Hey guys,
Last year I bought a Ryzen 5 3600 with a x570 board (Asrock Pro4 ) and BeQuiet Black Rock Pro4 with the intention of upgrading some time in the future. Now that the prices and some specs of the Zen3 architecture are leaked my question is:
Should I buy a Ryzen 9 3900x right now, because i can get it for around 400€. The price for the R7 5800x is leaked to be 449USD, that will be around 480+€ when it gets here where I live (based on the price back when R5 3600 launched).
I mainly use my PC for 1440p gaming (paired with a strix 1080ti). From time to time I do some video/photo editing but nothing too crazy. I do stream but with that my current cpu isn't breaking a sweat.
I, personally, do not think the 5800x will outperform the 3900x (and i do get 4c8t more), but even if it does so I doubt it will be worth 80+€ more.
Feel free to share your thoughts and opinions!
