So much choice... What a great time to be alive!
Would be a decent deal at sub £250 if you didnt want to upgrade from AM4.
If you do other processor intense things, like video editing, the 5900X is preferable.
My wife used to have issue streaming live and recording multiple sources at the same time (via OBS). Upgrading to the 5900 solved the issues she had. (she preferred CPU encoding not GPU encoding, based on Da Vinci resolve free version not working with the GPU encoded video files).
We bought it at £330 a few months ago, but I've not seen it cheaper since - so this is a good price. It's good if you're looking for an AM4 socket processor, but if buying a whole new setup - all future AMD processors will use a newer socket so won't fit your motherboard.
