I wonder how many months it would take most people before that $50 "savings" was used up from electricity costs and then started moving the other way.In to defend my 5800X purchase
Ryzen 5 2600-->3600X-->5800X. Same everything except CPU.
Now try doing that starting from a Core i5 9600K thru to a 11700K.
$50. Whoopteey dooo.
