I have a 5600x, a x570 gigabyte elite wifi and Evga bronze 850w 

 

The mobo has the top slot wrecked it only works on the bottom slot, my primary reason to upgrade 

 

 

I could just replace the mobo and upgrade to the 5800x3d but by then it's already like 500 bucks

Check the combo deals too.

A good B550 board might cost you $150 and an 5700X3D about $200.

Yeah, it comes to about $400, and you get a 7600X to 7700X level of performance - but you get to keep your RAM, OS, installs, ...

Hello, I'll be upgrading the core of my PC (ram, cpu, mobo) to AM5.
I've done a bit of research and it seems for the most part the x670 mobo is not really worth it at the high prices, however Newegg has a combo deal going on right now, These are the pieces I have mostly landed on, these are in USD location and prices:


* 7800x3d for $340 (it's -30 due to combo)

* Gigabyte x670 Gaming X AX V2 at $180 (-30 due to combo)

* Team T-force delta 3200 32 GB 6000 CL30 at $99 (-10 due to combo)


Total $663


My current pieces that I already own are:

*  Nvidia Asus strix rtx 3080 12gb
* Seasonic focus 850w plat


What do you guys think, worth it?

 

My reason for upgrading is that my current mobo has a dead Gpu slot and broken RGB pins so I thought instead of buying a new mobo I might as well platform upgrade now

Going from Ryzen 5000 or Intel 12th gen or later? No. Going from anything before that? Yes.

Are you near a Microcenter? Newegg's bundles aren't really that much of a "bundle deal"

I'm not actually trying to be as grumpy as it seems.

I will find your mentions of Ikea or Gnome and I will /s post.

What platform do you have now, which CPU, MBO and RAM?

+1 I'd go with what 191x7 said.
