Verdict — Ryzen 7 5800X3D
The most impactful CPU upgrade ever released. If you have an AM4 board and Zen 3 support, this is often better ROI than a whole new platform.
Verdict — Ryzen 5 5600
Aging platform (AM4 is EOL for new sockets) but this specific chip is still fantastic value. Pair with a used B550 board and 16 GB DDR4 for a shockingly capable budget gamer.
