Is it worth upgrading from a 5600G to a 5700X for $100 considering I have a 6750XT?

I'm mostly gaming with WoW, browsing, and using my PC as an HTPC, but I'm considering an upgrade from my 5600G to a 5700X since I can get it for just $100. I don't plan to build a new PC until the AM6 platform comes out, which might be in 2027. Is this upgrade worth it?

If you're considering this upgrade, weighing in on the 5700X3D option is smart. It's roughly twice the upgrade potential, and considering AM6 might be delayed until 2028, it might be worth investing in the better CPU now. Just keep in mind that the 5700X doesn't come with a cooler, so make sure you have one that fits!

Yes, I think it's worth it! Just make sure to check if the cooler you have is sufficient for the 5700X, as the stock cooler for the 5600G might not cut it.

Absolutely, $100 is a great deal for that upgrade. The 5700X has better performance metrics, and you’ll definitely notice a difference in gaming and other tasks. It's a worthwhile jump for the price!

Upgrading from the 5600G to the 5700X is a solid choice for an extra $100, especially since the 5600G's performance is closer to the 5500. I recently helped my brother upgrade from a 3400G to a 5500 and he saw about a 20% FPS boost in several games with a similar GPU setup. That's a nice uplift, given you're already pairing it with a 6750XT!

You might want to think about whether you'd prefer the 5700X for $100 or maybe a 5700X3D for around $200, if you can find it. The 5700X3D offers more performance and could be a better long-term investment, especially for newer games like WoW, because of its extra cache.
