I'm in the process of building a gaming PC and I'm stuck on a decision between AMD and Intel processors. I've heard that AMD has its X3D chips with a 3D V-Cache that boosts gaming performance, while Intel seems to offer more cores and higher clock speeds. I'm looking for advice on which brand generally offers better price-to-performance for gaming. Any insights would be appreciated!

AMD is definitely the standout choice. While Intel has some great CPUs, the extra cores are mostly E cores, which don't help much with gaming. Gamers benefit more from the P cores, and AMD offers a solid equivalent with the same number of P cores.
Right now, AMD is seen as the go-to for gaming. Those X3D CPUs are hard to beat in terms of performance for games, but it also depends on your budget. What are you looking to spend?
True! In gaming scenarios, AMD CPUs have shown some solid advantages, especially with the X3D models.
