      5500 trades blows with the 3600 that have been around $50-60 for well over a year. Not to poo poo on your deal but it’s not a crazy good price considering the performance it can give. It has half the L3 cache (16mb)as the standard 5600 (32mb) and up cpus and it only supports gen3. If you are on B550 or X570 already I would recommend keeping an eye out for a used 5700x or better deals that will net you double the cache and gen4 which will help if running direct storage games and or a 8x modern gpu like a 6600/4060.
      I just bought a $115 5700x not because I needed it over the 5600x but because I could push out a standard 5600 for $100 easily. If you just wait for a crazy used deal on a 5600x/5700x/5800x you can then sell your 5500 for max pricing around $80 and have very little out of pocket.
      It’s all about price, find a crazy good deal right around $100 for a proper 32mb version and then sell your 5500 for much of the cost of the upgrade. I just went from AM4 to AM5 for like $30-40 out of pocket.

      Not gonna lie, I upgraded to a 7800x3d and it is kinda generally more unstable than the 13th gen intel I was on before. The intel CPUs tend to be more plug and play you don't really need to worry about downloading the chipset drivers and stuff, but its really really important for AMD CPUs. that and the 7800x3d seems to just be stuttier than the equivalent intel CPU even though the performance is higher, its weird. I heard people calling it the AMDIP. but its been noticable for me even after making sure everything is set up right, and sticking with 6000cl30 ram which is measured to be the best for the 1% lows. and turning off all the potiential issue causers like core memory isolation, and rebar and HAGs and stuff to test

    I run a Ryzen 5700X.
    Not least because of the 8/16 core being better than the 5600X 6/12 core, but mostly because it remains a 65W part.
    5800X consumes 105W, an extra 40W for a few percent of extra speed.
    Power consumption is the most important factor for me, since I'm running on solar/battery.

    • @axescar
      @axescar 5 місяців тому +21

      With modern CPU's and mobos TDP is not a problem - you can even choose 14900k and run it with 65w limitations. It's always price/performance matters, but according to your power budget. I have SFF with 5800x3d with 70w CPU limitation, that never limit any game I played, but allow my ears to be in safe :)

    • @Vantrakter
      @Vantrakter 5 місяців тому +23

      TDP isn't power draw though, a 5600x isn't going to draw 65W vs 105W of an 5800X. What matters is actual power draw from the wall socket, not tdp

I completely regretted cheaping out with a 2600X when zen 2 was already out even and then eventually went to a 3700X then a 12700K. Since going 12700K around release, this is the longest ive gona without upgrading cause i really dont feel like i need a 14700K and wont need a zen 5 or 15th gen intel CPU. Its just not worth it and the 4070 Ti is more than enough at 1440p except some shit games that run like shit like Starfield or something.
      Im at a point now where i think you should just buy a decently buff rig and not pay attention to tech after and go touch grass. When you constantly buy cheaper parts that need to be replaced soon you put yourself in a spot where you pay wayyy too much attention to tech channels and stuff that make you wanna upgrade for meager ass performance increases or suck you into a weird ass corporate tribalism where you start basing your identity on a corporation that literally gives no fucks about you. Kinda avoid that by just every 3-5 years going “already whats actually good now and let me get something quality that works for me from the start and has decent legs”

    I made a single CPU purchase in 2023: a 5600 to replace a 1700 on an existing X370 board. It required a specific succession of chipset and BIOS updates, but it worked. Very nice performance boost. Why not a 5700X? For the role of the PC in question, six cores are plenty, I got an adequate cooler in the box, and the savings paid for a RAM upgrade as well. The 1700 remains with me in case I ever need to update an old AM4 board again.

    I got a 7900X for $350 _with_ 32 GB of ddr5 6000 ram included free. Actually I bought an extra 32GB as well (and yeah, "never buy unmatched ram"... but it was the same brand, lot, serial number, and they're all single-rank, so I was able to get them to play nice at their rated speed, your mileage may vary).
    Considering the 7950X was about $200 more, and the 7800X3D wasn't out yet (and initially was also $200 more), I'm quite happy with my pick.
    Also, the pc is "mixed use" and it's "4k"... so, budget multicore performance (for mixed use) and I have minimal cpu bottleneck concerns (cuz 4k puts the bottle on the gpu).
    All the experts were recommending a 5800X3D at the time (and it''s a great cpu), but one of the reasons I was building a new pc was because my previous build was stranded on the wrong side of a motherboard & ram platform change, so I wanted AM5 to forestall that eventuality on the new build. I'll probably swap it out eventually with a 8800 X3D or 9800X3D eventually (whenever AM5 is hitting it's end of life stage). AM5 engenders a LOT of new standards (pcie 4, many lanes, ddr5, and the cpu socket itself).
    Took a very different approach to gpu though. Wanted rock solid 4k performance with no if's/but's. So I went with a 4090. Considering it runs 4k "great" _without_ DLSS, _and_ I have DLSS to fall back on in the future... It seemed like a very long-term (albeit high cost) investment. I've undervolted it slightly, and made sure the plug is tighter than humanly possible, and the card's floating corner is well supported.

    Always love these lists and find it very interesting how different the US market is compared to the austrian/german one where I buy from. You can get a Ryzen 3600 boxed for less than 80€ and a Ryzen 5600 for as little as 110€ over here, there is almost no reason to go with Intel, as the 5600 easily beats the 12100 and the 3600 easily beats the 10100. Back in 2020/2021 when I built my latest PC the 10400f was significantly cheaper than the Ryzen 3600 counterpart and that was a great choice for me, but things change and I dont think there is a single good Intel option right now that beats any AMD counterpart in price to performance, let alone power consumption and upgradability.

      Be aware that if you moved to ANY x3d CPU prior to the BIOS fixes that corrected a lot of over-voltage issues with x3d CPUs you may have latent damage that shows up over time as well. I don't have empirical data to back me on that, just a gut feeling after building PCs for 30 years. Just FYI.

    I went from an i5 11400 to the 5800X3D earlier this year, and the jump in performance was insane. Yes I went from LGA1200 to AM4, but my case is a little different; mine's a mini ITX build, and parts are somewhat expensive. I would've had to spend hundreds of dollars more just to shift to AM5 with a R5 7600. I am killing future upgrade-ability by sticking to AM4 but my scope is also not that big, in the sense that my case is so small it can't physically accommodate a relatively large GPU. Currently I have a Reference RX 6800 in there which I bought second hand for around $350, and I'm going to have to wait a bit to replace it with something that is significantly faster for the same size and cost. By then AM5 will be cheaper with faster CPUs too.
    The fastest GPU that fits my case right now is the Founders 4070Ti, *if* I can find one, that is. But that's way too much money (almost 2.5x) for something that's less than 40% faster - not really a generational leap, imo. I'd need something that's atleast 2x as fast, which I don't think is happening until 2026 at the earliest.

Yes, technically I am holding my 5600X back on a B450M motherboard considering it is limited to PCI-E Gen. 3, but my RTX 2080 Super is PCI-E Gen. 3 so it is fine. I am hoping to keep with what I have for at least a few more years, had the 1600X and a GTX 1070 from 2019 when I bought those parts lightly used, and would likely be using them still if I had not gotten my hands on the RTX 2080 Super in exchange for some mechanic work I did, and sold my 1600X and GTX 1070 to a friend to buy my 5600X to go with the RTX 2080 Super. He got a truly massive upgrade to his gaming PC as he went from an AMD Phenom II 1075T with 8GB of RAM, and its only ever upgrade since 2010, an AMD RX 480 8GB, to the Ryzen 5 1600X and GTX 1070 on a brand new AsRock B450M motherboard with 32GB of RAM.
