I recently picked up a Ryzen 7 9700X to pair with my RTX 5070. I'm curious if this combination works well together or if I should have opted for the Ryzen 7 7700X instead. Would love to hear your thoughts!

It really depends on pricing! For gaming, the performance difference between the 9700X and 7700X is pretty small. The 7700X offers just a slight edge over the 7600, so you’re likely fine with the 9700X if you got it for a good price.
I got the 9700X for $30 more, is it worth it?
