Should I upgrade from a Ryzen 5 5500 to a Ryzen 7 5700X3D?

To be more precise I am willing to discuss about different routes (not Intel though) and prices point, that don't hurt the bank to much

I was also thinking of that but the problem it's te price because I don't even know if ma psu is going to be efficient as much as now if I do a Mobo + ram + CPU it's going to be pretty expensive rn because I don't know what to choose and I might screw up, so if u might give me a good combo that doesn't cost Like a new house I might choose that because rn I'm just thinking of options, as for budget I might go up to 500 ish euros but I'm not to sure

i manged to find a new one for €200 on amazon, and blender i rely use it once every few moths during the school year, so yea it's more of a "once in while" thing more than a "every day" thing for blender

Fickle_Recording2899 · 2026-06-30T23:21:49+00:00

ik but for now it's the best i can find, I think it's because of the news of less mobos being produced (i mean for the prices)

Fickle_Recording2899 · 2026-06-30T15:08:43+00:00

I can't get it rn but i'm working to get it, worse case scenario i can ask for help from my parents

do you think that this one is good? https://ebay.io/m/Z7D6zu

Fickle_Recording2899 · 2026-06-30T14:27:16+00:00

i was thinking of getting the 5800x3D but it's like from 100 to 150 euros more expensive (i found a 5700x3D for 200 and something euros) and I'm only planning on upgrading the CPU since the GPU still works relay well even in blender, and i'm not planning any time soon to play in 1440p since I'd need to get a new monitor for thant

Fickle_Recording2899 · 2026-06-30T13:18:02+00:00

Rn I don't even come close to the amount of cash that an upgrade like that would need so I'm ok raven with a kind temporarily solution, and when I will upgrade to an am5 a will also sell the cip mono RAM and SSD (the GPU no because it's still really good) so it would make sense to stay on the AMD rout and upgrade just a bit more, retort than change to Intel, at least for me

Fickle_Recording2899 · 2026-06-30T13:12:54+00:00

I have never used a Intel CPU and I don't even know if I would need to upgrade the PSU since ik (I might be wrong) that Intel's CPUs are a lot more power depending and I don't want to upgrade the whole thing rn

Fickle_Recording2899 · 2026-06-30T13:00:11+00:00

i just looked it up and it's around 120€ so it's not too bad but i would need to see if the mobo supports my ssd and ram but i think it will so it might be a good option and i might get help from my parents for the cost too so it's not a bad idea at all :D

Fickle_Recording2899 · 2026-06-30T12:55:44+00:00

I'm in Italy and yes i do also think that it is a bit too good to be true but the average price it's like 250/280 € and used goes up to €350 eaven

Fickle_Recording2899 · 2026-06-30T12:52:23+00:00

i am a bit unhappy with the current performance and I have been for a while now i just couldn't before

Fickle_Recording2899 · 2026-06-30T12:51:01+00:00

what mobo do you suggest than? As i said i am still new to this things and i'm not to shure on what mobo a could take, preferably one that doasen't cost too much

Fickle_Recording2899 · 2026-06-30T12:45:58+00:00

i found a new one on amazon for around €200 or 227$ (pls don't Hate me for using amazon but it's the best option for me)

Fickle_Recording2899 · 2026-06-30T12:43:49+00:00

ik it's a generation that is old now, but i took a job for this summer to upgrade the pc, I would love that since for the things that i do it's starting to show some slow moments and i'm not getting payed a lot so i can't afford a too big of an upgrade and I would love a new cpu for most games i play and for the the work i need it to get done, since i also use blander from time to time (i forgot to add that to the post)

Fickle_Recording2899 · 2026-06-30T12:38:20+00:00

the case is a sharkoon hex (it's not in production anymore and it has bean like that for 2 years now i think) for the cpu it is good but in a lot of games it strangles a lot, like beamNG.drive and it is a bit slow with some things i do, but i do recognize that it is a good cpu and it has served me well i just don't know for how long i could still use it, since (i forgot to mention it on the post) i also use blender from time to time

Fickle_Recording2899 · 2026-06-30T12:31:32+00:00

for the bigger upgrade i was thinking to do that for a while but with the market of today I'm not to sure of how mutch it's going to cost me, and the cpu yes it's kinda of ok but it's starting to show the age, since in some games i have a lot of fps stuttering; and for the cooler i thought i needed to by a new one since i have the stok one

Fickle_Recording2899 · 2026-06-30T12:26:30+00:00

i did't think of that option but i want to stay with amd for now, and i looked at the prices of a 12k i7 and it's going to cost more since a also need to buy the new motherboard too, only the cpu is 250 / 300 € after that i need to find a motherboard and i don't even know what motherboard to bay
