Asked By GamerDude42 On

I recently upgraded my GPU from a 3060 to a 5070 Ti, but I'm still using an AM4 motherboard with a Ryzen 5 3600. I'm considering getting a 5800X3D, but I find the price a bit steep. Can anyone recommend a good AM4 CPU that would pair well with the 5070 Ti, or should I just make the jump to an AM5 setup? For context, I mainly play games like Minecraft and Repo with heavy shaders and mods, so performance is key.

I recommend going for the Ryzen 5700X; it's around $180 and will be a nice upgrade from your 3600, especially for gaming with your new GPU. You can find good deals on it right now.

I saw the Ryzen 5 5800X on sale for $175 at Best Buy near me!

The Ryzen 5700X is a solid choice. It provides great performance and won't require a new PSU since it has a similar power consumption to your Ryzen 3600. If you're tight on cash, this option could work well until you're ready to build a new AM5 setup down the line. Plus, the X3D versions deliver significantly better gaming performance, but they do come at a higher price. If budget isn't a problem, consider upgrading to a new AM5 build instead!
