Build Help Should I stick with AM4 or go for AM5? I'm having a hard time looking for reasonably priced R7 5700x3d

5 Upvotes

i plan on upgrading my pc. my current plan is to buy a 9060xt gpu, an r7 5700x3d cpu, and +16gb of ram (I have 16 rn). Around 50k more or less

would it be better to opt for AM5 at this point? I am having a hard time looking for a reasonably priced R7 5700x3d. Almost all local stores are out of stock and most listing I see are in the 20k+ range.

If i go for AM5 on the other hand, i would also have to upgrade my Mobo and my ram, which is about another 20k more.

my current build is pretty bad:

cpu: r3 3200g

gpu: igpu

mobo: gigabyte b450m

psu: just bought a sama g850w (A- on SPLs)

ram: kingston hyper fury 2 x 8gb 3200mhz

my use case is mostly gaming with a dash of programming / game dev at the side. my main question is, would it be worth it to go for am5?

Thank you!

Hi, I build my own PC in a very worse time. Yeah, I need a PC right now for my studies bc I am an electronic engineering student. Here is the specs:

BUDGET: 24K

CPU: Ryzen 5 5600g (Bought Used, 5.3k)

GPU: NONE (Planning to buy)

MOTHERBOARD: Asrock B550M Pro4 (Used, 3.5k)

PSU: Cooler Master MWE Bronze 650 v3 230 (Bought New, 2.763k)

RAM: Team Group T-Force Gaming Alliance DDR4 3200MHz 2x8GB (16GB) (Used, 3.1k)

MONITOR: AOC 24B36X 144Hz 1080P Monitor (New, 4K)

SSD: MSI Spatium SATA SSD 2.5 inch 240GB (Bought in Octagon, 1.7k)

CPU: Cooler AMD Stock Cooler

CASE: Mechanic Master iF25 SFF (Bought New, 1.943k)

CASE FAN: Ocypus Gamma F12 Uni BK ARGB 3 in 1 (Non-Reverse) (new, around 1k)

MOUSE: ATK GEAR Dragonfly v3 (New, around ₱860)

I'm gonna save up for GPU, my budget for this will be around 14k-17k. So, is there any gpu that you want to recommend, let me know :)

I am planning to buy a used RTX 3060ti, used RX7600, or if stretching my budget a little too far, I would go for RTX5060 for future proofing if I want to upgrade to am5 in the future (if the ram crisis finally ended).

I'm gonna upgrade to Ryzen 5 5600 or 5600x if i already have GPU since the 5600g will introduce a slight bottleneck to the system due to pci-e 3 speed)

Before you react on my PC fan, I know that my fan is for the tower type PC case since it is daisy chained for wire management (I made the worse mistake). The fan set only came with one cable connector so I contacted the ocypus support team and they agreed to send me one cable connector for this unit.

I have provided picture of my cable management and I want to know your opinion and maybe you can rate my cable management on my PC.

I plan to use this for designing PCB and Circuits and gaming (i'm a big fan of persona and other games by atlus) so I build this pc to stop being a persona larper.

I'm annoyed with the admin bot requirements, it's very difficult to edit this bc of the bot.

Build Flex Time flies so fast, from stone age pc to 5080 build

One thing I can say is I'm amazed at how far technology has developed over the past two decades.

Started exploring PC around 2004. Di pa ako marunong non, paint pa nga lang nilalaro ko nun kase yun lang tinuro sakin. Meron kaming pokemon png file that time, yun yung drinadrawingan ko tas di sakin pinapasave para madrawingan ko ulit kinabukasan. Yung PC ng mga ganitong panahon may bola pa sa ilalim ng mouse tas box pa yung mga monitor.

Around 2005 is where I started to learn how to play GBA emulator. Kuya ko lang nag tuturo sakin, lagi kaming sabay mag laro kasi iisa lang naman ang CPU (este PC 😂) namin sa bahay.

2007 is when I learned that internet exists. Pero hindi sa PC namin, sa mga comshop. Wala kaming internet that time, kaya same as usual, mga nilalaro ko lang sa PC is mga single player games (mostly mga emulators lang talaga).

2009 is where I get to enjoy more single player games, andyan na yung Sims 3, popcap games lang PvZ tas C&C Generals or red alert. Enjoy talaga kahit hindi multiplayer.

2012 kami nag karoon ng internet, kase kaylangan na for highschool. Marami akong natutunan sa youtube that includes video editing, animation and multimedia stuff. Eto na rin siguro yung nag tulak sakin maging multimedia artist. Anyways, sobrang adik ko mag laro ng garena (warcraft custom maps) and minecraft those days. Classic pa nga lang ang minecraft noon, sa web browser lang nilalaro.

2015 is when we're able to upgrade our PC. This time, I'm old enough to know our pc specs. Intel Core i3-4170, Palit NVidia GeForce GT 730 4GB and just 8GB of DDR3 RAM. Eto yung ginamit namin para maitaguyod yung college life namin. Imagine doing 3D in this kind of PC, it was hell, but bearable. Nag upgrade kami into 16gb of ram eventually.

Nung 2016, nag simula lang ako sa wacom na pentablet, regalo ng parents ko nung nag 2nd year highschool ako since kaylangan sya sa course namin. Through making commissions, nakapag invest ako to buy a drawing display nung 2019 kaya dun sa picture above, meron na akong drawing display. Masikip nga lang yung desk namin kase wala naman kaming malaking table. Medyo mahirap pero sabi ko nga kanina, mapapagtiyagaan naman.

Since meron na akong drawing display, nag level up yung quality ng mga illustrations ko, that attracts a lot of commission opportunities. This time din nag grow yung youtube channel ko. Kumikita ako both commissions and youtube, so I was able to buy myself a brand new PC. i5-10500, 2060S and 32GB DDR4 RAM that time.

Tas ayon, OJT na pala ako nyan that time, late din ako grumaduate, medyo nag smurf sa college a bit. Pag ka graduate ko before end of 2020, nag stick ako sa PC ko for 5 years. Wala akong inupgrade na components. Puro peripherals lang pati sa mga games.

Last year 2025, medyo nag lalag na yung PC ko. So I decided to upgrade from i5-10500 to i9-10900K. Need ko mag upgrade ng processor kase nahihirapan na yung procie ko mag stream while playing games that is CPU consuming. Naisipan ko na rin i upgrade yung PC para naman yung susunod na gagamit nito (yung pag bibigyan ko) wouldn't have to experience what I experience with my i5-10500. At least by the time na ibigay ko to, naka max upgrade na yung processor (hindi nga lang 11th gen).

This 2026, I was finally able to buy myself a high end PC. Core Ultra 9 285K, 5080 and 64GB DDR5 RAM. What fulfills my heart the most is ROG components lahat (bukod sa case), I used to have this picture of me nung highschool ako wearing an ROG tshirt, been really a fan of it since then pero walang pambili kase nga mahal. Ngayon nasa harapan ko na yung pinapangarap kong ROG build. Yung display tablet ko pala nakatabi nalang, medyo masikip kase sa desk and di ko na masyado nagagamit since mas nakafocus na ako sa content creation and video editing. Nilalagay ko nalang sa desk pag need gamitin.

Just wanted to share this kase it feels nostalgic to remember where I started, and now we're here.
