With the PLE deal now on backorder with no ETA you can grab the Ryzen 5800X3D CPU from Shopping Express bundled with the more high end MSI MAG X570S Tomahawk Max motherboard. Unfortunately SE were unable to sell the CPU on it's own, however it's a good opportunity to stack all those discounted eBay gift cards for larger savings.

The Ryzen 5800X3D is easily one of the best CPUs you can get right now for gaming thanks to the whopping 96MB of L3 Cache compared to the 32MB on the regular 5800X. It has 8 CPU cores with 16 threads, a base clock of 3.4GHz and a boost clock 4.5GHz.

The MSI MAG X570S Tomahawk Max motherboard is packed with features including 4x DDR4 memory slots, 2x PCIe 4.0 x16 slots, 6x SATA ports, 2x M.2 NVMe Gen4 slots, 3x USB 3.2 Gen 2 10Gbps ports, 4x USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports, Realtek 2.5Gbps LAN, Realtek ALC4080 7.1 audio with S/PDIF and Intel WiFi 6E AX210.

    I don't know if this is a deal or not,

    5800X3D is a awesome CPU if you have a AM4 system already and only upgrading, but $900 for CPU and MB on a dead platform?

    for about $1000 you can get the 7600X CPU and a X670 MB.

    Y/N?

      for about $1000 you can get the 7600X CPU and a X670 MB.

      Don't forget, you'll likely need DDR5 RAM too.

      • checkingthisout on 29/09/2022 - 18:20

        I don’t get it. Ddr5 ram doesn’t seem that expensive. When realistically you only need 16gb for gaming.

          exactly, if I was building a entire new system right now and had that budget for a CPU/MB, why buy into a dead platform?

          Is it really though when you consider the cost of DDR5 and a cooler?

            @Clear: I thought AM4 coolers were compatible with AM5?

              +2

              @Aleigh123: I double checked. Yes and no. Most coolers are backwards compatible with manufacturers like Noctua saying some models already aren't compatible.

            • nitens on 29/09/2022 - 16:09
              +2

              @Aleigh123: Compatible in some cases yes, but AMD has upped the TDP on the AM5 CPUs so they'll have the ability to get significantly hotter than Zen3. Meaning you may want to be more picky with your choice of cooler.

          • Ryballs on 30/09/2022 - 10:03

            @Clear: I see your point but it's only $100 more for 32GB DDR5 vs DDR4 and if you are spending $1000 on just mobo/CPU you should probably be buying a decent cooler anyways.

      • frondono on 29/09/2022 - 15:00

        I think AMD are still going to release some newer AM4 cpus in the future. So that might be interesting.

        • Clear on 29/09/2022 - 15:06

          5700X3D would be nice. 5950X3D would be very future proof.

          Pretty sure they said they were retiring AM4. It wouldn’t make sense from a business perspective to keep producing CPUs for their older platform

          • shellshocked on 29/09/2022 - 17:00

                @frondono: Is there something to suggest that "continue for many years to come" means anything more than just continuing to support the older platform through driver/firmware updates? Seems like a leap to say she's suggesting there will be brand new cpus for am4

                • shellshocked on 30/09/2022 - 09:55

                  @snep: Well if you look at a leaked roadmap, 7000 series will run along side 5000 for 2023. You realise that the benefit of AMD's chiplet design is that they can utilise multiple architectures without significantly effecting their margin. They are not monolithic like Intel. Also being fabless means they don't have to worry about tooling like Intel does for CPU manufacture.

          Latest rumour is an improved 3600 “AF” SKU, similar to the 1600 AF so would be on newer Zen 3. I don’t see them releasing any new high end products for AM4 though

            @FireRunner: Perhaps. I know there were 5600X3D rumours. Probably unlikely but AMD did do similar later on with the 3xxx series.

            • FireRunner on 29/09/2022 - 16:08

              @Clear: Pretty unlikely. The 5800X3D is already making the 7000 series look not as good.

                +1

                @FireRunner: Makes sense. AMD don't want to undermine the new generation and compete with themselves. Chances are 5xxx prices won't drop much further.

                Now I need to decide if I drop some $$$ to upgrade the 5600X or just wait and go 7xxx with a new build.

                • FireRunner on 29/09/2022 - 16:19
                  +1

                  @Clear: If you decide to upgrade, get 5600 (non-X) since performance is basically equal to that of the X but generally priced lower

                  • Clear on 29/09/2022 - 16:21

                    @FireRunner: Oh I mean I have a 5600X in my current build. 5700X was tempting since it's basically a cooler 5800X that you can clock higher to match.

                    • FireRunner on 29/09/2022 - 16:27
                      +2

                      @Clear: I can’t justify upgrading from my 5600 to a 5800X3D at the current prices. I might bite the bullet if it ever goes around $500. The 5700X/5800X aren’t a big enough step for me to consider

                        @FireRunner: That's the sort of feeling I've been getting. I have a 3080 10GB and going to a 3090 doesn't feel like a big upgrade either unless the price is much lower.

                            @FireRunner: My guess is a repeat of zen 2. Producing CPUs on obsolete fabs could be very lucrative. 7nm will get much cheaper now that the market is moving to 5nm as mainstream.

    • teddiebear on 29/09/2022 - 19:39

      Yeah i don't think this is a good deal at all. Reason being: the tomahawk is a $300 board at normal price, $280'ish on special. Leaves the cpu to be $600. For these prices on an older platform, if you can't afford the new AM5, by all means sort a deal out with clearance items. Is it worth upgrading to AM5?? No… the jump isn't that great. Buy this deal at this price? No… shop around for people getting rid of old stock

    You can get the x570s tomahawk wifi on Amazon for $279 if I remember correctly.

      $888 total isn't correct. PLE is backorder with no ETA, but let's assume there's stock. It's $609 delivered only if you're in Melbourne, otherwise it's $20ish for shipping. Amazon is backorder, but let's assume that's in stock ready to ship too and the total price becomes…. $908.

      So this deal works out to be cheaper AND if you have discounted eBay gift cards from the almost weekly cashback deals you can get it for even less.

      • inDahoud on 29/09/2022 - 15:07

        So if you’re Melbourne, it’s cheaper.

        If you use the scorptec deal, it’s $9 shipping to bring it to $897.

          Amazon says "Usually dispatched within 2 to 3 days." so that means it's not in stock ready to ship yet. Scorptec with $10 shipping works out to be $898 with the Amazon. So really it's a couple of dollars and everyone is selling for about the same price.

          So yeah different options.

    AMD screwed the competition up royally. The 7950X only matches the 12900K in gaming performance now the 12900K will hold its price around $900 and the 13900K can be pre ordered for $1100.

    • TimR31 on 29/09/2022 - 15:40

        Cant know for sure till benchmarks are out but if the 13700k matches or even beats the 12900k then AMD is DOA this gen for gaming, AMD is just too expensive considering your forced to get DDR5 and barely matching there competitors LAST gen CPU.

          Its not about just today. Yes its DDR5. But think of all the upgrades you can do till Zen 6+ on AM5 platform. With intel, you are stuck with 13700K forever.

            • [Deactivated] on 29/09/2022 - 16:29

              @dontbeatightarse: Becuase X670 has all the latest feature, there is no point in selling it and buying another for another 4 years. Also you lose money when you change platforms.

              • dontbeatightarse on 29/09/2022 - 16:33

                @[Deactivated]: No I mean say you buy a 12700K or 12900K then buy z690 MSI A PRO with DDR4 you're saving now and matching 7950X performance anyway. You can upgrade to 13900K or keep it for 4 years and then upgrade you are saving more money.

            7950x $1200 + Cheapest X670 MB $499 + 32GB DDR5 6400mhz CL32 Ram $529 = $2228
            vs
            13900k $1099 + cheapest Z690 MB i9 can find $239 + 32GB DDR4 3600 CL16 Ram $169 = $1507

            Most likely you already have DDR4 ram from your old PC so that's another $169 saving.

            I still think a $721($890 if you already have RAM) saving is worth going with a dead socket after this gen when you consider that DDR5 with be even more mature and cheaper as will AM5 in a few years time.

            When you consider how much the resale value would be for the intel stuff using past generations to give you an idea you would still be better off with going intel now then buying a CPU + MB+DDR5 Ram in a few years time which by then the ram will be cheaper and you will have an even newer motherboard not a X670 which is older by then.

    • Robbo89 on 29/09/2022 - 18:40

      What? The 7600X beats the 12900K. Where are you getting your information from? Also the 5800X3D is better than the 12900K anyway, which is better than both for gaming and like $600.

    This combo and 16GB ddr 4 will cost you close to 1000. But for around ~1150 to 1200, you can get 7xxx CPU, X670 mobo - even the cheapest decent one, 16GB DDR5.

    You will get same performance in games, and much better performance overall + upgradibility till 2025+. IMO this CPU is not worth at this point if you have to buy mobo and RAM.

    I got a NIB X570s Tomahawk off eBay for $185, a 5600x for $279, 32gb ram for $210. Not saying what I’ve done was right but the reason I did that (other than needing a comp asap), was:
    • the potential ongoing power usage cost of these new platforms worries me
    • I’m an “average” user, doing office work, casual photoshop and video editing and would like the ability to play current games at 1440p.
    So I would’ve had to pay double the above for new intel or triple for AMD. I expect my current setup to last me 4 years before needing to upgrade.
    My point is while I wouldn’t do this if I was going to spend $600 on a CPU, I think if you’re after best value for basic needs there’s still a case for going AM4.

      The power consumption figures you are speaking about is only applicable when you are rendering all the time. For gaming etc, it wont be as high, but the extra FPS is worth it. For casual video editing, those power figures makes no difference.

      The rest is true, but not with a 600+$ CPU.

      Another thing worth mentioning are the higher temps with 90 C being the new normal. Arctic and Noctua need to cash in one this with some sales I think.

    5800x3d only makes sense if you already have an existing platform to drop it into.

    Buying an am4 socket mobo now makes no sense, unless you have some ddr4 you're absolutely dying to use and only plan on gaming.

    Not a good deal, especially if you don't need the extra PCI-E slots that X570 offers. Just buy the CPU on its own and get a cheap B550 board.

    This CPU smokes the 12900K and 7700X in gaming and temps.

    Waiting on a 5800X3D prebuilt with 3080 or above then its game on time

    This is a bad deal. B650 is coming and we are yet to see the 7000 series X3D variants.

    7000 X3D will smoke this deal but don’t hold your breath as that wont be released until Q2 2023
