Hey everyone! I'm currently using a Ryzen 5 3600 paired with a 7800 XT and I've found a used AMD 5800X3D for $300 CAD. I'm wondering if this is a good upgrade or if I should consider other options. What do you think? Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

It really depends on how much cheaper you can get a 5700X3D or even consider going for a new setup with the Ryzen 5 7600. Those options could save you some money while giving a decent performance upgrade.
Exactly! The 5700X3D isn't necessarily cheaper at the moment.
So, how does the 5700X3D stack up against the 5800X3D? Would it be worth it to just stick with my current setup longer?
Great question! The difference is minimal; the 5800X3D is slightly faster but often at a higher price, so it boils down to whether the price difference is justifiable for you.
I found the 5700X3D at about $400 CAD on Amazon. If you can get the 5800X3D for $300 CAD, it seems like a decent deal!
I agree. A new setup can be pricey, but if you get a good deal, it might be the way to go!
