Currently on Ryzen 5 2600x and have got my eye on swapping that out for a Ryzen 9 5900x, or even a 5950x if prices drop even further. Buying into the AM4 architecture was clearly a fantastic move, it seems I'll get a huge boost in productivity yet still get to keep my motherboard and RAM. This is why I'm such a huge fan of AMD, even though they're now preparing to move up to AM5, I'll still get another three or four years out my AM4 based system before I need to make to jump across. To my mind that represents amazing value for money!

I'd like to see some more in depth discussions of upgrades of a Ryzen 3000 SYSTEM. Those who built a Ryzen midrange gaming rig who game in 1440p or some 4k. I imagine they want to hold on to their system for another 3-6 years and do a lot of gaming. So they plan to upgrade their GPU from, say, a 5700 or 2070, to a next gen card, also midrange. Thus, no GPU bottleneck. It seems like this gamer is BEST served with 5800X3D, right? If it fits in their budget, 4k FPS will look like 1080P with a next gen GPU, right?

Just did an upgrade from Ryzen 5 2600 to the new 5800X3D on my gaming desktop. Currently have a RTX 2070 on it. HUGE upgrade. Having the Samsung Odyssey G7, I can actually run games like CSGO at a perfectly sustained 240HZ at 1440p. It was difficult to keep it steady around 200 with some pretty heavy dips. But now its buttery smooth.

1000 to 5000 series makes a whole lot of sense. You got into AM4 at it's start, now a quick upgrade will future proof it to it's fullest potential. If you're looking at an upgrade 12 months from now, the equation will be different.
Personally, I run a 3700X and a 3950X and I'm fine with what I have got for some time to come.

How do you translate that 20% increase in performance from 3000 - 5000 series in terms of rendering ?? how do you translate that into minutes of rendering ?? Planning to upgrade from R5 3600 to R7 5800/R9 5950x for my Photoediting machine .. Gonna be using it on Photoshop, Lightroom and Premier Pro .. Gaming also ..

went from an R5 3600 to an R9 5950x, got a great deal on both ( 30 USD per core), with AM5 coming around the corner I wouldn't be surprised if the 5950x and 5900x keep dropping in price. definitely a worthy upgrade in all core and single core performance, especially for the sub 500 price from ebay.

Damn no benchmarks for 2000 series, I wanted to know if upgrading from a 2700x to a 5900x/5800x3d would net any noteworthy improvements in 4k gaming at high/ultra settings on a 3060ti. Very lacklustre video
P.S Less than 10% isn't noteworthy and less than 25% isn't worth an upgrade

I think the only thing comparable was the slot 1 motherboards in the 90s. Everything from a PentiumPro to a Pentium III. I don't think first gen slot 1 could support last gen CPU's though. AM4 is a very impressive achievement.

I have a ryzen 5 1600AF and the only logical upgrade for me is a 5500 because the 3600 is more expensive even tho the 5500 is bettter. But the main isue in my pc is the rx570 4gb gpu and I have a gigabyte M32Q 1440p 165hz monitor.....

I really want to upgrade my CPU from a 1700 to a 5000 series CPU but my motherboard from Asrock using the B350 is not supported and is not in the list of identified boards that is getting support. Really ticked off.
