With the release of the Ryzen 8000 series, the popular 5000 series will probably no longer be sold. For owners of computers with AM4 sockets, this is the last opportunity to upgrade their PC by buying a new (rather than used) processor. In my opinion, the processor is very good for its 160 euros (price at the time of writing). In the last year, the price of this brick has dropped by half. From 250 to 160 euros. It's ideal for a home computer as it doesn't require an upgrade of the platform to AM5, no new DDR5 memory and can fulfill the potential of any graphics card in the coming years.
Let's compare the performance of the Ryzen 7 5700X processor in Cinebench R23, first as delivered, then overclocked.

Ryzen 7 5700X in Cinebench R23 with maximum overclocking
The price of the new AMD Ryzen 5 7600X starts at 190 euros. At the same time, its performance in the popular Cinebench R23 test is very high. As I have already written, owners of older but still current AM4 platforms now have the opportunity to upgrade their PC for the next few years at a reasonable price.
