and you could get a 7900xtx for $60 less
odd tangle
Nice

their 13th/14th gen cpus have catastrophic voltage problems
and there's no upgrade path at all on lga 1700
am5 is gonna be 2027+

I don’t know many tech terms so I’m not sure what that is
matx has 4 expansion slots comapred to atx's 7

Its only slightly faster. I find the toms hardware chart to be unclear and somewhat misleading at times

the 7800x3d is the fastest gaming cpu money can buy right now
brittle meteor
if you need to do other things like video editing and need more cpu power, a non-x3d cpu would probably not bottleneck the 7900xtx at 1440p
but it would depend on the game
if this is just for gaming though, the 7800x3d is a no-brainer
