I really want a x3d because a game I play is heavily single threaded, I have the income and the financial stability but I can't in any good conscious upgrade to am5 with the ram prices. It's insane

Yep exactly the same situation.

I would not be surprised if we see casualties in adjacent markets, such as motherboards, coolers and whatnot.

AMD had an upgrade path with the 5700x3d, assuming you’re on AM4.

Just reading now that they went out of production half a year ago which is a shame. I was very impressed being able to upgrade with the same motherboard 6 years down the line.
