Hello, as the title states, I want your opinion to help me decide between a 5800x3D or a 7700x, will be paired with 32gb ram and a 3070 (/or 3080,depends on its price when I'll order it)
I just found the 5800x3D at the same price with the 7700x, thats why I am asking
( will buy from PCS, just wantes your opinion on this topic)
Thanks!

AM4 is older, so it won't last as long as far as upgradeability as AM5 will, however AM4 should still be around for a long time.
you might face a little bottlenecking on an AM4 with the 3080, but it shouldn't be much, if any.
can't really tell you which is better for you, spend more now, and be able to upgrade for a long time, or save now and upgrade for a less long but still decently long time

Thanks for the reply and sorry for my LATE LATE reply, was just really busy with my exams.
I would like to also ask your opinion on getting a 5800x3d or a 5900x.
Pc will be used mostly for gaming and other programs such as solidworks and photoshpp

If the 7700X and 5800X3D are coming to the same price then the 7700X is an absolute no brainier. It’s the fastest gaming CPU that makes sense (so excluding the 13900KS and 7950X3D 
) and you’ll have future upgradability on your side @ancient dirge

What about the choice between a 5800x3D and a 5900x?
