[Delete if repost.] Had some concerns about investing into a possibly already dead platform that is AM4. They just keep pumping out the news about up and coming designs that kills the joy for the current.
"Zen 3-based Ryzen 4000 is touted to offer anywhere between 8 to 15% IPC gains and moderately higher clocks over the current Ryzen 3000 lineup. However, Ryzen 4000 is most likely to be the last Socket AM4-compatible generation, according to a insider information obtained by RedGamingTech. Ryzen 5000 based on Zen 4 could very well transition to Socket AM5 as the DDR5 and PCIe Gen5 standards that are expected to debut around late 2021 or early 2022 could make retaining the current AM4 socket difficult."
