AMD’s new CPU hits 132fps in Fortnite without a graphics card::Also get 49fps in BG3, 119fps in CS2, and 41fps in Cyberpunk 2077 using the new AMD Ryzen 8700G, all without the need for an extra CPU cooler.

AMD has been pretty good about this though, AM4 lasted 2016-2022. Compare to Intel changing the socket every 1-2 years, it seems.

Actually AMD is still releasing new AM4 CPUs now. 5700x3D was just announced.

Oh, now that sounds like something I might like

I don't have the fastest RAM out there, so whenever I upgrade from my 1600, I want an X3D variant to help with that

I think I'm gonna get one of the higher end models, since it'll be the last possible upgrade I can do on my motherboard.

So 5700X3D or 5800X3D, depending on what the prices look like whenever I'm gonna be in the market for them. And then I'll be set for a looong while. Well, an appropriately fast GPU would be nice to go along with it, but you know.

But it's pretty cool that they made a 5600 variant too. Might as well use the chips they evidently still have left over
