Sorry there was a mix up with the editor, the original thumbnail and title that were up for a few minutes are for part 3. It's fixed now, sorry everyone

Everything keeps going up except my paycheck.

I went from an R5 2600 to a 5700x3D this month. Absolutely insane upgrade. Like it completely refreshed my system. If you're still on OLD (1000, 2000, 3000) AM4 definitely recommend upgrading within AM4.

Petition to rename Ultra settings to Unoptimized settings

Ultra is/was the setting I want to use when I replay the game in 4-5 years after it came out initially.

Default Overclocking Intel MB partners: It's the same picture

I built my son a PC for Christmas. Wasn't quite 2024, but I went AM4 because I had a spare kit of DDR4 kicking around. 5600 + MSI Pro mATX board ran about 400 dollars CAD. Even with AM5 boards coming down in price, I wouldn't be able to put together an AM5 setup for that price.

23:07 I'm with Tim. "End of Life" ("EOL") in this context is more of a technical term, meaning roughly the stop date for the manufacturing of the product. Intel will usually release a "Product Change Notification" (PCN) with a number of milestones, one of which is the last date that you can put in an (non-cancelable, non-returnable) order. Once that date arrives, they can 'cook' the last batch and the product is tagged as EOL.

To the point about legacy ports on motherboards. I used to work as an IT technician in a UK secondary school and many of the monitors the school had only had VGA ports. We're talking old monitors that the only reason they hadn't been thrown out was because they still worked. Finding the money to get replacements for equipment like this was also difficult.

I genuinely think that for the people who live in the real world, Zen 3 is still a perfectly viable option. I know it might not be the most representative sample, but most players on Steam are still on Zen 2 and a GTX 1060 or an RTX 2060/2070. I wish I had the money to get the best of the best but it's moving so fast... It's impossible to keep up unless you're ok with spending thousands of dollars/Euros/Pounds every 2/3 years. So yeah, while it may not be the most "future proof" thing to do (we all know it's BS anyway), AM4 with something like a ZEN 3 CPU should be more than enough for most people for a "real world" usage. PS: Still learning English so be kind to me :D

I wanted to upgrade my brother's PC to AM5 this Christmas, but it turned out the cheapest AM5 combo was twice as expensive as AM4 w/ an R5 3600. As much as AM5 would help with future upgrades and current performance, and taking into account the kind of games he's playing rn and that he's still running on a Polaris card, I deemed it not worth it.

About the PS/2 and VGA ports, the same is true for Serial and Parallel which are supported on some motherboards - as Steve says, it is about industrial companies. They test and certify that connector X configured in a certain way in an installation (or Docker image) is known to work for that one particular use-case, and then stick with that setup. The more things they change, the more money they have to spend going through the re-certification process. Banking and Railways are two industries where this is a big issue.

i am it in a company ..... half the monitors (about 800 computers ) if not more are still VGA when it comes to buisness and datacenters vga is still very widely used especially for tasks that do not need a fast pc and just need any pc !

Ive just bought a 5800x3d as ive been on am4 for years already. I'm getting close to 200 frames on all favourite games at 1440p so i cant see why i would need to go to AM5 anytime soon

Two things I think should be understood about the AM4 situation. The first is that there will likely always be a market for older Zen1/+ CPUs. There are people talking about just upgrading from 2000 series to a 5000. I'd imagine they wouldn't mind posting their old CPU up on Ebay that someone in some other region would be interested in because the latest are still way too expensive. The next is acknowledging that the fix for forward compatibility on boards with small ROMs was to remove features and older CPU support. That creates 2 very legitimate potential problems. Users upgrading their BIOS to support a new chip that disables the support for the old chip, which could leave them without a working computer if they update before having the new CPU in hand, or got a DOA or failure. The next issue is for people getting those CPUs 2nd hand, but not having boards available that haven't been updated. I work at a computer repair shop and have had a lot of AM4 systems come in. One user needed us to update his BIOS because he literally tossed his old CPU in the trash before doing it himself. I have the wherewithal to know a BIOS update can leave a system inoperable if it removes support for the current CPU, but I know not everyone working in such a place is going to. It's not uncommon to consider a BIOS update as a resolution to any number of issues, and not everyone is going to read the notes. They are still releasing AM4 CPUs, and there needed to be room to address them in the ROM. It doesn't seem appropriate to suggest that the only motivation was that AMD was trying to pull a fast one. With AM5, they've mandated larger ROMs and flashback support as standard. Those things clearly point to an intention of mitigating those drawbacks that existed with AM4.

Always a pleasure watching you too discuss current topics. If you get sec, 2 boards I'm interested in as get so many questions over them on local forum are the B650 Eagle AX as the vrm seem better than the more expensive B650 Gaming AX and also the asus tuf a620 gaming wifi, as on paper, it seems to be much more compelling than other a620 boards as has a 12+2 50a vrm setup which seems a lot more than the a620 board you tested earlier in the year..also 2.5gb lan. I don't see any reviews for either of these boards so shedding some light would be great. I'm hesitant to recommend an a620 board for gaming, esp on back of that asus prime a620 you looked at awhile back

I use a VGA output on one of these boards for playing old games ion a CRT monitor. Sometimes i use steam remote play to play modern ones. So it has it's niche use. I work in industrial electronics engineering and there are still some VGA systems, but they are normally purpose built systems and not consumer mainboards.

We use KVMs that still have PS2 and VGA connections for our shared computers housed in server rooms at uni. Students remote into them using RDP or SSH but for us having re-use of 50 to 100 KVMs reduces costs when needing to stand in front of the machines.

You say that but recently put a new system together for my dad with an APU so needed motherboard outputs. I forgot how old his screen is and only have DVI and VGA. No dvi on the mobo so had to use the vga. Without it would have needed a new screen or at least a proper converter!

Overclocking wise I do like core sync and to take the turbo time limits off. This tends to be stable and lets you get those maximum rated speeds a lot more often.

AMD knows that Zen6 has to be on AM5.

I still use my older DasKeyboard, it has 2 USB 2.0 cables coming out of it, if you want N-key roll over you have to use the PS/2 adapter.

I had good ddr4 ram so I upgraded to b550 and a ryzen5600. I didn't have the budget for a newer platform. The b450 mobo and ryzen 2600 is still in use in the house too for the kids

I don't have too much to say. I've been using a different mechanical 60% keyboard atm. I like how I have much more desk space now and every key sounds glorious with that RGB special effects.

Would you guys do potential overclocking guide on 6xx motherboards and am5 CPUs and Undervolt in the same video ? That would be lovely to be seen from your side of expertise

I bought my AM5 expecting a minimum of one more generation. I will buy the biggest baddest CPU of that generation when AM6 comes out and its as cheap as possible and hold that for as long as I can. My 4th Gen I5 4460 lasted me 10 years I dont see why I would ever get AM6.... Maybe AM9..

On Zen6 AM5 support a compromise could be some high end CPUs using a derived socket perhaps branded Thread Ripper, supporting more PCIE & memory channels. If Zen5 is launched and they don't confirm Zen6 on the socket, then that's the time to suspect the plan hit snags.

14:39 "Shy are people still obsessed with Ultra settings?" This is something that has irritated me for a long time. My guess it's somewhat connected with the consoles and the PC superiority claims. Let me go a bit back in time. When MechWarrior 2 and MW2 Mercenaries were released there were originally no hardware 3D support, and when looking at VGA cards there weren't really much in the way of hardware support for 2D graphics. It all was done in software. Yet the games supported resolutions and options that made it run as a slide show if you maxed everything. This was as close to "Ultra settings" as you can get, but even the best hardware available at this time resulted in something like 1 - 3 FPS no matter how much money you were able to throw at it. A few years later there was a patch to Mercenaries that allowed it to run with 3DFx Voodo cards, and it was a real upgrade. Still max settings were a slideshow. The idea of including these settings was not because they were usable, but because in a few years they might be usable, and I can't remember that people complained over the games being badly optimized or anything. Thing is we knew that the extreme setting were not usable now, but maybe in the future. Interstate 76 was the same. You tweaked the settings to suit your hardware, and no one could really tun the game at max settings of everything in any reasonable framerate. Yet there were not that much complaints about that. Now there was complaints over general stability and that was totally valid. With patches and faster hardware the game just got better with time as more and more of the high quality graphics options could be raised. Then came the big console leap. I'm mostly talking about Playstation and XBox. The thing is you really didn't have much to say about the graphics and game settings. But it worked. This schooled generations of players that games were to just work, which was not really how PC games had behaved. Now that the users were console schooled expectations of new PC gamers changed. As everything is supposed to work max settings are expected to be usable. if they are called Max, Ultra or whatever doesn't matter. People enables it all and are disappointed when the game becomes a slide show. Now in some games this will work with a Halo GPU like the 4090, but not really with anything less. Then people still feel cheated when their 4070 or RC 7700 presents less than 60 FPS, or even worse less than 30 FPS. This is irritating for me. Ultra settings are just that Ultra. They are not something you should expect to work at good performance with the hardware available as the game is released. Max settings is a bit harder to value. It could be just like Ultra, but it could also be something for the currently fastest hardware. It will still be there in a few years, and by then the hardware might just be able to use those settings and present a decent FPS.

In terms of old I/O options I believe still having VGA makes a lot more sense than having PS2 ports because the likelyhood of an older monitor still functioning is bigger than an old keyboard and/or mouse doing so, specially considering some old devices were built with the mindset of actually lasting and if needed getting repaired rather than being tossed aside and replaced after a short time. I've had an old MAG XJ CRT monitor that was purchased around the time we had an old Athlon and a P3 and said monitor only called its quits about the time the first gen of Intel's Core series came around. In comparison I've had a much much newer Smart Tv that had to be replaced after far less usage.

Regarding legacy ports like VGA, you can always buy an adaptor, like DP to VGA. But in terms of parrallel ports, often in the 90s or early 2000, there were fabrication systems or other industrial machinering (think a metal plate cutting machine, that was designed to run on these ports at the time. And they machines still run, and perform well, so they need older ports to make them work when the computer driving it from the 90s finaly dies.

I just built a system with AM5(R5 7600x) about 2 weeks ago, I really hope AMD give AM5 Zen 6 support, platform longevity was the reason I went with AM5 over Socket 1700 as Intel has ended support for it with 14th gen. I would really like to upgrade to 11000 series.

what camera are u guys using? it feels like ur in my room right now....im watching u on a hp x27i 1440p 144hz :)

Must be taken in consideration price per wafer when talking about CPUs. That can go pretty high if there are problems related to production.

I got an AM4 motherboard last week (the MSI B550-A Pro) because the one i got in 2018 (MSI B350M Gaming Pro) wasn't being supported anymore. It's the last AM4 thing I will be buying, period. It's very solid. I'd already upgraded to the 5800X3D and RX 7900XT by that point. That system saw 2 new CPUs and 2 new GPUs since I bought it (3700X from 1700X and 3060Ti from GTX 1080 before the current spec).

My next build is just waiting for the next gen of all products to launch, I have no idea what platform I will be on although it will most likely be a X3D CPU just for gaming. Not even gonna guess which team for GPU I will be on.

What's better for content creation/production work? an X3D? or a non-X3d?

For all the trouble I had with AM4(7700x and 7900X3D), I held on to a 5950x/6900xth build.

shopped for a b660 with a PS/2 port because parting with the MS ergonomic keyboard I was using for >16yrs means I'd probably have to part with 400 usd on some limited run ergo board that would last, msi did have some z690s with a ps/2 too.

5600x is such a beast of a cpu that I struggle to see any reason for most people to do a whole new build

lol I got to the end of the video and thought I might as well play some Quake Champions

There are a lot of KVM switches out in the wild that use PS/2.

thank god im currently upgrading to am5 now. i have planned just to buy a good b550m motherboard for my 5600 but then i thought heck i shouldve better upgrade while i can. now i have 7500f, ddr5 6000 and just waiting for my b650m motherboard to arrive

I was buying a fairly expensive AM4 board for my sons build recently and was surprised to see a PS2 port on it. I switched that one to a Gigabyte board to NOT have a board with PS2 on it. Maybe I could have pulled out a ball mouse or old ass keyboard and made him use it.... ;)

Maybe I'm remembering wrong, but wasn't there certain situations where PS/2 mice were better than usb mice. Something about polling and the way the mice reported to the cpu.

I just got an asus x670 mobo for my 7950x3d. Should I be turning on the ai overclock feature?

16:22 The game _Tomb Raider: Legend,_ from 2006, had what I think is the correct answer to that question, at least in terms of naming. There was an option called Next Generation Content, which used completely different rendering. It wasn't completely stable, and it's debatable whether it really looked better, but the concept is sound - call settings that aren't supposed to work with contemporaneous graphics cards "Next Generation", and it's clear that this is something that should only be used in the future when hardware has become notably faster.

That's incorrect about VGA & PS/2. The reason for VGA ports is because it still makes the screen react much quicker than DVI/DisplayPort or even HDMI, it has much lower input latency than all of them. That's why extreme overclocking boards still have them. Same reason why the PS/2 port is still on some extreme overclocking boards over USB because USB does not work the same way as PS/2 port & during an extreme overclocks the USB keyboards cannot react fast enough to enter bios. the PS/2 port works by using ultra-low level interrupts to the board. While the USB works on signal clock, for which with certain overclocking tunes can be completely ignored by the board.

do you think an x3d version of zen5 will be also 6month later as zen4 was?

If I had to guess, I'd say we will still get Zen 6 on AM5, and then some SKUs here and there. Like Zen 4, Zen 7 will likely just be a rather minor change with next-gen memory (DDR6) support.

Question, If the motherboard settings tune the ram, is there really a difference in intel vs. amd ram? Or is that just marketing. I currently have intel ram in my amd system and tuned it to what I wanted.

AM5 end of life question probably meant that, there were "rumor" or extracted microcode (mis)interpretation about a possible AM5+ update? My question is, what`s a good AM5 motherboard(ATX) with 2 USB 3.0 front header ( + 1 type C, and 3 or more m.2 slots)? Something like the X670E Steel Legend / Pro RS. Not many (if any) B650 has this, sure I could buy a PCI add in card. But that could disable bottom m.2 slots maybe(?). I have a Lian Li 216 case with the extra USB panel/RGB control thingy, and using a B550 MSI Gaming plus motherboard (m.2 slots are filled). Thanks in advance.

Entry level is definitely AM4 for New Zealand - save up to $200 for a core kit compared to an AM5 core kit!

I wonder when PCIe 5.0 x16 will be required for new graphic cards. Will 5000 series ? 6000?

Ultra settings is definitely in the PC Master Race meme zone.

I hope a lot of locals with new computers and having VGA ports is great because a lot of them don't need to upgrade their monitor for what they do.

BTW, where do they get these questions from? Patreon?

My understanding is that PS/2 ports is that they are interrupt based and not polling based like a USB peripherals.

I got a 5800x3d in March & I am beyond satisfied. For what I do it is fantastic. Im using a 3070TI & I'll probably upgrade to a new gpu next year. But I'm just so happy with my system right now it's not even on my mind.

I hope so but sincerely doubt it would come to fruition.

I expect we'll find out the answer to Zen 6 on AM5 at the AMD Keynote on June 2nd (NA time), so only 5 weeks away! .. and who knows, maybe a 5090 announce from Jensen that same day too, since he does have a "keynote".

Im using PBO2 on my 5800x3D. I get a little bit more frequency but it runs on average 10 degrees C cooler than stock. It would constantly sit in the mid 80c before.

The cheap MOBOs are usually revamped from OEM designs, they just keep the same functions with a different paint for the off the shelf market

What AIO is shown in 17:53 and is it any good?

Thinking about upgrading my i9 10850k to 7800X3D, still worth the upgrade ? Already have a 4090

Dx12 Ultimate vs Vulkan?

Technically, if you are not counting the x3D variations, then AM4 lasted for only 4 years, 2016-2020 (which is still a lot but not as long as what people claim it to be). Zen 6 should still definitely be supported lol.

If you already on am4 and using like a 1000-3000 ryzen cpu with a decent motherboard. I think just upgrading to 5000 series you can get huge performance increase just swapping your CPU. I went from 3600 to 5800x3d. Huge gains and especially gaming performance is up there with the current gen. AM4 is magic

I use a VGA port because it's enough for me and because I use a KVM switch to connect the computers of some of my clients. And no, I don't have neither the space nor the budget to have two sets of monitors, keyboards and mouses.

I was one of those early adopters of AM5, and because I was chasing high end Audio, I ended up paying over $800 (Australian Dollars) for ROG Strix X670E-F Mother Board. Of course, less than 6 months later, they announce the X3D CPU's, after I'd purchased the Ryzen 7 7700X......wish I'd known that was coming..... So I'd really be pissed if they went to AM6 with literally only 1 upgrade since I purchased my upgrade in November of 2022.

Zen 4's low sales is due purely to LGA socket and high AM5 motherboard prices because of said LGA socket. I still haven't sold a single one to a customer who still want AM4 CPU's and motherboards.

Concerning Zen 6 on AM5 - They could always release Zen6 on both AM5 and AM6 thereby keeping everyone happy (it should be quite easy to disable extra memory channels that Zen 6 might have that AM5 socket hasn't got) !

Been rocking my 5950x rig since 2021. I plan on skipping am5 altogether and will upgrade when am6 hits. The only upgrade i did was a 3070 to 7900xt. With decent curve + pbo settings my rig will last me regardless. I personally wouldn't build an am4 rig at this point either but those who are stuck on it I think our systems are still sufficient

You can make some of this case about intel now regarding value. I bought the 13900kf for 500 when 7950 was 750 and i used old ram. It has issues though right with the heat. Not sure there really is a free lunch. The biggest thing for me back when amd was the underdog was the cores they added. With intel we were stuck at 4. That was a big deal. Intel kind of has done that now, practically they are evenly matched that's good for competition; You have one wanting market share the other wants to keep it. Will amd raise prices probably yes. But take note it's very competitive. I don't think personally it will last. They are over estimating the issue with intel in that case. You may lose 5% with intel maybe, and energy just doesn't matter that much it does matter it's just not the only thing to consider. Some but not that much. Not 100 dollars maybe 40 dollars. Intel is very competitive, and the differences between the cpus it's nothing like with amd and nvidia. Nvidia really can do things amd cannot. I'm not saying amd is bad but they are different products. You may not all want those things and that's ok, but that is how this competition factors into this. Just look at the prices to explain it. It's usually very logical. I guess that's what you are saying though. I'm personally happy with my intel cpu even now just because of the price. I do a productivity/gaming build. If the prices were identical i'd have gone with amd because of the energy and some of the potential software issues with big little (being newer). It's not worth much though. Not when the performance is basically the same for most use cases.

My plan for the moment is to upgrade my graphics card with next release of upper-mid tier cards, then upgrade cpu/motherboard with release of cpus in 2 years. My 5800x3d is plenty good for what I'm doing now, and I want to move to 4k & 1440p gaming. Currently doing 1080p on a 5700xt. I've been buying the top tier games on my ps5 because my graphics card struggles with the newer stuff. Heck, I spend most of my time playing Civ 6 on 1080p max settings, and my gpu is pegged. I checked GPU memory usage, and it's wanting 9.8 GB of memory on an 8GB graphics card. I tried playing Starfield on my pc, but it was so choppy, I gave up. Sure, I could have turned everything from med to low or dropped down a resolution, but a person has to have some standards. :)

Im still on 4770k and thinking on maybe upgrading on a cheap used 3800x,ram,mobo combo for 200e or just saving for a 7600 system. Im just now playing alan wake 2 and its supricingly smooth with 4770k 4.5ghz even with pathtracing medium. Will see I do want to play cyberpunk maybe it will kill the i7.

Conversion cables - DP to VGA, DVI....

Back when AM4 was newer I decided to go with the 9700KF on Z390 not because it was that much better, it wasn't a crazy amount more and I felt I could trust it to be reliable; I didn't see Ryzen becoming what it has. Now I kick myself because I'd have upgraded to a 5800X3D... However, there was no way of knowing it'd be as successful as it was. The longevity of AM4 is amazing and woulda worked great for me. Especially with X3D being amazing in Star Citizen. I dont really care tho cause there's no changing the past. I will however be upgrading sometime around black friday and I hope I can, make a better choice, get a nice and fresh AM5 X770(if it's called that) that has USB/Thunderbolt 4 out the wazoo, definite PCIE 5 support, and slap a 7800X3D on a black friday sale in, cause Zen5 should be out. Thats my hope at least. Then I'll upgrade my 6900XT in like five more years or something 😅. Get a 6090 or something lol

Direct Storage is overhyped on account on SSD speeds being ridiculously overhyped for what normal use is concerned. As we saw with RTX IO Portal, the tech is awesome for SATA SSDs. Ironically, Direct Storage hypers would buy their fast SSD, get a heat sink, for the games loadings, then wait for Direct Storage to do its magic (it doesn't) and of course all this while having run out of storage space because they should've gotten a larger mid performance SSD, and buy the fast one later on if need be.

Hi guys, Which is the better motherboard for 7800X3D...? ASUS ROG STRIX B650E-F or MSI X670E Gaming Plus WIFI Thanks!

Any speculation on how low Zen 4 may go before/when Zen 5 comes out? A 7900X3D at $350 US is awfully tempting right now. Also, would you go 7800X3D and 64gb ram or 7900X3D and 32gb? For mixed use/4k gaming.

The answer as to why some boards still have VGA and PS2 ports is simple: datacenter KVMs. Lots of datacenters use disposable commodity mobos and CPUs in open air racks using PXE boot for compute rather than spending 20-30x the price for purpose built systems with the same compute power but more enterprise features. Those datacenters tend to use old legacy KVM systems for management, and almost all of those systems use VGA and PS/2. They run these mobos until something burns out, then a guy comes in, unplugs the power, network, PS/2 and VGA ports, slots in a new one, KVMs into it to get it configured, and tosses the old HW into a pile for disposal. As Tim said, these companies are probably ordering mobos in lots of 1000+ a year, and the manufacturers are willing to make a special product that fits this use case because they sell 100x more product to this market share than all of the gaming market combined.

Looking for outro music cannot find it on youtube

why no one make horizontal case more ?

In recent testing the 7900xtx was the 15th fastest GPU for path tracing.

Is an all AMD system better for running Linux normally, and even optimally?

Best overclocking motherboard have 1 or 2 PS\2 port. Also if customer have a good old working keyboard like "Microsoft Multimedia Keyboard 1.0 a" or 'Microsoft Ergonomic-5000" why i need buy new (and costly - good keyboards always cost a lot) keyboard?

I got xmp on, curve optimizer -30 on all cores, pbo on, and +10% extra performance from my GPU with 100% stability.. Only thing which took some effort was the gpu tuning, but it's not rocket science. All depends on the hardware you got whether it's worth it, but for a lot of people it is.

Got a 5800x3d used for $150 and it runs perfectly. He said it was only a few days old which is strange.

I bought a 5000 series last month. I returned it and deiced AM5 is the way to go

I am glad these new chips and motherboards exist for the people who need them . Engineers, Graphics Artist and the Medical system. For the layman though that use just video streaming and general use. I would not recommend an upgrade. We spend too much money on the newest and greatest stuff. My system is an AMD 3 motherboard, with a FX 6100 chip. Nvidia 1030 Card Over 10 years old. Never had a problem . The secret is to re thermal paste the cooler and every 6 months clean the case and fans.. Just my take on the state of computing

Will ultra settings significantly increase graphics quality, compared to high settings?

AMD has a fiduciary responsibility towards their shareholders to increase revenue. Like you guys said, bulldozer was awful, they pretty much lost their entire marketshare and had to provide great bang for the buck as they introduced Ryzen.

One thing I really wish to see more is 8000hz compatibility when it comes to CPUs. I have only seen a few people claim intel handles it better than AMD so if possible I would like to see a test where you spin hard with 8k hz in cs2 or valorant and check the results. Probably too much effort but I still wanted to ask

There are active DP to VGA dongles, powered straight from the DP port. They are under $10. There's no reason to feature VGA output ports anywhere.

old vga and ps 2 ports are sometimes used in production/factory environments...and, alternatively, it's also possible they have contracts that are meant to be upheld until a specified date...financial conspiracy.

Would it be a viable option to go from a 5600 to an x3d AM4 CPU, like the 5800x3d or 5700x3d, or would it be better to just go AM5?

31:51 I've been getting insulted for free this whole time

last cpu i overclocked was a core duo e8400 lol

I Undervolt, and if possible overclock while undervolted, but undervolt>overclock

Heres my case: I have two PCs 1- R7 1700x + B350 + 32gb 3200 + RX550 I use it in my homestudio, to study music and record my own stuff. Bought shortly after the release of 1700x. It is still running good things like Reaper and instrument plug-ins. Second PC is R7 3700x +X570 + 32gb 3600 CL14 + 1080ti. Used for gaming and basic office/editing stuff. Second PC was upgraded today with 5900X! It will be my studio PC. I'll sell 1700x PC and 3700x processor. I'll build a new AM5 7800x3d initially with 1080ti and asap RTX 5000 series. Man...years of AM4 using! Excellent!!! Thanks AMD!
