Just bought the 5700X at £175, however, sub £200 for the 5800X seems like a good deal.

sorted byIf you're using your PC for multithread productivity workflows then you'd see improvement, but whether the extra cost is worth it would depend on what said workflow was.
On top of that, the 5800X runs SIGNIFICANTLY hotter than a 5600, so there's also a chance that you'd need to upgrade your cooler. I'm running one of these with a 280mm EK AIO, and it regularly runs at 50-60 degrees under light loads, peaking around 80 degrees (albeit with a small overclock). I imagine it'd start throttling pretty quickly with anything less capable. (edited)
They're going to have to spend a bit more (this thing gets HOT), and for a relatively small performance increase over the 5700X.
I've installed both of the above in PC's in the last couple of years, and I'd recommend the 5700X, at £174 it's a better choice. (edited)
