2700X to 5800X3D on X570 Gigabyte Gaming X
9 minutes ago, Alexsaurus Reks said:I’m looking to upgrade from my 2700X to a 5800X3D. I’m slightly concerned about my mobo’s VRMs since it was a budget board to begin with. I’ll try to link a picture of it as well as link to the board on PC Part Picker. Thanks guys!

The 5800X3D doesn't use a lot more than a 2700X, that board is more than fine for handling it. Update the bios to the latest and put the 5800X3D in.
If you're gaming on 1440p or 4K but you don't plan on going with a 7900XT, RTX 4080, 7900XTX, RTX 4090, you can save yourself some money and get a 5700X.
Would still be a huge upgrade over a 2700X and it's just 60% of the price of a 5800X3D.
But if you game on 1080p (and won't change that soon) while having a card stronger thana Radeon 6600XT or GeForce RTX 3060, you pretty much have to go with the 5800X3D cause a 5700X/5800X would bottleneck a mid-range gup on 1080p.
