Exactly 5800x3d is the best cpu ive owned and the longest only changed graphic card since ive had it.

Same, I can't imagine the CPU is going to be a limiting factor for another 5 years at least
Just watched this. Makes me feel good about not upgrading my CPU.
5800X3D is just and AM4 in general has been awesome, never thought when I bought my Crosshair vi 8 years ago I would still be using it in 2025 started with a 1700X then a 3700X now a 5800X3D and planning on keeping this CPU for a couple more years at least

The 2nd hand prices on the 5800X3D are insane, people are regularly paying on eBay £50/£60 more for a 2nd hand 5800X3D with no warranty then what a brand new retail 5700X3D costs.
Sorry if this has been mentioned before...but im really happy with my 5800x3d still and although was tempted for a bit to upgrade to the 9800x3d, im not going to..instead, ive decided to wait to see what amd brings next.
Will there new cpus in a years time or whenever they are being released be on a new socket?
Thanks

Supposed to be at least one more new generation on the current AM5 socket afaik, although as with AM4 it's likely there will still be newer variants even once a new socket is released.
Think that will be the last chip for AM5, doesn't feel great to me to get on the platform at the end , I rather jump on early on when new platform is released

This is where I am but battlefield 6 is making me want to upgrade (feel like it may be holding me back with a 4090 at 4k)
If you only use it for gaming then it's an upgrade IMO. I did the same and never looked back.Decided in the end that a final upgrade of my AM4 system would be a good idea so have bought a 5800x3d; hopefully I will not regret the upgrade (from 5900x).
Jumping on now with a 9800x3d and buying the new x3d when it goes on sale 9 months after launch or so isn’t a bad shout. Can avoid the silly new ram and motherboard prices, and the teething issues of a new generation while not missing out on too much performance.
Good watch and testament to the AM4 longevity! It's certainly prevented me from jumping to AM5..
