Cpu change

[Odesses]

I'm currently running a ryzen 5 5600gt and am wondering if it would be worth changing to a ryzen 7 5800x i use my computer for gaming and general use

What games do you play?

[Odesses]

Cyberpunk, first descendent, cod etc.

honestly, it's not much for general use; it would not be noticeable at all. For gaming, it depends on the game/res/etc. but back again gaming relies heavily on graphic cards.

I say keep saving until you can either get an X3D CPU or a complete platform upgrade.

 

Single-threaded performance is almost the same between the two of them.

 

You'll gain an additional two cores and four threads (assuming your games will take advantage of those), a bit more cache, and go from PCIe Gen3 to Gen4. That's about all the differences that matter.
