The power consumption is what gets me. Using much less power while performing better and costing less? There's no good reason to get Intel at this price range, not if gaming is your priority. More on reddit.com

I’m putting together a dream build I want - the absolute best spec pc I can buy at the moment, which will be either a i9 13900k or the Ryzen 7 7800X3D *unsure yet* with a 4090 - I will be moving up to a 4k display too, my question is tho, what sort of temps would I be looking at with either...

Youtubers be testing CPUs on 10 games that will show same exact results with no difference between processors because they are graphic bound titles with RT, meanwhile nobody fucking tests which CPU will make turn times in Warhammer shorter. You are already literally testing Warhammer to only show theres no difference in FPS you dorks. Every Warhammer player knows that in big battles fps will drop to 20 fps anyway, we don't care. We want late game turns to take less then 5 minutes. Same with games like Civ. Nobody cares about FPS in Civ More on reddit.com

3D cache does wonders, especially in Tarkov. I’d go with 7800X3D. It’s a beast out of the box. Even with stock settings performance is close to top notch manually overclocked 13th gen paired with OCed 8000 DDR5 (which requires a 700 dollar motherboard btw). 7800X3D is a nobrainer here. 2x cheaper, fast as hell, no tuning required.
