Hey folks! I'm building a new gaming PC and could really use some guidance. I'm set on getting the RX 9070 graphics card mainly for gaming at 1440p resolution. I'm currently considering three CPUs: the 7500F, 7700, and 9600X, as they're all within my budget. Which one do you think would be the best choice for gaming, and why? Also, if you have suggestions for other parts that would fit well in my build, I'd love to hear them. Thanks for any help you can provide!

I’d go with the 9600X; it's not only affordable but offers the best gaming performance among those three options. It consistently outperforms the 7700 in gaming scenarios. Plus, if you're on a tighter budget, the 7500F is a solid choice too, as you can usually find it for around $130. Just make sure to pair your CPU with some good RAM to get the most out of it!
What does FCLK 1:1 even mean? I haven't heard that term before.
I'm mainly after performance too, but I've noticed that prices fluctuate a lot in Europe, so that's been tricky for me.
