      As incredible as that CPU is (and it IS incredible, there's no doubt), AMD really outdid themselves with the 5800X3D (which is what I have) and while it is nowhere near the level of the 9800X3D, I see no reason to change what I'm already using. It's just that good. I'm expecting that I won't need to upgrade until AM6 and you might just manage to make it to AM7.
      This is especially gratifying for me because I "suffered" through owning a Phenom II X4 940 and an FX-8350 (with Radeons going from the HD 4870 1GB to the R9 Fury). The reason I say "suffered" wasn't because of the CPUs or GPUs themselves (in hindsight, I would have made the same choices again), but because of all the Intel/nVidia fanboys who crowed about their super-high frame rates and made belittling remarks towards my PC because there was no green or blue in it. What's really ironic is that this happened back when pretty much ALL monitors at the time were 60Hz.
      I chose the Phenom II X4 940 over the Q9400 because the platform cost was about half even though the performance was comparable. I chose the FX-8350 because I got it brand-new for $170CAD with a 990FX mobo and 16GB of DDR3-1333 costing me only $200CAD. That's $370 but an i7 build at the time would have cost me close to $700. I knew that the 8 ALUs of the FX-8350 wouldn't be hyper fast in gaming but would be fast enough and the CPU wouldn't slow down over time as games and other programs became more threaded. It lasted me for five years and is the best value CPU that I've ever owned except for maybe my current R7-5800X3D (which I got on sale for $100CAD off).
      Because of people like me who had the foresight and knowledge to choose AMD (and ATi) during those times, AMD survived to bring us Ryzen (which of course led to X3D).

    The F SKUs seem like a useful idea conceptually until you get to pricing, and the value just never seem to be there. 16:10 seemed to be the worst, where you have to pay $1 more to get no iGPU, but even most of the time it feels like F SKUs are never discounted enough from non-F to justify losing the iGPU.

    I really don't know a ton about PC stuff so please bear with me. In 2017 my cousin helped me build a PC using my graduation money. Right now I was trying to upgrade it so I could play more modern games. I went from a 1060 to a zotac 4060 solo. I got the solo because my case is very small and it fits perfectly. The new graphics card is awesome and works great. I plan on upgrading my ram to 32 gb soon as well. Anyway, I got an intel i7-9700 to replace the i5-7600k. My mother board is an ASRock Z270M-ITX/ac, and because it has the same socket as my old CPU, I assumed it would work. But because I'm stupid, I didn't realize my board didn't support much further processors. So anyway all that to say, I was wondering if there are any processors I'm not aware of that would work well? I would really like to play games like black myth Wukong, and eventually ff7 rebirth whenever it comes to PC. Is my current one too slow to do much of anything?

      Microcenter has some good bundles for Black Friday right now. Decide if you game or if you will be doing lots of video production to decide which CPU to buy. Not sure if Paul mentions it, but the 13 and 14 gen intel parts had significant issues, with many CPU being RMA’d. Intel claims that the issues have been resolved, but it is hard to trust those generations. And do not buy a used one.
      AMD is hard to beat in gaming with their X3D CPU, even the 5700 x3d is a good performer for gaming. That is the older platform, but it is inexpensive and often outperforms 12900k / 13900k .

    In consideration of the entire budget concern, it makes sense to purchase a CPU WITH the graphics. At least you have fair graphics until you can unload another $500+ for a graphics card. Makes a lot of sense for those builders who want a system up and running without spending a good half as much additionally for just the graphics. Those $30 extra for iGraphics is worth it in my opinion.

    Currently running at 3700x coupled with a 7800XT GPU. I am definitely looking to upgrade to AM5 and overhaul my system. Best options for a mid-range CPU, mostly for gaming, with that GPU specifically? I don't play super demanding titles, but there's definitely a noticeable bottleneck with the older CPU at this point. Looking to spend $250-350. I know at least a few were mentioned in this video, but looking for input based on the GPU I have.

    I sold my 5600 "with the unused Wraith Stealth cooler and original packaging" on ebay & simultaneously purchased the 5700X on Amazon. So I'm only out the difference since I was already running a Vetroo V5 aftermarket cooler with the 5600. And I'm satisfied with the upgrade as there's a noticeable increase in editing performance with the 5700X, which is my primary concern.

    In a comment to a similar video on another channel someone mentioned that where he lived he could buy a Ryzen 5 7500F slightly cheaper than a Ryzen R5 7600. Now this is interesting as the differences between these processors are that the 7600F doesn't have a integrated GPU and 100 MHz lower base clock and Max Boost clock at 3.7GHz and 5GHz respectively compared to 3.8GHz and 5.1GHz for the 7600. Everything else is the same. The performance difference between the 7500F and the 7600 is so small you probably can't feel it without running benchmarks, and they can be made up for by a very slight overclock which is just about certain it wont case any instability or problems. Now I don't know if it comes with a heatsink or how common they are in retail. I also saw a commenter say that where he shopped the 7500F was more expensive than the 7600, so that's also a possibility. And keep in mind that without a integrated GPU you absolutely need some kind of graphics card to get any kind of picture.

      Yes, especially if you play 1440p or higher, the GPU will be the bottleneck. Just noticed, however, that you are talking about music production. DAWs and music production still benefit more for single core performance over multi core (though cores can help too, higher single core performance is more important), so actually the "gaming CPUs" might be better to look at for music production specifically. The CPU is also far more important to music production than regular use, gaming use, editing use, etc. So in music production, CPU and often RAM are the things to invest in.
