I'm using the Asus ROG Strix X870E-H motherboard. I'm curious if the 16+2+1 VRM configuration is enough to handle the power needs of a 9800X3D processor. Any insights on this would be appreciated!

The VRM count is really not that critical. The 9800X3D typically draws under 100W for most tasks, so your setup will handle it without any issues.
You've got more than enough VRM phases for the 9800X3D. Honestly, you could save some cash and go for a less expensive B850 motherboard unless you specifically need features from the X870E chipset.
Your motherboard has solid power delivery! It can easily power multiple 9800X3Ds during gaming sessions.
