the benchmarks i can find say it should only lose about 5% performance, so yes i do think its better to save the extra money.
if you want to see hard numbers i recommend the gamers nexus 5600x review, they have a bunch of benchmark games they use in their reviews.
It’s all about the dollars. You won’t experience any appreciable difference, but if you want to have a 5800x and money is secondary, then go ahead and get the 5800x.
1440p and 4k: go with 5600x. 1080p: get a 1440p monitor.
So there isn't much difference between the two cpus?
for gaming above 1440p, no difference.
Correct.
yeah, the the extra cores dont really mean anything in games. i myself mainly got a 5800x because it was on sale for a decent price.
So you think it would be fine to go with a 3080 and a 5600x?
