Quite unbelievable how AMD has botched the Zen5 release, especially since there was no need in rushing these CPUs out the door at all. Why couldn't they wait until these improvements were commonly available? Also, at least from initial testing, it seems that these changes improve Zen4 performance almost the same way as Zen5, so at least when it comes to gaming performance, there's currently no reason to expect that Zen5 will be able to justify its increased price tag. I can safely say that buying a 5800X3D was one of the best purchases I ever made, I still see no reason to upgrade...
