I'm considering a bundle at Microcenter that includes a motherboard, a 7800X3D processor, and 32GB of RAM for $580. Right now, I have a 5700X3D, 32GB of RAM, and an ASUS TUF motherboard. Do you think this upgrade is worthwhile if I sell my current parts together? I'm also wondering how much I might get for my old components, or if I should just wait for the AM6 platform.

What GPU are you currently using? If it's not a high-end model, like a top-tier GPU, upgrading the CPU might not show a big difference in performance for gaming.
I have a 5080 now; I swapped my 3090 for $300. I haven't noticed any issues with the 5700X3D, so I'm really torn on whether to upgrade.
