I am on 5600x so it will be interesting to see the performance jump of 9600x specially when I'll have to spend on new motherboard and RAM kit
 
I will stick to AM4 still as AMD still manufacturing those and with new launch of 5900xt....when that ends will change platform after that which i guess is after 2-3 more years atleast.

AMD's commitment to such an old platform is one of the best things about current CPU market. I hope they do the same with AM5 as well.
Now if only Intel followed suit.

Both companies have there own strategies and it seems they will carry on with them, AMD will support there platform and Intel will do opposite.
