I’m wanting to upgrade this month as I’ve previously posted. I’m going from a 9700k.

Initially I was looking at the 14700k but now I’m considering the AM5 platform.

It’s cheaper, the socket will have a longer lifespan and the 7800X3D is superior in games.

What are people’s thoughts?

    After exclusively buying only intel CPU’s, this time around I went with a 7800x3d to upgrade from my 8700k. Zero issues so far and my pc handles everything I throw at it while drawing less power and staying cooler. I strictly use it for gaming and some adobe Lightroom here and there.

      Same here … Also got rid of those frickin micro stutters. All in all the X3D chips are decent enough.
