haha im still on a R5 2600X and i do plan on going to a 5800X3d at some point in time.

I just hope when that time comes the 5800X3D hasnt been discontinued for several years lol.

Last time that happened to me the last viable chip from one generation was when i had a Phenom II X4 955 and wanted to get into a Phenom II X6 1100T before having to overhaul everything.

Except by the time i was willing and ready to upgrade we were well into the Ryzen 3000 era (i went with a 2600X because it was near end of life and pricing was favorable for it)
