Unlike the 10900K, the 5800X is far from being the top of the line in AMD's product stack. It's also probably $100 cheaper.i was expecting the 5800X to be doing a lot better than that based on the reactions here lol.
it's good yeah but it's only just better than the 10900K. not really blowing it out the water. plus it's only at 1080p...not many people are buying these kind of CPUs for 1080p. at 1440/2160p there will be little difference.
If the Zen 2 CPUs are any indication, 5900 and 5950 SKUs should boost higher while having more cores.
Yes. Though I believe Zen 4 is gonna require DDR5, so it won't be cheap going in on the first gen of that.The 5xxx series is the last generation before the socket change, yes? So if I would like to maybe keep my motherboard across CPU upgrades I should wait for the next release?
