If you already have an AMD AM4 platform system or you’re trying to build a good budget gaming system then the $250 AMD Ryzen 5700X3D is a strong contender. It beats out an Intel i5-13600KF on gaming benchmarks.
The 5800X3D costs 20% plus more and has a 15% performance advantage or so over the 5700X3D in gaming. For most people’s use cases the 5700X3D should be more than fine and they won’t notice that 15% less.
It is a strange release this far into the AM4’s life cycle but we are not complaining!
