    AM4 has to be the GOATed platform of all time at this point. I can’t believe the mileage I’ve got out of my shitty mobo haha.

      I’m upgrading from a 2600 to the 5800x3d on my day off this Wednesday. Super pumped, can’t wait to see what the hype is about!

          This is pretty amazing. My motherboard doesnt officially support the older cpus but everyone ive tried in it works. Currently running a 2700x in it. Will likely upgrade to this or the 5800x3d next year.

          Being able to use this board for so many generations is awesome.

      Someone in 2017: “I’ll get a b350 motherboard and a cheap Polaris GPU, by the time they’re obsolete I’ll have enough saved to upgrade.”

      That same person in 2026: “Okay, time to try to build a $20,000 gaming PC…”

        Not far from my path.

        X370 when released, kept the mobo becauae no $$$ for cpu. Focused on work and forgot about it until 2700x came out. Used that… paired with my olde 1070 which i got from launch.

        Then took the 3080 for gpu upgrade to drive 1440p UW. Found the 2700x struggling. Upgraded to 5800x3d this year as a birthday treat.

        Now gonna change the mobo for a b550. The x370 is going to my wife rig with the 1070. Will be a home lab and clan server for games as well.

        AM4… thank you AMD… Goat of goatses of all goat time platform. Respect!
