You're awesome, thank you for sharing that!
That's been my current m.o. so far. My original thought, and reoccurring hope, is that some day the price comes down on the 3d chip enough to make it worth the 'bang vs buck' purchase, especially so since I just primarily game on my PC these days.

I feel your pain, it's just such a popular cpu it never seems to come down as much as you'd think. Kind of the end game for anyone who doesn't want a new motherboard.
Thank you. 🙂
Yep, agree. Maybe a fools hope, but I'm hoping that someday remaining stock will want to be sold off to make room for the 8000 line of CPUs, etc.
I wait a long time for Steam sales, and my 5800X takes well care of me today, so I'm not in a rush, and am used to the wait.
