ah ffs, literally just got the 5700x

5700x gets you most of the perf of the 5800x at a much more reasonable TDP and operating temp. X3D benefits aside, you have one of the most efficient 8 core desktop CPUs currently on the market.

5800X runs hot as fuck because it can't even hit the full 142W stock TDP on non-goat cooling.

I run it with effective 85W thermal / power limits due to the cooler I have. I'm probably losing a few % in perf but it's a LOT more efficient and runs cooler.
