Hey, I've just spent a little time searching for the answer and I can't find any threads, is it going to be worth upgrading from a 3600 to a 5600x or 5800x? Will the 5600x be a single CCX like the 3300x? I have managed to find from my search that the 5800x will be a single CCX.

Assuming for gaming purposes? What graphics card have you got and are you intending on upgrading it?

Yeah gaming and lots of code compiling, that's about it :)

Probably not unless you already have a RTX 2080ti/30 series GPU and play at 1440P or lower.

If you don't already have one of the above GPUs then putting the money towards a 30 series or big navi card will give you the most power for gaming unless of course you have the cash laying around for both.

I will be looking towards the 6800 or the 6800xt but I'll probably wait for those reviews before picking one. Currently, I have a PowerColor 5700xt twin fan and my monitor is 1440p 165Hz.

That's just with pbo enabled I might try to push it close to the 5ghz mark later today.
