Rocking my 5800x from 2022, 32gb ram.

I have my 5800X in my AM4 motherboard from 2017. My current system as been beyond any doubts the best bang for my bucks of any computer I have built.

Same, 5800X in my X470 AORUS mobo and it's been fantastic, no desire to upgrade (already had the 64gb ram, so the CPU swap was simple, I think I got $50 from my old 2700 cpu)

5900X here with mobo from 2019. Will upgrade my GPU or get a mac if I'm able to setup my wacom pen the way I want. Either way I will keep the current machine

Hell yeah, buddy.

    $ cat /proc/cpuinfo
    ...
    model name      : AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 8-Core Processor

    $ free -m
    ...
                   total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available
    Mem:           32006        6878        1088         363       24856       25127

3800x here, so disappointing little progress since then

Depends on your workload of course, but my upgrade from 3700X to 9950X3D gave a massive boost and I should have upgraded to 16-core a lot earlier.
