Where would you spend $$$...new CPU or a GPU water block?

That graph really doesn’t pertain to @BegottenPoet228 situation as he is not doing VR.

But they are doing VR, as stated in the OP:

@BegottenPoet228

The question is, will the 5800X3D really give me the performance boost in VR I’m looking for?

@WingWarper1

While I agree that the upgrade from a 5800x to a 5800x3D will be minimal for VR it’s going to be much more significant for non-VR.

It was for me with a similar upgrade. It’s a pity I don’t fly 2D as my performance and visuals are much better than I get in VR, but VR is still far more preferable to me from an immersion perspective.
