Buying a PC for gaming mainly, monitor res is 1080 and 1440

the 14900 CPUs are insanely hot, and overkill for gaming.

the 7800X3D is far better for gaming

#

and the 4080 is still fantastic for 1440p gaming all the same

@limpid pumice thanks a lot meow_heart What about the one with Ryzen 9 7900X3D and 4090? Just want to get really good one so I won't need to rebuild anything for a long time and be sure that I'll be able to play everything I want doge

7900X3D isn't actually all that good for gaming,

the 7800X3d+4080 is still an awesome PC, the best gaming CPU currently available and the second best NVidia GPU will be a great rig for a very long time
