I'm looking to upgrade my PC and I'm considering two CPUs: the 250KF priced at $210 and the 7600X3D at $240. I plan on using an RX 9070 graphics card and want a setup that will last me about 10 years, possibly upgrading to DDR6 in the future. I'm mainly going to play games like Mount and Blade II, Red Dead Redemption 2, and Hitman. Which CPU would be more worth the investment?

For pure gaming performance, the 7600X3D tends to perform better in most scenarios and it draws less power, making it a solid choice.
If you're looking for a balance between gaming and productivity, consider that AMD is generally better for gaming, while Intel may hold up better for multitasking.
Can you clarify which one is better value for their prices at $210 and $240?
