Buying a new PC urgently

[Ruru]

I'd probably just get a 5800X (with or without the 3D cache) as I'm not in a hurry of moving away from AM4. Though my current 3600 is more than enough for me for a while.

and your point is ... ?
this thread is about building a new computer, from scratch obviously if you're already invested into the AM4 ecosystem you'd just do a pop-in upgrade but for those who aren't, generally in like 95% of all cases ADL > Vermeer

i mean you can do that too but why not just buy one w/o? The only SKU that doesn't have an E-core less counterpart's the 12700(K) ...

Stock (or lack thereof). Or, in my case, spending most time on Linux and hoping that a proper scheduler will pop-up some day.
Once again, not something you'd normally do, but the option is there.
