I'm looking for advice on the best CPU to use with the RX 9070 graphics card. Could anyone suggest some optimum options based on performance and budget?

Why not just go for the 9070 XT? It's only about a 10% price jump and offers better performance—worth considering if your budget isn’t that strict! But if you've already chosen the 9070, then yeah, the Ryzen 7600X or 7800X3D would still be good choices, especially for high resolutions.
First off, what’s your budget for the CPU? That really helps narrow down the recommendations!
When it comes to pairing with the RX 9070, your choices depend on a few factors like budget, what you’ve already got, and even where you live due to availability. If you’re on a budget, you might want to consider something like the Ryzen 7600 or 7800X3D. The latter is a solid pick for future-proofing, especially if you plan on gaming at 1440p.
Got it! I'll keep that in mind for sure.
I'm aiming for around $200.
