    Yeah with a 5800x i feel like the 5800x3d is kind of a sidegrade, but if they release a 5950x3d at competitive pricing i might be tempted to spend more in am4.

      They will never release a 5950X3D there was a prototype floating around and the dual ccd cause issues with the gains you see from the cache.

      So it was axed.

        Not only that but these chips are probably coming from 5800X3D that don’t make it, so they can use them as lower core count chips… Can’t make them have more.

        Those issues are present on the 7900x3d and 7950x3d their driver “fixes it” and their server chips have vcache on all the ccd and work fine.

        For purely gaming those chips will always run into issues but for a power user they would work just fine

      I went from 5800x to 5800x3d and have zero regrets, I felt it was a significant upgrade.

        I’m in that camp, wondering if it’s worth making the jump. I don’t play any strategy games or sim

          if you already own a 5800x it’s not worth it to spend 300$ on a 5800x3d. If you have 300$ spare, then sell your platform and buy into AM5.

        I went from a 3700x to 5800x3D and that was a big difference. I actually just recently discovered the cause of my heating too.
