You're getting a Ryzen 5000 processor!
Looking into what everyone is doing with the new Ryzen CPUs. I’m phasing out my old MB—bad voltage issues with the X570 asrock—so I’m moving to a 5900x. It offers more cores and better performance for content creation and gaming. What do you think?
I’m moving from a dual-core laptop and need an upgrade. Instead of the originally scheduled 5600X, I’m planning to wait and check if Intel releases a 5600 model in Q1 2021.
It's rumored to release in December or January for the 5600 model.
expecting Ryzen 6000/7000 chips (the ones people call the first AM5 processors)
Operating at 2600 psi with an OCd of 4.0ghz, I was considering a 3000-series upgrade until I heard about the 5000-series. I’m thinking about moving to a 5900x, which feels excessive since I mainly use my PC for gaming. However, the extra £100–£150 from upgrading from 5800x to 5900x makes it worth it in my opinion!
You're facing a tough decision about your build path. With a 10th gen Intel setup from July, you're aiming for a long-lasting system. Upgrading to an 11700k later in 2021 or early 2022 seems like a smart move unless the cost outweighs the benefits. Alternatively, if you prefer gaming performance, an AMD build could be more appealing now.
