1k $, meanwhile in Belgium, paid mine 1700€ (almost 1900$usd) - As rock 7900 xtx aqua - upon release that is. Now i believe it's still around 1400~ish € - close to 1550$.

Was it worth it ? .. definetly considering i'm running the 45"LG monitor (45gr95qe-b) at 240hz oled panel.

Only the 7000x cpu generation doesn't feel like a worth upgrade path (from my 5950x), probably on the 9000x

I had a 5800X, went to AM5 on a 7950X3D, then I last week put a 5950X in the old board for some compute and can manual OC via Ryzen Master to 4.3GHz and the 7950 only hits 4.6GHz at stock with like 10% more performance, so it's mostly clocks and cache stuff.

5950X is a fuckin beast.

Yeah, i agree. i've got mine -30 curve, boost at 5.1ghz on 3 cores at the same time & the rest ccd 0 at 4.9 & the ccd1 at 4.5~4.6ghz all cores.. guess i got a lucky gold chip lol

Zen4 is just faster Zen3 mostly, so fast Zen3 leaves little room for gain, your shit is zooming.
