most people looking at this have an am4 board right now
Kinda hard to compare a $250 upgrade to a $700 upgrade bud
Sinking more money into AM4? Again. How can you compare 250$ to a 700$ upgrade? Changing to AM5 is gonna be 3x the price of this. And for similar performance for a 7700x too

I have a 3700x from about 2018.. i don't see much in the way of life changing improvement over clearing a slight fps bottleneck on an amd 7900xt

You should get a 5700x3d for $205 from Amazon, because your 3700x is actually a huge bottleneck for a 7900XT

If you're not doing anything super intensive the 5900x paired with 64GB ram can last you another 5-10 years. Not even exaggerating here.

I have a 6700xt on an AMD 3600x, with 32gb ram. Should I upgrade to 5800x, 5700x3d or 5900x? (as I'm assuming that's the best next step to upgrade).
