I'm in the process of building a PC primarily for gaming and some small-scale rendering and modeling in CAD. My budget is around €1000, and I'm still undecided on which GPU to get. I'm open to any recommendations, including different CPUs that might be a better fit for my needs.

Before deciding, consider what software you’re using for CAD. If it’s more reliant on CPU or GPU. For general CAD tasks, even a decent gaming PC will be fine. Spending nearly €400 on a 7800X3D may limit your GPU budget too much. I suggest going with a cheaper CPU like the 7500F and allocating more for a good GPU.
If gaming is your main focus, spend more on the GPU and consider the non-X 7700. It offers better value and performance compared to the 7800X3D when you're on a budget.
The 7600X3D is actually a great option as it performs closely to the 7800X3D yet is often cheaper. It could save you some cash while still giving you solid performance! Check out some comparison videos online.
Honestly, prioritize the GPU over the CPU for gaming. A non-X 7700 might give you more room to invest in a better graphics card.
I think you should definitely consider the 7800X3D for its superior performance! It’s definitely a great option if you can stretch your budget a bit.
Not sure it's worth that with a budget around €1000.
