I'm trying to decide between the R7 7700 and the R7 9700X for my video editing work. The R7 7700 is $95 cheaper, but I'm curious about whether the extra performance of the 9700X is worth the price. I mainly use programs like CapCut, DaVinci Resolve, Premiere Pro, After Effects, and Photoshop. Any advice?

You might want to consider the R7 7900 instead. It offers 4 more cores and is priced similarly to the 9700X, which could give you a better performance boost without breaking the bank.

Yeah, but the 7900 can be tougher to cool and uses more power. If you're looking for something more energy-efficient, it might not be the best fit right now.
