Looks like it's still a safe bet for me to upgrade to that 5800X3D at some point. |
A fun fact is the 5800X3D is actually way to power hungry out of the box and you can put a crazy undervolt on it along the lines of 30-40% less power usage for around a 5% performance loss and it becomes super efficient you can even set it to 5600X power draw and retain 90% of the 5800X3D's performance. It's also one of the simplest to do from my experience and everything I read you can just put -30 on every core and it's stable and loose a couple of % for a decent power usage and temp drop.
In fact Undervoltig is the 2nd thing I do after adding something new to my PC because these days everything has way to much power thrown at them to the extent it's causing the parts a performance loss long gone are the days of overclocking.
