worth upgrading i9 13900k w/4090 to r7 9800x3d w/5090?

Some people would tell you no, but honestly, if you’re really rich, you will see an improvement in games that are CPU intensive. The question of “is it worth it?” is up to you and how much disposable income you have.

It’ll be worth it if you have the disposable income.
Check out that Linus video saying should you upgrade to a 5090.

You’ll see a difference with DLSS 4.0.
But as @UwUk-Hai said, if you’re rich. Knock yourself out.

I agree I have a 13900k and know a 9800x3d would be better for gaming. If cash ain’t an issue do it. If not I’d wait for next gen CPUs maybe. That’s my plan anyway.

I haven’t seen much an improvement in many games at 1440p up with the x3d, I watched a benchmark video and it only did better in CSGO and a few others by a big margin at 1080p.
1080p it’s worthwhile but at 1440p/4K it doesn’t make a difference…? I don’t really know.

Dang your right just watched some more videos like hardware unboxed. 1080p sure but 1440p/4k very close. You made my day 
I wonder how this will scale in the future I see Intel is doing some x3d stuff in the future.
