I'm getting a free AM4 motherboard from a friend and just need to buy the CPU. I'm not really familiar with AMD's lineup. Would a Ryzen 7 5700X be a solid choice for multitasking, gaming, and running virtual machines?

I actually snagged a used 5700X3D for just €70! It’s worth checking the used market.
Yes, the Ryzen 7 5700X should meet your needs, just keep in mind you’ll need a dedicated GPU since it doesn't come with integrated graphics.
Yeah, the Ryzen 7 5700X is a great choice at that price! Perfect for multitasking and gaming.
The 5700X is currently around $200. For your budget, the Ryzen 5 5600X would be a better fit while still offering solid performance for gaming and multitasking.
