Hello, I'll be upgrading the core of my PC (ram, cpu, mobo) to AM5. I've done a bit of research and it seems for the most part the x670 mobo is not really worth it at the high prices, however Newegg has a combo deal going on right now, These are the pieces I have mostly landed on, these are in U SD location and prices: * 7800x3d for $340 (it's -30 due to combo) * Gigabyte x670 Gaming X AX V2 at $180 (-30 due to combo) * Team T-force delta 3200 32 GB 6000 CL30 at $99 (-10 due to combo) Total $663 My current pieces that I already own are: * Nvidia Asus strix rtx 3080 12gb * Seasonic focus 850w plat What do you guys think, worth it? My reason for upgrading is that my current mobo has a dead Gpu slot and broken RGB pins so I thought instead of buying a new mobo I might as well platform upgrade now
Not starting with Ryzen 5000 or Intel 12th gen or newer. Beginning from something earlier.
I own a 5600x, an x570 gigabyte elite Wi-Fi and Evga bronze 850W. The motherboard has the top port damaged, so it only works with the bottom slot. My main reason for upgrading is swapping the motherboard and getting a 5800x3D, but by then it’s already around $500.
Review the bundle offers as well. A decent B550 board could be around $150, while a 5700X3D might sit near $200. Together they total roughly $400, and you receive a 7600X to 7700X performance range—plus your RAM, OS, installs, and more.
