    I have like a 2600 and want to upgrade. Y’all think AM4 is good? Would love an X3D chip.

    I know, I will be one of the very very few people, but I would like to have an X3D-CPU with a boxed cooler. I know. It is not “possible”, because the 3D-chip is raising the temperatures of the CPU. (I just don’t want to buy a cooler and start tinkering around with my sausage fingers -.-)

    I don’t get the point of this. 5600x3d and 5800x3d already exist. Seems like it just adds more complexity when there is already enough product segmentation.

    tbh the x3d chips are really only worth it if your GPU is insanely powerful. Otherwise its not gonna be able to take advantage of that 3d cache. And even then the price/performance isnt there.

    But this would be a cool option if it had a lower TDP compared to the 5800x3d (like with the 5800x vs 5700x)

    Sadly I am getting rid of my AM4 build before I upgrade it. I still have the USB dropout issue. I tired every fix known to man and narrowed it down to the AMD motherboard specific chipset. Can’t say I am happy AMD choose to not make this issue a recall. BIOS updates fixed it for some people but not others. Also depends on what you specifically use the USB ports for, external storage is the main problem next is USB DAC/AMPs people who dont use those things will likely never notice it.
