I currently have a 7600K but it only has 4 Cores/Threads which is bootlenecking many games and is obviously unsuitable for running virtual systems. I can currently get a decent deal on 5600X (260.-) , 5800X (390.-) or 5900X (516.-) + motherboard (150.-). My plan would be to keep this upgrade for the next 3-5 Years until I'm ready for a next big upgrade as there obviously can't be a small one with the changing sockets and DDR5. What are your thoughts on upgrading now and which CPU do you think is best?
