>But the next leaps are gonna be huge ones. New nodes for nvidia and amd and new socket for intel promising 4 generations of support. And the 9800X3D jump to 7800X3D jump had an architecture redesign and a massive jump in performance. And it's not that far out.
Posts like this are killing me, I've been waiting 11 years but mayyyybe I just have to wait a little longer. Seems really dumb to finally upgrade right before a big paradigm change. I'll be stuck with no upgrade path but a complete rebuild and everyone will be running around getting 500fps in 8k running 30c temps with their super computers meanwhile my long awaited upgrade will be old hat before the warranty even runs out.
I know this isn't really how it would be but that's how it feels. I feel paralyzed not knowing what the right choice will be. I can't wait forever I suspect this thing only has a little time left before it gives up the ghost. And there are games on the horizon I want to play. But for a once in a decade build I really wanted to go all out for once.
