Did you manage to get a PlayStation 5 and/or Xbox Series X yet?

Ryzen 5950X @5ghz, 64GB DDR4 3600mhz. More CPU power than an Xbox Series X and Playstation 5 and probably Switch combined. Hoorah.
Didn't go HEDT for the first time in over a decade... But still faster than most Intel rigs.

This is just a stop gap PC to tie me over until next year when DDR5 brings all the boys to the yard.

Also got a desire to upgrade my Galaxy Note 20 Ultra 5G. Maybe a fold? But the camera sensors leave much to be desired...

Yeah, my PC, even with the aging X299 platform, blows both consoles into oblivion. I would have moved on to another platform, but the PCIe 5 + DDR5 combo is coming! I can hold off with what I have, which is the 10980XE @4.8GHz, 128GB DDR4 @3600MHz, and a TITAN RTX. The plan is to maybe grab 2 Samsung 980 Pros (2TB) [currently using two 970 EVO Plus drives], NVIDIA's next big boy (4090), and Intel's next Extreme HEDT (I'd be fine with a move to 22 cores given I'm currently rockin' 18 and really don't expect to ever push them beyond their capabilities).

Your rig is still pretty potent all things considered.
Although the 5950X will easily out-bench the 10980XE, even with 2 less cores.. AMD is just ripping it up at the moment, which is what sold me, there is also the potential for a Ryzen refresh this year with a "3D cache".
We are at that point where high-end CPU's are just ridiculous from an IPC and Core count perspective, in the real world, you wouldn't be able to tell our CPU's apart with general usage.

Ryzen 6950X+128GB DDR5+Radeon 7900XT next year sounds appetizing.

Keeping a watchful eye on Intel though, I may just switch back if their next gen CPU's pan out.
