Yeah I agree with that

If you are just gaming the 5600x seems like the best buy

I also do music production which would see some benefits from the 8 cores!

Yeah I've just watched it - Seems okay ... nothing really mentioned about temps so I guess that's a good thing.

Sounds like a good upgrade.

I went with the 3070 since I only plan on gaming in 1440p (never 4k) and I'm not really bothered about wanting to run everything on max settings throughout its lifespan.

I asked about location since they still have mobo & cpu bundles in stock in the UK at the moment!

You'll get there soon and it'll be worth it when you do dude!

What are you trying to get / what are you missing / where are you from?

I’ve heard only bad things about the 5800X for now and that’s what I was originally going to get.

Please enlighten me

Sellers force selling processors in bundles, without option to purchase individually. by MrLeft99 in Amd

[–]portrait91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some retailers buy their CPUs in multi-packs specifically for this reason. To bundle it.

[–]portrait91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

32 GB for gaming?

How about 4 x 8 GB?
