most people looking at this have an am4 board right now
I have a 3700x from about 2018.. i don't see much in the way of life changing improvement over clearing a slight fps bottleneck on an amd 7900xt
Kinda hard to compare a $250 upgrade to a $700 upgrade bud

Depends on what your doing. I'm currently working on a video project and it would turn a 24 minute render into about 12 minutes for me. I have a ryzen 5 3600. I have a friend with a 5900x and it would be the way to go. Although. I've seen the 5950x for sale similar price
You'd have to consider if your cooling needs to be upgraded, as the 5900x runs hotter
I'd add this:
It's not future proofing at this price.
It is a performance boost, but it's not really substantial compared to what you could probably get on newer platforms when value for the price is considered
Sinking more money into AM4? Again. How can you compare 250$ to a 700$ upgrade? Changing to AM5 is gonna be 3x the price of this. And for similar performance for a 7700x too
