It gets beaten by the 12900k at 1080p..

I suggest you read the article because how I see it. Some games are tied and some games AMD wins at 1080p. At 720p AMD advantage's grows and in certain games by a huge margin.
Also, I suggest you read the author's conclusion at the end of the article if you can't draw right conclusions yourself.

if you are gaming at 1440p and above most likely won't be worth it.

I know, you're perfectly right but i plan on not touching this pc for at least 3-4 years and get a new one PciE5/DDR5/AM5 in the future, that's why i want the best AMD has to offer on AM4.

Still not worth it. You will be going from a 5800X to a 5800X3D to gain 5%-%7 at 1440p in games and a regression in other workloads. That won't make a noticeable difference to the longevity of that system.

Maybe better silicon/temps and voltages at least.
I don't care about the slight regression in some workloads, all i care about is gaming and streaming+teamspeak/discord all working at the same time with no hitches.
I know you speak reason but as i said, i plan on this being the last money i spend on this pc, i'll hold on to it for as long as i can...that's my excuse, i'm sticking to it...

wouldn't higher core count help more with this sounds like a 5900X would be a better fit. I'm not telling you what to buy of course its your money.

I agree

I feel these chips are best served for anyone who has from 1000 to 3000 series CPUs. The fact that you can just buy the CPU and use all of your existing hardware make this in some ways academic. I am sure this will be one of their best sellers.. If the 5900X keeps falling in price though it is so many ways a much better chip to buy. I really want to see where these are actually priced.

 

[Yraggul666]

Yeah i'm not going the 5900X route, it's the X3D or i stick to the simple X.
Now i just have to see the pricing......

This statement helped me decide on my predicament for upgrading. In addition to those software, I run a VM on a regular basis. The more cores would be more beneficial. But the end goal for myself is to go to a 4K monitor. As shown in the early benchmarks provided in this news post as well as in W1zzard's review, the 5800X3D has no benefit as at that point, games are GPU bound. If I wanted to stay on my current 1080p monitors, then the 5800X3D could make more sense in gaming. But I do more than just game.

I decided to go with the 5900X. Additionally, I was able to pick up one for $365 (before taxes and the use of a handy gift card). Thank you @Makaveli for your advice as well as @TheLostSwede for providing the early benchmarks. I can say I have no regrets in my purchase

That's a great choice of CPU!
