Near all time low for the 5900x once shipping is accounted for.
Great value in terms of dollars per core

If i had money, I would buy this in a heartbeat
$<800 5950x deal wen
5950x was $789 at the end of July on Amazon.
Black friday
Was about $687 from memory on afterpay day. Nearly pulled the trigger but need a GPU first
yep thats the kind of deal we need back.
Guess that was before the aud tanked and inflation though hrmm
The savings on a 3xxx GPU and 59x0 CPU should offset FX drops in a month or so. Until then, I'll do the same as the past two years and keep hodling.
I am tempted to dump the AM4 MB and get a Raptor Lake CPU and board and stick with iGPU and DDR-4 a little longer.
Worth upgrading from 3900x for 4K gaming ?
Probs not, 4k gaming on most games barely touches the cpu. Some games definitely do though!
Omg i paid 450 for a brand new 5600x when it first came out how times fly.
This or a 5800X3D?
X3D if it's purely for gaming. Otherwise this is a better CPU if you're doing other heavy tasks as well
13600k
Not compatible with AM4 socket.
i also recommend a potato.
since we are doing the "recommend irrelevant things" theme.
How come? It is cheaper and faster.
@Dienk: in isolation,maybe.
you are ignoring the question the person is asking, since they would be on AM4.
then your option isn't cheaper nor faster (compared to replacing a single CPU part).
@Dienk: Looking on Centrecom website
$569 Intel 13th Gen Core i5-13600K
$269 MSI PRO Z690-A DDR4 LGA 1700 Desktop Motherboard (cheapest Z690 board on there)
Total price - $838$709 AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D
It's an extra $129 to upgrade to a 13600K compared to upgrading to an 5800X3D and re-using his existing mobo.
1440p/4K with ultra-settings and want a productivity CPU = 5900X
1080p/1440p and mostly gaming = 5800X3D
5900X is not a bad gaming CPU and will be pretty close to the 5800X3D in 4K or 1440p ultra settings with a relatively high-end GPU. 5800X3D is a bit of an anomaly though and can really shine in specific games.

someone share this link (it is 13600 review but compared to most cpu), it got most popular cpu benchmark in games, productivity, power consumption, heat ect.
5800x3D for gaming PC, 5900 for productivity PC.
game over 579
Didn't last long, now $579.
i hate flash sale, it should be illegal
I have been keeping an eye on this prior to the 1300 Intel series and waiting for the drop. They increase the prices from $589 inline with everyone else to $669. I think this was a pricing error and now it's back to it's normalish price.
obviously its ended but would this be suitable to pair with a 4090?
Yeah it is
Genuine question, how much of an upgrade would this be from a 5600x?
Not much, save up for a better gpu or put it towards your savings for your next big upgrade.
Gaming wise about 5% or less. In multi-thread productivity you can expect close to double performance. Single threaded performance maybe 5-10% faster.
I ordered at the end of the flash sale and it was $499+shipping in my cart. I placed the order and the receipt says $574+shipping. Didn't take a screenshot of the deal either for proof.
I've sent pccg a message but worried im out $75.
wow. this is a good price!
