£400 to buy a new CPU

[Envy78]

Hi, I currently have a ryzen 7 1800x and want an upgrade to get better FPS on rust. I also have an RX 580 8GB and 16GB of 3200mghz ram. If you have any recommendations for a new CPU for me or any new parts for me it would be appreciated. Thanks.

What motherboard do you have?

MSI B450 gaming carbon pro OC

5600x to go with your b450 Tomahawk.

I was thinking more of an upgrade to something like a 3900x, I will eventually get a new GPU anyway so I won’t get as much of a bottleneck

5800x and cooler

I was thinking that but I’ve seen that the 5800x has bad reviews no?

Is your pc for gaming or video editing, etc ?

Just for gaming on rust

5800x seems to be the cpu of choice and tons of threads on here about them

Ok, I think I’ll probably get that thenThanks for the advice, helps a lot
