If it isn't there are still plenty upgrade options on this gen.
, plus the question around DDR5AMD would have to take insane risk to bring AM5 next year, because JEDEC's DDR5 specifying process is proceeding at speed of Intel's 10nm manufacturing node.
Which both were supposed to be ready before 2017.
Even if JEDEC managed to pull out their fingers out of their collective butt and finish the spec it would be months before volume production could be set up to start production for sale.
And then more time from that point for getting DDR5s into shops in any usefull volume for even minor product release.

It most likely will be, its the 5000 series (and onwards) that will end up on AM5

I ended up grabbing a 3600x as it was a good deal. Really happy with it so far.
Havnt had a amd cpu since a socket 754? 3700 15 years ago.

Good choice. As humbug said, the right oneYep

doing the same choice from a i5 6600k, im guessing the 3600 will totally destroy my i5 for gaming?
got a radeon 5700 pulse recently and the i5 is showing signs on some games of starting to be a bottlekneck as i only game at 1080p.
