Question Can you help me decide for which AM4 CPU to buy plz?

[akromakosan]

Hello, i have a friend who recently bought a 7700XT for a very cheap price (which is upgrade from GTX 1660) but his CPU is r5 1500x and i know it has much bottleneck i guess. Cus of he already has AM4 mobo(MSI A320M Gaming Pro), he wanna get a AM4 CPU and his aim is to get good fps from that CPU in World of Warcraft(only game he plays i guess). He dont have much budget but have options like r7 5800X , r7 5700X3D and i dont know if he can afford 5800X3D. So my basic question wud be which one to choose exactly, 5800X or 5700X3D? Or if u have any other suggestions plz. And there wud be much difference if he get one of those CPUs considering his r5 1500X ? I will be happy if u help plz, thanks

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

I'd stick to a 5600x, provided the motherboard's BIOS is flashed to the latest BIOS version.

5700X3D. Barring that, a 5600X is still fine.

Just make sure to update the BIOS before upgrading the hardware.
