[@andrewcutthroat31]

7800X3D and Sapphire Nitro+ 79000XTX are holding up great. we really need better GPUs at this point; i don't think i've ever seen my CPU past 70% util outside of testing.

[@SpoonHurler]

I have four Raijintek Ophion Evo M cases I got for some builds that I bought for 62 bucks. I plan to sell them all and got a 5500 for 83 bucks for what will be my lowest budget one that will sell really faster. I'm probably grabbing a 5700X3D for another to build a 1000-ish buck 4k build with a 6800XT I got laying around. It's a great time build if you are going for the highest end builds.

[@brandonpayne1207]

​@@andrewcutthroat31Especially running at 4k. A log of games are GPU limited so you won't even need a faster CPU. I'd say 70% CPU utilization is getting up there though but most games aren't that CPU demanding.

[@andrewcutthroat31]

@@brandonpayne1207 i've only hit 70% on M&B:BL2 with a mod that lifts the unit cap, ~2000 independent units running around makes the cpu work lol. and i've been playing in 4k, it's unbeatable clarity. most games work with everything on ultra, but there are some poorly optimized AAA games where i can only get 60 ish frames.

The first three times I tried to access this video, KZbin warned me this was a sponsored video, instead of letting me watch the video. The most irritating thing about this is that, not only do they not provide a way to bypass their warning, they also don't add the video to my history, and since when I back out of theur warning, I have a whole new list of recommended videos, so I have to do a search for the video. Is KZbin deliberately trying to make my KZbin experience as distasteful as possible?

There's a way to swap out a part in the bundle while keeping the discount for the other parts. I would've used that to swap out a better motherboard, but you're still getting an amazing deal.

[@brandonparker1001]

A month ago from Micro Center got the 7800x3D for $197.12 on a bundle deal with my MSI B650 MAG Tomahawk WiFi for $199.99 and G.Skill Trident Z5 Neo RGB Series 32GB for $117.99. Their Special Savings with 32GB DDR5-6000 RAM plus Motherboard Bundle Savings is awesome! Worth the 6 hour round trip drive from our home and they had 24 months 0% financing at the time and extra $20 off AMD Bundles too! This was my 1st Micro Center adventure, loved it! The Detroit roads could use some repaving though! OMG lol

[@jjglaser]

I remember back in the day when pc parts were expensive.

[@ilovelimpfries]

I just bought a new 7500f for $130. I'm pretty sure there's nothing that can beat that in price/performance. I was thinking of waiting for the 9600, but I'm pretty sure it'll still be $200+ till the mid of next year.

[@puffyips]

you’re 100% correct 💪 7500f for $130 FTW im about to cop one for a secondary $750 total budget build on AM5 and people say AM5 is still expensive 🥱

[@PCBuilderChannel]

7500F for $130 is amazing! And now that you are on AM5, in a couple years you'll just drop in a 9800X3D or 11000X3D or whatever they call Zen 6 X3D. You can't really go wrong.

[@B_Machine]

I think it would make th most sense for AMD to release the new x3d chips just in time for the new gpus. If they release a 16 core all v-cache CPU, that'll be nuts.

[@patsk8872]

No real access to 7500f in the US, but I got the 7600 for $190 which I felt was quite decent. Although I wish I had just spent more to get an 8 core, like the 7700 on sale for $250. Then I'd just have 8 good cores and not have to worry about it anymore.

[@P5YKOTIK1870]

Great video, The microcenter down the street has 7800x3d for $320 and the 7900x3d for $310 which is crazy. Kind of disappointed with the leaks of the 9000 series so far and not being faster than the 7800x3d. Kind of just feels like a refresh until the 9800x3d comes out

[@RYU47376]

i think you should add watt/performance, i think thats a big deal for a lot of people and also for people looking to make an sff PC, where cooler max tdp is severely limited

[@weolo]

Thanks for the video, this was exactly the questions I have been asking myself, and it helped a lot. My PC is old, it copes just fine with the game titles I currently own so normally I would not be looking to upgrade. But I want to start doing Unreal Engine Editor game design, and also having a faster PC for gaming as well. So this is the first time I am not going with upgrade a few parts but going with a complete rebuild from the ground up of everything. I have done my research using your videos on compatible parts to avoid bottlenecks, and looked up the recommended specs for an Unreal Engine Editor machine. If I was going with a budget PC, or mid range PC (which is what I normally aim for) I would be grabbing it right now. But this time I want a high end build so I am going to have to take that gamble and wait to see how the 9000x series perform. I should still be able to follow the advice from your Prime sale day video and grab some of the components then. But I will have to wait on choosing the motherboard and CPU.

[@omegamark4155]

I would recommend reversing the spreadsheet columns with bi-monthly prices to go from left to right, as you are doing progression. Also, you have 'Change' at the end, so it would make sense to have the latest relative prices right next to it. Adding original retail prices might be useful as well. If you want to keep the monthly columns as they are, at least put 'Change" after 'CPU', so it is next to the relative (latest) month. It would make the chart more efficient/easier to read. :)

Love this channel and your 23:00 thoughts about arrow lake really hit home. I watched some of the promos about the mobile version and how complex the cpu's architecture has become (the different cores and cache types and buses for them). It will be so interesting to see if it works or if there's some bugs the general public will uncover. I've been wanting to upgrade my 12400F to a 14th gen due to a game I play that would benefit, but not for the current prices. Thanks for all the analysis!!!

ah one drive to to the detroit area from west michigan to grab a 7900 xtx Sapphire nitro for 800$; caused me to make a stop at micro center and spend and extra 1400 on a whole new build. Did get a 7800x3d, but didn't do the bundle because they don't allow ram swaps and I really didn't like the motherboard. I highly recommend the 670E Tomahawk Wifi and the teamgroug rgb ram at 6000 cl 30.

[@nikkfrostt]

Thanks for the heads up. Checked my motherboard and now i'm going Ryzen 2700 -> Ryzen 5500. In Canada our local store has them for 80$cad and free shipping. I haven't looked at the cpu market since before covid, so this is probably one of the craziest price drops I've seen so far.

[@Arkangel0187]

I noticed you recommend a mid tower air cooler for the 5700x3d...Im wondering if the Vetroo V5 in a push/pull config would be sufficient cooling for it? It's more of a budget tower, but.....I'm hoping it can be the "little cooler that could", because I really like the look of it and am loathe to switch to something else. (I have the pink one). But if you think it wouldn't cool the 5700x3d sufficiently I can look into getting a different one.

[@wylergiordani7210]

[@userbunny14]

why does Canada never see these price changes? The 7800x3d has been sitting at $488 since I started looking at PC parts in early March. I ended up going with the 7600x cause it was half the price and still was good enough for what I need it for, but it would have been nice to have the x3d.

[@SpoonHurler]

I agree with you on the 9600X because the biggest upgrade will be tyebmemory controller but the number of people buying a 6c12t chip buying DDR5-7200+ RAM right now is very low. I do think the rest of the ryzen 9000 series will be viable upgeades potentially but we have to wait for actual reviews.

[@NGreedia]

cpus and other components have seen some really nice prices in 2024. it's a shame gpu prices haven't moved at all for the past 2 years. hopefully prime day will see at least some movement. I've seen the Ryzen 5500 going for $73 back in 2022 holidays/black friday. 5700x3d and 7600 have been as low as $130 recently if you were willing to take a chance on aliexpress

[@Jomi91]

How long did 5000 series take to bottom out after the release of 7k series? Seems to me like it was 6mo but I only had a brief look at the graphs.

[@ryangardinerusa2753]

I was thinking about the used market for AM4, for a couple budget minded builds, and came across the 3700X. I checked one out and compared it to the 5600. It’s cheaper and performed about 5-18% better on a few games at 1080p and some low-medium settings at 1440p. Might be worth looking into.

[@CleveDawgPound]

I think others have mentioned but if you live close to a Micro Center prices are even better in store. $320 today for a 7800x3d

[@AverageGreg]

I noticed you had the 12600k and 12700k paired with DDR4 for the budget gaming and DDR5 for the midrange production. But I noticed that they were missing from the midrange gaming list. Was the pairing of a 12600k or 12700k with DDR5 not enough to make the midrange gaming cutoff?

[@jjglaser]

Happy I just got the 7900x3d for video editing, 3d work, encoding and gaming. Got onto the AM5 platform and now I can just drop a new Zen 6 cpu into my motherboard when its on sale in 2027 :)

These price cuts are coming in clutch! I want to build myself a new rig this summer. My 10 years old one has held up nicely but I need an upgrade. I was thinking of going with a Ryzen 7600 and a MSI MAG b650 Tomahawk Wifi. Is this MSI board good for a 7800x3d? If the prices keep going down and the 7800x3d dips below 310euro (I buy from German Amazon) I’d consider getting it instead. Since the 7600 is 180 euro right now.

So I made this build in PC Part Picker Germany. It's list / VnmrkJ if using a 7600 lt's list / B8RvMV if using a 7800X3D Same build just with an 850W over 750 with a 7800X3D.

I like getting high end Nvidia graphics cards. I usually upgrade every generation but I'm still on AM4 and I'm still paying off an Nvidia graphics card that I got on credit. It's not that I couldn't save up for it but rather I didn't want to wait. I've been on AM4 since 2019. Before that I was on Intel Z97 for 5 years and stuck with my hardcore quadcore Haswell CPU. I generally update my platform every 5 years and it's getting about time to update to AM5 but I may wait another year to make that jump. I don't feel it's as necessary to upgrade from AM4 as it was with Intel z97.

[@theonerm2]

@@PCBuilderChannel Yeah. That's true. That would be a decent boost to gaming performance but my other tasks might suffer a bit. The x3D CPUs are a bit weaker in other areas besides gaming. I want 12 cores but I'm not sure I'd want the 7900x3D and the x3D chips on AM4 are all maxing out at 8 cores. I do game development, animation, 3D modeling, Ai related tasks on my device which is why I have 128GB of RAM to be able to run some bigger Ai models that won't fit in vRAM. Also some minor video editing. I'd like more cores for the other tasks besides gaming.

The better stay here i get paid after the weekend and need to grab the 7800x3d, new motherboard and new ram. Need me a nicrocenter bundle deal! Lol im so so happy we can upgrade on the platform of the best gaming cpu on the market. Thank god it leaves room for an uograde later which is awesome. Intel idk who is going with them right now when lga1700 is dead after this generation. The 5700x3d at 199 is isnane though wow. 5800xed is almost gone and wont be no more so if yall want one gran one even if a little more. I will say the best buy on this entire list for the price is that 7600. It beats the 5700x3d also.

I have heard totally conflicting things. Some say the 9000X3D was supposed to launch in July but they missed the window, some say AMD will hold it back until 2025 because they don't want Ryzen 9000 non X3D parts to languish unsold. Others say that the whole thing was supposed to come out at the same time in September but then they moved up the non-x3d parts. So your guess is as good as mine right now!

I am thinking about doing a new build with the 7900X3D while it's on sale, but there doesn't seem to be many recent videos about which AM5 motherboards are most reliable etc. Everything is from a year ago, back when the BIOS was a lot older. I need 3-4x M.2, a full set of audio jacks with ALC1220 or better ( I use analog 4.0 audio plus Mic and Line input), stable ethernet, and full Linux support. Basically all the stuff nobody else cares about LOL. I can't decide between MSI, AsRock or Gigabyte. Right now MSI Tomahawk and Carbon are most interesting to me, but I always find people talking about problems with long POST times etc. Gigabyte and ASRock seem to mostly use the old ALC897 audio chip. It seems like there's trade-offs everywhere I look. EDIT: I might add that this is a workstation build. I'm only using an RX6600, and don't really play games on it. My current system is a Ryzen 3700x.

If you can't save then how would you pay the monthly payments for the loan? Do yourself a favour and save what you can then when you finally have enough the next gen cpus will be out and you'll get more for your money. If you save you'll also get credit interest which will help and you won't have to worry about a monthly payments. Loans are for when you're impatient.

I've got an i7-6700k, running on an outdated motherboard. The strat I'm zeroing in on is to hold for a 7800X3D or a 7900X3D at around black Friday. Hopefully by then new cpu's will bump the price, and time will have also undermined the price a little. If that combines with a sale, then I can get one of the new X870 motherboards and cover some of the cost with what I'd save in sales. Of course, this will depend on 7800/7900 prices not running up in July, but fingers crossed. A build like that could live for four or five years, and once AMD ends AM5 support, I can buy the best AM5 cpu and extend my investment for another five years.

I cant see the jump from 7k to 9k to be as great as the 5k to 7k. We went from ddr4 to ddr5 last gen which gave the 7600 5k series 3D v-cache performance. So id guess we'll see the 9800 gaming performance to still be under the 7800x3D by a small amount but i suspect the power draw will be the same as 7k series but with better performance.

yeah i think the same thing, No point in waiting on a rig, grab a 7800x3d if anyone wants the best gaming cpu now is the time to get one. Most likely what is gonna happen is when the 9k series drop and the 7800x3d is shown to be faster, the 7800x3d price will rise up.. prices increase based on demand, and all its gonna take is a few benchmarks and then people who are waiting will start buying and the price will go up..

[@burnitdwn]

I think the 5800x3d likely to keep going up in price. It pretty much always happens, the "top cpu" of the old socket almost always keeps a high price as its a "simple" drop in upgrade. I wonder if the 5950xt is going to bring down the cost of 16 core AM4 computing to a nice level. I would love to upgrade my old AM4 box to something with a few more cores to compile code faster, give virtual machines more CPUs to play with, and run dedicated servers for games. I wish i had upgraded from 32gb to 64gb of ram back when it was cheaper. On the plus side, i did grab 3 "2tb" nvme ssds back when they were a lot cheaper. I wonder if Q3 or Q4 we will see Ram prices coming back down, but I think the collusion of the mfg industry is going to keep ram prices high.
