Get this cpu if you need to upgrade from a 4 core from 5-6 years ago and plan on upgrading in another 3 years. It pairs fine with a 6800xt and a 3080, however there are some slight stutters from time to time. The 5800x is a bit smoother because of the core count and should be considered when deciding on which to buy.
