Ryzen changes their sockets less often too. I went from a 2600 to a 3700x to a 5800x with the same motherboard. Unless Intel really steps up their game I don't see any reason to switch back.
I'm still running a 3700x and had been thinking about upgrading. Is the 5800x the best choice for am4?
5800X3D is still a gaming beast, and 5950X is best in slot for productivity, but make sure there's a bios update available for your motherboard for the cpu you plan to buy first
