Unfortunately I've already bought it. I wasn't looking for the best top of the line stuff, but I know what I'm getting is a huge upgrade and that I'll be happy with it.

I'm going from a 2060 6bg to a 5070 12gb
going from a AMD Ryzen 7 3700X to a 7 7700X
16gb ddr4 to 32gb ddr5

It's going to be such an improvement. I'm really excited.

The good thing is though that the CPUs aren't that expensive so that's an easy upgrade in the near future.

oh yeah, also adding a 1TB SSD, away from my 1TB HDD.


I've returned so many cpu's at a change of heart.
I built my fiance's PC with a 7800x3d paired with a 4080. Pretty rad.
I figured the extra 70 bucks for a great boost might not effect your wallet and give you a option of a higher ceiling.
Everything else looks good, M.2's for hard drives are also a nice convenient part instead of 2.5" ssd's.

I returned my 7800x3d on my build to go with the intel i9 13000k.
Not sure why Speccy shows my RAM at 3000mhz, I went into BIOS out of fear and its set to 6k so dunno.

I appreciate the advice. I'll see how this all works out. If I hadn't already bought the current cpu I would have changed.

Kinda worried about your board, is it AM5 compatible?
7700x is a AM5 chip, will not fit on a AM4 chipset board.

Yeah uh oh.
Board might be in your future too.
The AMD Ryzen 7 3700X uses the AM4

It is, yeah. It supports 7000, 8000, and 9000 series. I was going to try and get a 9000 but I couldn't pick it up local anywhere, so I ended up getting the one I did cause I could get it sooner.

Huh, I've never seen a am4 board compatible with am5, that's different.
3700 chip is am4, so I'm assuming you have that mnounted now.
7700 is a am5 bracket. You have my wonder.
Just be weary when pulling down the lever lol.
