I'll add that this will likely only make a significant difference if your GPU is relatively powerful. If you're still rocking an RX 480 or similar, the GPU is going to be your bottleneck in most games and upgrading the CPU won't make as big a difference. I went from a 1700X to a 5900X with an RX 580, and I only noticed a difference in one game until I upgraded the GPU.
- tracker1 3y agoFair enough... I tend to do GPU upgrade mine often than system, wasn't thinking about it. That said. Still a big difference for a lot of use cases.
- baobun 3y ago5700G might be a great upgrade from a 2700X. Better performance at lower TDP and the integrated graphics are impressive. Even if you do end up with a discrete GPU, being able to do passthrough with a secondary can be quite useful.
- ColonelPhantom 3y agoWhy would you get a 5700G from a 2700X? When you have a 2700X you already have a dedicated GPU, which is probably a lot better than the integrated Vega 8. Yes, even if it's an older card like an RX 580. I'm pretty sure even something pitiful like an RX 550 will be at least as good. As such, you're better off getting e.g. a 5700X or even some X3D chip, which are much faster. The 5000G processors are slower than their 5000X or 5000 counterparts, since they have less cache.
