AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D

Depends, what games are you gaming? Because there should be a difference on average of about 11% in fps going from a 3600X to a normal 5800X.

What is the rest of your system?

You will still miss out on PCI-E 4.0 with the B450 chipset even it's a fine board.

Thanks for your answers.
I've been playing Metro Exodus, Death Stranding, Cyberpunk 2077, Doom Eternal, Half Life: Alyx.
Regarding PCI-E 4.0 there's no problem because I own PCI-E 3.0 SSDs only and don't see any need to upgrade for my kind of use.

Not thinking much about SSD's here and i know that graphics cards loose about 5% at max but also gpu and so on because your system specs are out dated I guess.

I am running a Gigabyte M30 1TB NVME SSD that's only PCI-E 3.0 x4 as a boot drive and I use my Sabrent Rocket 4.0 2TB as a game library.

VR can be cpu heavy and Cyberpunk too but have you tried the MSI overlay via Rivatuner to see which maxes out at 99-100% doing games because it doesn't have to be CPU that holding you back but I guess for VR you would run a better then GTX 1070 as you state.

From Ryzen 5 3600 to 5800X3D: The Big Upgrade

Going from user feedback, it sounds like many are planning a final AM4 upgrade and you may be most interested in going all out on the 5800X3D,...

www.techspot.com

Yes there will be a difference. But it won't be noticable everywhere since you play at 1440p with a 3060Ti.
But the 3D will boost the fps your gpu can push.

Sorry, my specs were outdated on the tech power up forum preferences.
My setup is a MSI B450 Tomahawk Max, Ryzen 5 3600, 16gb DDR4 3600 CL16, Samsung 970 Evo nvme 1tb (OS and part of the steam library) and Samsung 850 Evo (the rest of the steam library), Qnix 27 inch IPS 1440p @90Hz and 23 inch 1080p @144Hz LCD, Asus Xonar audio card, etc.
I'm pretty happy with the performance but I keep reading several articles stating that the best value upgrade I could do at the moment is buying the 5800x3d, instead of having to buy a new motherboard, ddr5 and new cpu. Especially if I can find a 5800x3d for 350€. But the articles state that it's better to who plays at 1080p resolution.
What's your thoughts about this?
Thanks for your input

 

[gffermari]

In 1080p or in cpu bound games, you will see the biggest improvement.
But there is improvement in all resolutions, even in 4K but it depends on the gpu.

Your gpu is quite good, so I would personally make the move to 3D.

((Basically I already did it, moving from 3700X to 5800X3D, having a similar gpu))

Hi Guys, I own a ryzen 3600, a MSI b450 tomahawk max and a Nvidia 3060ti. I play games at 1440p.
Will I see significant performance gains if I upgrade to the 5800x3d or just isn't worth it?
Anyone here made the same upgrade?
Cheers

Look at the latest TPU article where a 5800x3D kept up with a 13900k, except at low res with a 4090

Is it more powerful than your GPU can provide? Yes.
(Lower settings and DLSS change this, a 3060Ti with DLSS on is going to be faster than a 3070 without it, and show benefits from the faster CPU)
But that just means you can reuse it for many years to come, since its low wattage, guaranteed to have compatible boards and RAM for sale for years, and will work with any future GPUs

Thanks for the tips. I'll keep an eye on prices and when I see the 5800X3D at less than 350 euros I'll buy it and sell my 3600. I feel like I don't have to rush it, prices will tend to decline, right.
Cheers

Prices will go down up and and repeat over time as the process matures - it's a popular CPU, but they dont want to flood the market with it either

Remember that even a plain old 5600 (no X or G) is going to be faster for gaming than your 3600, by quite a margin
