November 18, 20232 yr AMD 7800X3D. Assuming simming and gaming is your reason for purchase. I don't have one because I would also need a new motherboard and memory. In my case probably a new power supply too. So the AMD 5800X3D for me, which cost me $285. 5800X3D, RTX4070, 600 Watt, one or two 1440p 32" screens, 64 GB RAM, 4 TB PCle 3 NVMe, Warthog throttle, VKB NXT EVO stick, Honeycomb Alpha yoke, CH quad, 3 Logitech panels, 2 StreamDecks, Desktop Aviator Trim Panel. Crystal Light VR.
November 18, 20232 yr I use an AIO cooler but really that’s because I needed it for my previous i9 10900k CPU so I reused it with my 7800X3D. Otherwise I would have bought a good quality air cooler.
