The difference in performance isn't worth the price and it isn't even close.

In my opinion, certainly not. But, I like to buy a year or two old tech and I usually keep it several years. I don't buy until there is a big leap at a moderate price.

I'm on a $90 i3-12100 now and replace it with either a 13700 or a 14700 in 1-3 years for about $200. Usually it's some GPU purchase that guides my need for more processor. If you a zipping files, editing videos, and getting great graphics then consider what you are trying to achieve.

2 more cores, with a higher base clock.
5800x is the best AM4 chip for games that focus heavily on clockspeed, unless you count the 5800XT which *just* came out.
If you're playing more modern games you might want the 5800X3D which is gonna perform better in games that will utilize the extra cache.

5700x3d is like $152 bucks on AliExpress... Just have to wait a couple weeks or so for delivery.

I'd actually ignore the upgrade suggestions and save that money for an AM5 upgrade.

For gaming I would get the x3D, for desktop use the more energy efficient 5700x

Nope. You'd be better off upgrading to a modern platform for real performance improvements. Obviously that would require a new motherboard and DDR5 too, so you may want to save up, but the performance leap will be much higher.

5700x3d 💯 it's gonna blow the doors off of what the 5800x can do and it's really close to the performance of the 5800x3d, for much less $$ which is always at the top of the charts when it comes to gaming benchmarks

Not likely... but from a 2600X or 3600X I'd say yes!

No. Save that money for GPU or next (next) gen Ryzen

No, aside from what everyone else has already said, the 5800x has a higher TDP and needs more advanced cooling and will draw more electricity for little extra performance

I paid twice as much for my 5800X back in 2021 so I would consider this a deal.
