there much difference between this and the 5700X? I've been wanting a 5700X, but this is a very tempting price point. Ideally I'd want a 5800X or even 5900X but the case I'm working with really doesn't have room for much more than the stealth cooler, so cooling would be an issue.

I currently have a 5600G (bought when video card prices were crazy) and just recently bought a Radeon RX 5700 XT. I'm going to recycle the 5600G into my media server. I'm mainly looking for light gaming and some video compression work with Handbrake.

Cause AMD market share for 7xxx cpu is trash! Might as well gouge and earn profiteer profits on early adopters who dont care about price

I mean…yes? Sadly, that's just good business. If people don't care about price, they're going to change whatever they can get away with. (Almost all) corporations exist solely to make money at this point in our late-stage capitalist existence.

5700x will take you up to the rtx4070 @ 2k with no bottleneck. So depends if you plan on going up to or above that on your next graphics card upgrade before you'd need to overhaul your system.

I had a 3600 with my Rtx 2070 so I made the jump to the 5700x and threw in 32gigs of ram and m.2 gen 4. This way I have the option to upgrade up to the 4070 or whatever the next series is without jumping to am5.
