Ryzen 7 5800x VS Ryzen 9 5900x || Paired with RTX 3090

Go to solution Solved by Mister Woof,

5900x isn't really going to improve your gaming performance much if at all, as its going to be 2 CCDs vs the 5800x's single.

 

Personally I wouldn't bother. Given how inexpensive the 5800X is right now, I think around $234, you won't be able to recover much from selling that to replace with the 5900x anyway.

 

You could go for a 5800X3D as mentioned above, but they're more expensive now and I wouldn't bother with that either at these prices. Better to wait for 7800X3D early next year.

Hello guys, I have 2 questions that are burning a hole in my pocket.

I currently have a really nice PC build that includes all these parts:

MOBO: ASUS ROG Strix B550-F Gaming (Wi-Fi)
MEM: 32GB DDR4 @3600 Mhz

CPU: Ryzen 7 5800x
GPU: MSI Ventus 3x RTX 3090 OC Edition

DRIVE: Samsung 970 Evo 1TB NVME x2
DISPLAY: ASUS 1920x1080 144 Hz Monitor + ASUS 2560x1440 165 Hz Monitor
PSU: Corsair RM1000x 1000W Modular
COOLING: Noctua NH-U12S 55 CFM

While I am very happy with this computer and what it can do, ive come into the oppertunity to get a Ryzen 9 5900x at a very great price. Ive heard from a friend and online search that my current CPU (R7 5800x) bottlenecks my 3090 a bit in situations that use the CPU more than the GPU. Im curious as to if this is true or not and would like some more opinions on that matter. One game I would love to see a increase in performance in is Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 as I absolutely love the beauty that game gives at maxed out graphics options. Currently I get around 30-40 FPS in that game with my current configuration (is that normal?); would the R9 5900x even give any performance increases? Let me know your thoughts and knowledge before I do another impulse buy! : )

I went from a 5800 to 5900 (thankfully for free) and there was no noticeable difference except that the 5900 ran a bit cooler.
