I'm looking for a CPU to match with a 5070 for a new build. Is the 7800X3D still worth considering, or should I look at other options?

While many say it’s the second best and worth it, it really depends on your specific needs. You might also want to consider something like the 7600 or 9600X, especially based on the games you're into and your display settings. If money's not an issue, then the 7800X3D or even a 9800X3D would be an awesome choice!
That makes sense—it's always about balancing cost with what you'll actually use it for.
Yeah, if you can swing it, go for the 7800X3D! It's a solid choice that should serve you well for gaming.
Honestly, if it were up to me, I'd only go for the 9800X3D or 9950X3D. Everything below that feels like a waste with the tech we have now. The upgrade from a 7800X3D to a 9800X3D was significant when I made it, so keep that in mind!
Absolutely! The 7800X3D is considered the second-best gaming CPU out there right now, so it's definitely worth it for a gaming setup.
Right? Sometimes you don't need the top-tier to get a great gaming experience!
