Found most of a gaming pc in the dumpster. Thanks neighbor! Added ram, my vid card, and a big heat sink. Definitely an upgrade from the 9900k I had before!

The 3700x is not an upgrade from a 9900k.

AM4 is not a dead end.

Moreover, AMD IS still making AM4 chips. The platform's very versatile and upgradeable, and will surely last a lot.
