I run gigabyte B450M with Ryzen 7 5800x3d and i want to upgrade my Ram into DDR5 , can I upgrade into a newer mobo? My cpu is Am4 socket but can i use it on am5 socket or i am fucked and i cannot upgrade into DDR5? PS: My gpu is m RedDevil 6700xt
DDR5 is AM5 only, so you need to switch to an AM5 processor too. If you already have a 5800X3D, you basically have no need to upgrade for awhile, unless you have shit RAM at like 2666M/T or something
I want a 5950x3d
This seems like a bad idea for AMD unless they are just dumping chips. The 5700X is already as fast as the 5800X when it comes to gaming so I would bet the 57000X3D will be close to the 5800X3D.
Why is it a bad idea? It’s likely chips that can’t make the 5800x3D specs. So instead of selling them at 5600x3D prices/specs, they can introduce the 5700x3D which has a higher price.
Again man no one seems to have reading comprehension. I said UNLESS they are trying to dump chips. So they have been sitting on chips that did not meet validation and now want to dump them, okay cool.
IF they had just thought lets add more chips it would be bad idea.
If you knew what CPU binning and validation are you’d realize this is actually an awesome idea. If they have CPUs that aren’t able to hit the target frequency and voltage range they’ve set for the 5800X3D, why not validate those chips at a lower frequency and voltage and sell it to people that want a fast, cheap, low power chip for gaming while making a profit instead of throwing it in the bin? Same as the 5700X vs 5800X. Makes perfect sense.
I understand chip binning and validation, the bad idea comes from the fact of why bother to buy a 5800X3D when you can buy a 5700X3D? As for the validation argue you made my initial point for me. They have a bunch of chips that failed to hit certain requirements, been sitting on them and now need to dump them so here we go. Might want to read my entire post and look at what I am saying before jumping to an assumption.
So mad I bought a 5700x over the summer. Might get this or the 5800x3D.
2600x < 3600 < 5600 < 5800x3d has been my path on AM4. With all the new x3d chips, us gamers won’t need to upgrade for a few years. Would never be possible with Intel.
You upgrade every gen, why stop at Zen 3D? It’s not like you ever started with chasing top performance.
there’s also been rumors about a 5500x3D earlier last week
Darn I’ve been so frustrated for buying 5600 and not 5800x3d, but maybe this will be good
Please release this and the 5500X3D in europe 🙃
If the 5500x3d is just around 5600x in price then it would be good deal. Its not for everyone since its only at 4Ghz top speed which would make the FPS limit around 120 or 144?
4Ghz top speed which would make the FPS limit around 120 or 144?
Max frame rate will be game dependent. Plenty of old 2GHz processors can do 144 on old games, and plenty of 4GHz processors can’t do 100 hz in some demanding new games.
Might be interesting depending on the cost but the 5800X3D is so expensive in Australia that the 7800X3D is going for basically the same price… Might just be better ditching my AM4 or settling for a 5700X instead…
Same in Norway. I wanted to Get a 5800x3d because the itx motherboards Are much cheaper. It’s a 400 euro part here, which is completely mad.
I have been looking at Hagglezon to see who has the cheapest and it is currently €313 in Amazon France
yea but getting a 7800x3d also means upgrading your whole system except the gpu?
Except the GPU, Storage, PSU and chassis. So only half.
Not whole system, just motherboard and RAM. I could get some cheapies for ~$175 USD so it’s no a massive difference.
You would need a new cpu cooler unless your current one is am5 compatible.
I’d need a new one regardless if I went with a 5800X3D, 5700X or 7800X3D so it’s not an extra cost in comparison. The only exception is if I were to go with a 7600.
You can use AM4 compatible coolers on AM5.
Damn, amazing that AM4 is still getting new CPUs 6 1/2 years after launch. My B350 board I got on launch day is still going strong with a 5800X for my dad’s Flight Simulator system. Hopefully AM5 has a similar lifespan!
That’s awesome. Sadly my 370 board does not like booting with more than one stick of ram :(
Hate it when that type of shit happens with mobos. I have an intel board that wont boot in any other configuration but the Ram in the first and second slot -__- Not my main board, but one that I have. it’s a really premium board too so its a shame.
I suspect we’ll see the same for AM5, AMD is just fudging with the 2025 date in case the engineering doesn’t allow it. It’s pretty profitable for AMD, having a userbase like that.
Intel once created LGA775. Now AMD did AM4.
man I wish the 5800x3d would drop in price a bit more
So do I, but agree with other reply that likely not due to tiered pricing. I regret not jumping on 290 and will probably pull the trigger next time it’s under 300.
Micro Center still has a few in stock at 280 depending on your location.
The difference between X and X3D?
X3D has stupid amounts of cache, which is amazing for gaming. Some games can get a 40% boost in average fps, and almost games will get better 1 & 0.1% lows
So are 5800X 3D & 5700X 3D good enough to push near 4090 GPU performance levels without being a big bottleneck?
Look at some of the recent reviews of the 14th gen Intel. They still include 5800X3D in the charts, and it definitely punches above its weight. No regrets as an owner…
yep it beats the 14th gen intel more often than id expect for such an old chip
It launched a year and a half ago…
Also Intel’s 14th gen is just 12th gen ++
Depends on your resolution/refresh rate target. I have 5800x3d and 4090 with LG C2 (4k/120hz), and I am pretty much never CPU bottlenecked.
Same setup and same result. 5800X3D is a good match for a 4090. And the two are very power efficient per fps. So if you want to keep the heat down at a certain target fps at 4k, then you can’t do much better than this combo assuming you require a 4090s power to begin with.
I can see only going for 5800x3d in about 2-3 years from my 5600.
Sounds like a good plan. The 5700x3D may be a better value as the highest end processor for a socket tends to be oddly expensive.
