      Do ittt, probably would be due for a repaste anyways ;)

      Or also wait for the aliex sale and grab a 5700x3d

      • Eevee on 09/09/2024 - 08:10

        I wonder if it's worth getting a 5700x3d from aliexpress given that it's usually around $230, or just get this deal which is $158.

            @Sleepycat3: 5700x and 5700x3d are extremely close in performance except for maybe super high framerates on 1080p like 200+.

      Same same, bought my system at the start of COVID lockdowns in Jan 2021 with the idea that I was going to swap out the budget-fitting 3600 after a year for something better and throw in another 16gb of RAM - nearly 4 years later and it's still "good enough" that I can't justify it

    • seori on 09/09/2024 - 07:29

      I've done this exact upgrade, made my pc feel 100% smoother and faster and around a 20-30% fps boost with significantly lower 1% frames drops in cpu based games (csgo, valorant etc) :) I bought this cpu at 230 a few months ago and thought it was a bargain, I think this is a no brainer but if you want a true jump in fps games, I think you should wait for the x3d series to come down to a drop

      I was feeling the same but pulled the trigger and upgraded my 3800 to a 5800x3D and I'm so glad I did.

      If you are planning to sell the 3600, you ought to do so now before the value completely drops off on the used market.

        maybe 1 or 2% faster in games.. lol where did you get 20-25% from a 5600 to a 5700X workstation tasks like rendering maybe only because of 2 extra cores.

    • KARMAAA on 09/09/2024 - 07:54
      +2

      Unless you need it for something heavily multi-threaded like video rendering or 3D design or CAD etc it's not really worth the upgrade. You will be capped staying on AM4, I doubt there will ever be anything more powerful than a 5950X to come to AM4 ever again and thats the only real substantial upgrade left for you unless you're gaming only where the 5700X3D or 5800X3D is where you could upgrade. To be honest just wait and see what Zen6 (next year) and Arrow Lake (this October) from Intel bring in terms of performance because at some point you're going to need to get a new motherboard etc if you really need more performance/cores.

      If you're heavily tilted towards gaming and have a good GPU, then it's worth waiting for the 5700X3D.

      Otherwise, this deal is a fantastic balance between cost + productivity + gaming - and you can dump the difference in money into a better GPU.

      Well I was looking around last night and cheapest I could find on a 5600g was 188 so this seems good. Just bought the 5700g.

    • VishSunny on 09/09/2024 - 09:34
      +3

      5700G is similar performance to last gen 3700x, but with the integrated graphics and PCIE Gen 3 instead of Gen 4.
      Don't be confused with the 5xxx name.

      Price is ok. if you don't need integrated graphics, get the 5700x.
      I use it for a server CPU with HEVC transcoding and it works well. However idle power consumption is not as good as compared to an Intel CPU with QuickSync video

        5700G is similar performance to last gen 3700x

        Depends on use case, if cache is important (such as games) then it's close 3700X otherwise it should be closer to the 5700X.

    • yangmao on 09/09/2024 - 11:27

      Great produtivity CPU, can handle basic gaming without spending extras on GPU.

  • penguinswillrise on 09/09/2024 - 09:16

    Have a 3700x and a rx6800, worth upgrading if I'm considering a gpu upgrade in 2-3 years?

    • Yekul on 09/09/2024 - 09:23
      +2

      I would personally just hold out, use the time to save for a high end cpu from the x3d series, and then get a shiney new gpu and cpu (and mobo/ram) all together. Put aside $10 per week and you’d have a really solid gaming rig in 3 years time. As opposed to a hodge podge one based off an extremely aging ecosystem.

      Unless you’re running into serious issues the 3700x is no longer able to deal with?

      • penguinswillrise on 09/09/2024 - 11:35

        Thanks, makes sense to me. 3700X still working fine but i'm just looking forward as my build is pushing 5 years and my PSU just died so would be good to have contingencies.

    • vid_ghost on 09/09/2024 - 09:40

      5700X3D would be the best option.
      Otherwise change to a 7500F or 7600F with new board and DDR5 ram.

      That GPU (rx6800) is fine for now can last a while with 16GB's of ram

      • penguinswillrise on 09/09/2024 - 11:33
        +1

        I have an ITX build so the tax on new mobo etc will be significant outlay - will try to hold onto AM4 as long as possible then

    • nicolascage on 09/09/2024 - 10:42

      I upgraded to 7500F from 3600 and was worth it. CS2 fps from 90-160fps to 150-230fps after the upgrade. I'm using a 6700xt so I'll probably grab a 2nd hand gpu somewhere. grabbed the 7500F off AliExpress recently for $160 including cashback but bough the ram/motherboard/cpu fan locally

    • ItsMeAgro on 09/09/2024 - 17:15

      Do you want an upgrade that may not make a difference big enough to be noticeable without an FPS counter on the screen in many games?

      Some people will find that's worth it, but if I'm bothering to upgrade my CPU I want to see around 50% uplift, not 0-30%.

      I had a 2600k back in the day. Pretty good PC and lasted me a long time :)

      • Guessologist on 09/09/2024 - 14:15

        It's mental how far we've come in a couple of decades - can fully emulate every part of my first pc (166 MMX with a voodoo 2) running Win98 in 86Box on my current machine without it even breaking a sweat. Not a bad exercise if you feel like upgrading as it'll make you grateful for how good we have it these days!

    • goose25 on 09/09/2024 - 12:18
      +4

      Just a personal opinion, but it's not really worth jumping over to the AM4 platform just to get on this deal… Perhaps wait for an AM5 platform deal to come up instead (ryzen 7xxx or 9xxx models)?
      There's nothing particularly wrong with these 5xxx series CPUs, they are great value and plenty fast for most people, but they're becoming a little antiquated by technology standards, being 2 generations old (although it only seems like 1 based on the latest releases), and there isn't really any upgrade path once you have it.

  • oogeorge on 09/09/2024 - 11:45

    Would anyone recommend upgrading to this from an older i7 8086k? It's served me a good 5 years and wondering if it's the time to upgrade

    • BROKENKEYBOARD on 09/09/2024 - 11:51

      I'd say no, this is more for people that are already on AM4.

  • aboutconfig on 09/09/2024 - 12:01
    +1

    12400F has similar performance and is selling for $165 recently.
    So any $239 5700X is a rip off, $159 is a good price, and everyday price should be like $175 if the sellers want to get rid of the on hand stocks and push AM5 platform

  • mauricem on 09/09/2024 - 12:24

    Is the G the same performance as X? Thinking it could be handy in case of GPU card troubleshooting?

    • qwijibo on 09/09/2024 - 12:43
      +1

      The 5700G has less cache than the 5700X, and only supports pci-e 3.0 (vs 4.0 in the 5700X), so there is a performance hit (less cache would be especially noticable in gaming).

      Not really worth it for the rare use-case of debugging GPU card issues. Just buy a cheap second hand GPU off ebay for $20 or so.

    • aboutconfig on 09/09/2024 - 14:14

      6.7% slower

      • netjock on 09/09/2024 - 15:30

    Curious on what the general thoughts are on upgrading a Ryzen 7 2700x (105w MaxTDP) to this?

    It seems to be 27% faster for most applications whilst using less power.

    https://www.reddit.com/r/buildapc/comments/14zd1co/upgrading…

      +1

      power probably isn't the issue unless you run it full power all the time.

      Question is whether you would notice the difference at 27%?

      I went from 4th Gen into to 5600G. 4th not win 11 compatible and on SATA SSD so going to NVME is night and day. Roughly 4x the performance I can tell the difference.

      • ImportantCustomer on 09/09/2024 - 15:34

        Power = heat… but yes agree otherwise!

          +1

          Depends on use case, in some games it could be +50%. Also make sure that motherboard has some airflow over the VRM otherwise if you have the CPU running at 100% it might get very hot.

        • netjock on 09/09/2024 - 17:23

          Depends on what you use it for I guess.

          Stock cooler is useless.

          Got a big chucky cooler with 2 fans and CPU is 45C regardless.

          I don't do games so it could be if you play games it could be +50%

                @netjock: In a rare follow up, new CPU arrived and installed.
                - much faster (at least 50%)
                - much cooler (65w vs 125w)
                - much quieter (new 120mm fan)

                Tip for those replacing an AM4 cooler… don't unscrew all 4 screws from the cooler backing plate like online instructions tell you to do. Do two at a time MAX, otherwise you have to remove your motherboard.
