I would buy a new 5700x3d for 250usd if AMD continued to produce these CPUs. I didn't upgrade in time and now they are either completely gone or have skyrocketed in price (used). I don't understand why AMD stopped producing these CPUs, for poor countries they are top-notch gaming CPUs.5500x3d,5600x3d,5700x3d and 5800x3d.
Similar here. 5950X in main rig, and 5800X in home server. Not moving anywhere for years to come
Seen Salem Techsperts trying that out.
Next up are SSD drives, I just don't know if they are all or just certain interfaces, m2, sata, etc.?
The snob that I am ditched SATA Nand and spinners back in 2020, so if I were to guess it would be NVME that will be next. But I heard spinners have gone up so might as well just say the computer industry will be completely fucked for the next 3-5 years.. at least. I have my doubts that recovery will be possible.. but you never know.
I kind of did that, but still have some mirrored spinners for bulk storage. They've just been banished to the file server/linux box in the basement. That box also has NVME drives, and the rest of my machines are NVME only. I probably ought to think about replacing those spinners. They're 5 years old now.
When I was running AM4 for my rig every couple of weeks or so I would swap my 5900X out for my 5800X3D. I play at 4K so my 5900X was fine, and felt faster in pretty much everything compared to my X3D. My son is using the 5800X3D now at 1080p and that baby CPU absolutely rips lol. Such a weird little CPU. Slow for everything, but great at low res gaming.
Kingston says that it is not withdrawing from the consumer segment, but that prices will gradually increase as inventory is depleted.
So um, for someone with an extra kit of 64gb Ddr5 5600 sodimms who might want to go for a desktop build soon, how well do these adapters work, and is there anywhere reputable to order them from?
no personal experience, seemed ok on youtube vids... you can get them on newegg.
Hmm, saw a tpu thread where people were only getting 3200mhz out of ddr5 with them
. https://www.techpowerup.com/forums/...-instead-of-full-size-dimm-ddr5.343651/page-3From what I gather, they are top-notch everywhere. Reviews of amd gaming cpu's ranked those cpu's within throwing distance of amd's latest and greatest.
I haven't followed the reviews of the new ones because the new one is out of my reach anyway. I've been looking at the reviews for the 5700x3d and the cpu kills the 5900xt and 5950xt in games. It would be nice if they resumed production, with the prices of ddr5 memory (ssd soon and others will probably follow) only the richest will buy the latest.
Prices do drop off after a few years. The 5800x3d is fairly old now, but could probably have gotten 30-60% more on the open market, but not much more as it is old hardware. To put things into perspective, I paid just over $600 + sales tax for 32GB DDR5 6000mhz CL 28 and a 9800x3D over the course of October and November, so $600 for a 5800x3D is nuts.
250-300$ is not terrible. I bit the bullet and got a 7600x3D vs 9800x3d when I moved to AM5 as a part of building my wife a PC with my old ITX setup.
The approx $600 + sales tax wasn't just for the RAM, that included the 9800x3D CPU from retail, so not bad at all. Out of that, the CPU was about $390 + sales tax, which is why I can't understand why anyone would pay more for an old and much slower CPU. Sure VRAM is in short supply now, but it would make more sense to though it out than to overpay a lot for a zen 3 CPU.
Yup, Zen 3 is pretty slow these days. Would not recommend.
Very nice price, you didn't cheat your friend. Now I found an ad asking 900eur for a 5700x3d, 32gb 3200mhz ddr4 and B550 mbo.
just bite the bullet and get a cheap AM5 and deal with memory. At those prices why invest in a dead socket is beyond me
Nothing from the new AM5 kit, there's nothing cheap anymore, I'm pushing the 5600X until it dies, I OC'd it as much as I can and that's it.
9600x or an older 7600x or if you have a MC in your area 7600x 3d. Someone who is buying new am5 all the way
7600x3d is around 300eur, 9600x around 200eur, 7600x a little under 200eur. I don't need AM5, I would be happy with 5700X3D.
but your investing in a dead socket. IDK if I were upgrading an existing AM4 yes but if buying new AM5 all the way.
If I put $ into a dead socket I think I'd be more likely to do a cheap LGA 1700 Intel upgrade and just reuse the DDR4. You can still get cheap $120-150 DDR4 B760 boards. ~$210 14600K should be enough to keep up with a 5800X3D, so ~$350 new in box with warranty for board & proc vs. $600 for a used 5800X3D. Ok, maybe I'd also need a new cpu cooler. Still cheaper, should roughly keep up in gaming, faster in just about everything else, and new with a warranty. I think the only way I'd ever consider a used 5800X3D for $600 is if I had a really nice AM4 board, 64GB of good/decent DDR4, and wanted 64GB on the new build. Otherwise I'd cheap out and buy a cheap throwaway board + Intel proc or bite the bullet and buy the DDR5.
Intel is out of the question, I have no idea who buys a 5800x3d for 600usd and why, I certainly won't. If they started selling a 5700x3d for 200-250usd then I would probably buy it.
