Got it from local MD Computers store. 53k.Awesome!
How did you manage to get your hands on the rare 5900x, at what price ?

I don't think it will happen anytime soon. AMD is just selling out whatever they produce, more often than not over MRP. There is just no incentive for them to produce any lower binned products that will demand lesser money.Guys, any idea when the low end Ryzen 5000 series processors will launch like 5600 non x & the quad core parts? There has been no news lately around this & I am wondering if AMD would even bother releasing these parts any time soon.
Agreed, Although I have recently seen a spike in processors stocks & if you see 5600x & 5800x are now easily available at MSRP. This suggests that the processor situation is definitely starting to normalize. Intel 11th gen has also launched & products like 11600k have started undercutting 5600x pricing while performing pretty close in gaming. All this makes me wonder if AMD will soon realize they are missing out on the sub $300 market & launch some alternative products.I don't think it will happen anytime soon.

buy 3600 now and use it for next 2 yrs then upgrade to next gen AM5/DDR5Guys, any idea when the low end Ryzen 5000 series processors will launch like 5600 non x & the quad core parts?

I am rocking a good old Ryzen 5 1600 right now & want to upgrade to something faster that can keep up with my 3060Ti. I am wondering if waiting would be better considering the huge performance delta between 5000 & 3000 series or if going with something like a Ryzen 3600 would be a better idea, this way I can reuse my old motherboard as well? I play at 1080p so I am actually facing some bottleneck due to the 1600.

I just don't want to be in a situation where I end up buying a 3600 & a couple of months down the line we see a 5000 series quad core part outperforming a 3600 in gaming which is very likely to happen.
Ask yourself a question, Are you willing to upgrade next year when new gen processors launch? keeping in mind those investments on motherboards will serve you for a long time. If yes then don't spend too much on a new item like 5000 series else but 5600x and use it for 3yrs because when new lineup will show up you will feel the difference in performanceThis is what I fear will happen pretty soon & this makes me a bit hesitant to purchase a 3600. Anyways, I'll end up saving money on motherboard so I guess it is still better for me to stick with a 3600.
At 1080p, with nV card and a "slow" processor like the 1600, there are bound to be bottleneck issues including the driver overhead recently explored by Hardware Unboxed.Guys, any idea when the low end Ryzen 5000 series processors will launch like 5600 non x & the quad core parts?

11600k is very lucrative proposition if you are gaming, i particularly don't know intels socket/chipset `commitment other wise 11600k is very good proposition ,5600x actually trumps it overall.Agreed, Although I have recently seen a spike in processors stocks & if you see 5600x & 5800x are now easily available at MSRP.

Lets see how it goes, I just don't want to be in a situation where I end up buying a 3600 & a couple of months down the line we see a 5000 series quad core part outperforming a 3600 in gaming which is very likely to happen.
Either you splurge cash to get the best you can this year that lasts for 3 years and not think of new chips coming in next two years or stick to your current system for another year and a half, get DDR5 and am5/lga1700 based system.This is what I fear will happen pretty soon & this makes me a bit hesitant to purchase a 3600.

+1 to QHD, or better yet, UWQHD, unless you're on competitive games that crop badly in UW.I think upgrading to a qhd monitor first makes a lot of sense as suggested by @burntwingzZz, that will mostly take care of the CPU bottleneck & has been on my head for quite a while now.
Fortunately I have that sorted, I was one of the few lucky one's who got the FE 3060Ti in the Feb sale.The problem is the graphics cards...
I think 41k is a bit too much for me & I also don't have space for an ultra wide on my table. I am a casual gamer so wouldn't splurge on a high price monitor, I was thinking of going with something like an Acer Nitro XV272U. Its cheap right now on Amazon & reviews are also decent.+1 to QHD, or better yet, UWQHD, unless you're on competitive games that crop badly in UW.
While not an ideal monitor, there's a Lenovo 34 UW available for as low as 41k sometimes... It is VA/60Hz but the 3000:1 contrast ratio will be good for movies and games, especially immersive ones like RDR2 etc..
And the 3060Ti can drive it quite well..
Yeah, now the retailers are no longer selling GPU only (untill you know them really well ). GPU Market looks to be like this for a long time now.Fortunately I have that sorted, I was one of the few lucky one's who got the FE 3060Ti in the Feb sale.
