Ryzen changes their sockets less often too. I went from a 2600 to a 3700x to a 5800x with the same motherboard. Unless Intel really steps up their game I don’t see any reason to switch back.
I just went full AMD when I realised their Open Source effort to market share ratio (alright, there is no metric for OS effort, I just do it by the feels) is way ahead of Intel.
A RISK-V based system is probably what comes over that.

Wasn’t that before they switched to LGA though?
They’ve committed to support AM5 (the LGA socket launched 2022) through at least 2027.

I’m still running a 3700x and had been thinking about upgrading. Is the 5800x the best choice for am4?
