I'm currently using a Ryzen 3700X paired with a 7800XT and 32GB of RAM, and I've been playing most games at ultra settings in 1440p. So far, my performance has been great—averaging about 165 FPS in the games I play, including newer titles like Oblivion Remastered and Ghost of Tsushima. I'm curious about how long my 3700X will remain relevant before I need to upgrade, especially since I don't play a lot of new releases. Should I be worried about performance drop-offs in the near future, or can I hold off on upgrading to AM5?

It's hard to give a definitive answer since it really depends on the future of gaming. Game performance varies a lot based on upcoming titles and their graphical demands. Currently, if your 3700X is handling everything smoothly at ultra settings, you might not need to rush into an upgrade. Usually, people decide to upgrade when they notice their performance dipping below their standards. So, if it's working well for you now, just wait until you experience issues before spending more money!
Totally! As long as I can keep playing at high settings without lag, I think I'll be okay. Plus, if it’s lasted this long, I doubt it’ll fail me soon.
