Ryzen 7 5800X3D pro-order status

[maltrabob]

Hi, sorry if this isn't the right thread and if this was asked before, I used search bar to make sure it hadn't. I have a Ryzen 7 5800X3D on pre-order, does anybody (@Gibbo) know how long it usually takes for the order to be delivered? I also have a pair of 8pack's RAMs on pre-order. Thanks for the info.

I was thinking about it too, but decided to go with the ones on the pre-order. Cheers for your advice though.

Is 5800x3d able to “feed” your 4090?

I understand your logic behind what you are saying. I could save money for a bit of performance loss, and put it towards a GPU upgrade for example. My original plan was to upgrade to 9800X3D once released, but after underwhelming reviews of the new generation for the desktop PC, I changed my mind. Twice actually. I also wanted to go with 7800X3D on AM5 platform, and that wouldn’t be much more expensive than my choice of staying on AM4 with 5800X3D. But I opted for the AM4 platform and my reasoning is as follows - I currently have a Ryzen 9 5900X, so I don’t want the CPU swap become a downgrade. Hence the most expensive AM4 X3D processor and a DDR4 kit with tight timings. I’m planning to squeeze every possible performance reserve out of it as I am planning to stay on the platform until Zen 6 architecture arrives. I only play games and I had my 5900X running as a six-core with one CCD disabled for better fps count in games, while also have the system energy efficient and cool.

I've just had confirmation from customer services that it is now EOL and OC will not be expecting any further stock.

OC already took money from my account about two weeks ago, so I am expecting that they will have some stock available. It is also available on Am***n.

As mentioned by another member above, there won't be any more 5800X3Ds available. I cancelled on Wednesday anyway, and ordered a 7800X3D, which means I am upgrading the whole platform.
