AMD is fleshing out the $100 to $250 market with this announcement. Top end $300+ chips (like 7800x3d) are safe. --------- I'm seriously considering the $250

I'm seriously considering the $250 5700x3d for my nieces, or maybe something cheaper. They don't need the latest-and-greatest PC. But having something "pretty good" (and the 5700x3d will be pretty good) is surely going to be appreciated.
- PartiallyTyped 3y agoIt's a bit funny how the 5800x3d was creeping in the 7xxx series during launch.
- snvzz 3y agoThat is my CPU. A great purchase in hindsight. Still great against Zen4, just not against an x3d Zen4.
- dragontamer 3y agoI really want AVX512 on my AMD system (aka: 7xxx series) for maximum irony. So my upgrade will probably be that 7xxx series, probably 7800x3d. This was a feature I thought would appear on mainstream Intel systems first for the longest time. But no, Intel decided to leave it on higher-end Xeons only...
- snvzz 3y agoI can't use my x3d anymore (my family does now), as I moved and left it behind. But I plan on zen5 x3d (at a minimum), or Zen6 if I can hold for that long. Zen+ laptop and some old board with 4790k cover the gap. I'll probably get a RX 7600XT for that haswell.
