Which AMD CPU should I actually buy right now for strict 4K gaming cause Im totally lost? I keep seeing conflicting stuff online where some bench tests say the 7800X3D is the absolute king because of the cache, but then other forums claim a 7700X is plenty since 4K is mostly GPU bound anyway. My budget is around 400-500 bucks for the chip and I need to pull the trigger by this weekend since my current rig just died on me in the middle of a Cyberpunk session. So do I really need the X3D chip for 4K or am I just wasting money?
At 4K AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D 8-Core 16-Thread gives better 1% lows than AMD Ryzen 7 7700X 8-Core 4.5 GHz, so grab the X3D if it fits your budget.
