hmm, ah yup literally the only difference is the £200 more for the chip - probably another £400 on top of that to deal with the AM5 side of things

so, still worth it to buy AM4 gear? it's on its last legs, surely

5800X3D and 64 GB RAM AM4 build can last for 5 years at least

well a 5950x will give around the same hashrate as a 7950x (give or take a couple kh/s) and heck I still an athlon powered server running without issues - all depends on your needs I guess

my ryzen laptop is from 2021, has 64GB RAM. I prob won't replace it this year but maybe next year.

but 7950X is wayyyyyy better at compiling code

hyc: what’s your next laptop?

my 2014 desktop isn't half bad today
