Should I stick with the 9900X3D or swap for the 9950X3D?

I mostly use my PC for gaming and some hobby productivity. I ordered a 9950X3D, but there was a mix-up, and I received a 9900X3D first. The cool part is they sent me the 9950X3D for free as a replacement, so now I have both processors. The 9900X3D is already installed and running smoothly, but the 9950X3D just arrived. Is it worth the effort to swap them out, or should I sell the 9950X3D since I might not see a significant performance jump?

It’s kind of frustrating how AMD names their products. Just make sure to look up benchmarks before making a decision; it’ll save you a headache in the future!

If the 9900X3D is working fine for you, consider just keeping it and selling the 9950X3D. It can fetch a higher price since it’s the newer model, plus not everyone needs the upgrade.

If you're mainly gaming, I'd definitely go with the 9950X3D. It's got 8 cores and the extra v-cache will help with gaming performance, so swapping it out is a smart call. The 9900X3D has only 6 cores utilizing the v-cache, so you’ll get better results with the newer chip.

Honestly, just sell the 9900X3D and keep the 9950X3D. It’s a better overall chip, especially for gaming. You'll get more return on the 9950X3D too, so it’s a win-win!
