Did you order multiple? :cry:

. I want one but due to extra expenses this month I have to hold off, although it will be a nice upgrade over my 3900X. However, maybe I'll wait until Zen 4 before ordering anything, I'm not sure yet.

I ordered one from here and elsewhere just in case they were oversold and didn't end up getting one. It's happened before.

Luckily I ordered from OcuK within 1 minute of going live so it was not needed in hindsight.

Sometimes 2 CPUs are required for crossfire.

Delid it and try to manually stack them, pretty sure some gorilla glue and a soldering iron will do the trick.

Am I mad for considering "upgrading" my 5900x to the 5800x3D for gaming?

I'm looking forward to your thoughts to see how it compares to your 5950x.

What resolution do you game at? I've seen gains even at 4k with the 5800X3D on benchmarks that I've watched on Youtube.

The lows are really good too which not many people talk about, it seems most are focus on average or highs.

No not at all.

The 5800X3D is the best Ryzen CPu for gaming.

Is it necessary? No. Is it fun? Possibly

kevman · 20 Apr 2022 at 22:09

Guess im not the only one. Is it going to be a limited production run?

ChocAndGray · 20 Apr 2022 at 22:20

I don't think it's been announced as limited run.

But I do wonder how hard it is for them to manufacturer? Could there be issues in producing them?

There used to be hypes that production will be very difficult.

Tetras · 20 Apr 2022 at 23:11

I don't remember AMD saying it is a limited run either, but it does look like poor availability might be a thing, at least until there are some new shinies.

Same tbh. Only reason I'm not buying one of these is because they locked it down.

Orcvader · 20 Apr 2022 at 23:16

Just waiting for payday until I grab one. No rush, I don't even think my board supports it yet (1.2.0.6c BIOS for Tomahawk is still "beta").
