I might disagree slightly. I have a 5600x and am upgrading purely for the 3D cache. I am exclusively a flight simmer and that extra cache makes a world of difference (according to what I have seen). Maybe it's not going to be worth it, but I am CPU limited in XP12 with a 3060ti so I'm hopeful this helps out my mid-level "budget" build without having to touch the mobo or RAM.

worth the 20 bucks more considering that 5600x is around 130 right now. but then again 5600x might drop to near 110~100 around BF.

but if you have a 5600x, I wouldn't suggest getting the x3d version as an upgrade. just get on am5 tbh.
Is this about 30% faster then the 5600x in gaining?

Nice link. Thank you. Those benchmarks are running with a video card that very few people are going to buy... a 4090 really?

To me, the cost of the chip + extra cooling requirements do not seem to justify the minor gain from a 5600G. If building a new system though, yeah, I really like to see the competition and the prices dropping. I picked up the 5600G for $89 just before last Christmas.
I mean it's not just with a 4090 - it would also be true with a less powerful GPU as long as it's not being fully loaded. Even with my old 1080ti I saw about a 50% increase from a 5600x to a 5800x3d in many esports titles when set to low at 1080p. When the GPU was loaded I saw better frametimes overall but the difference was definitely not night and day.

Me tooπŸ‘Œ I've got a 3090, 32 GB of RAM, and the 3700 X is a bit of a bottleneck.

The sad thing is, I mostly only play Age of Empires 2 and Rocket League lol, so I don't need any of this stuff πŸ˜‚

Keep in mind the option of the bundle with the motherboard and ram which just dropped to $269.99. Was previously $350.

If you play esports titles at high refresh rate then probably.

This was with a 1080ti when I first upgraded:

God I wished I lived near a microcenter. This would be a perfect upgrade to my ryzen 1600. Hopefully the 5800x3d goes on sale soon
Same here. Wanting to upgrade from my Ryzen 1700. I was excited until I saw micro center.

I don't think I can get on am5 for under $50 (after selling my 5600x). This is 100% worth it.

Hard to argue with the value of dropping one of these on an AM4 board.

I'm team blue, but love the X3D stuff team red offers.

I went from 2700x to 5600 x and noticed in a few games one of them csgo I had nearly doubled my frames.

Note they also have a $25 off processors for new customers who "Sign up to get your in-store coupon via text" in case you want more of a discount! Can ask your friend (who doesn't live near a MC) to do it for you and have them send you the coupon. At least, for me, they did not ask for any verification - just scanned the barcode.

I was hoping to pickup a 5700x for this price, but I might make the trek to Microcenter to pick this up instead. 6 cores is probably good enough for my needs and benchmarks for this CPU seem similar to 5800x3d in gaming.
