I’m wanting to upgrade this month as I’ve previously posted. I’m going from a 9700k.

Initially I was looking at the 14700k but now I’m considering the AM5 platform.

It’s cheaper, the socket will have a longer lifespan and the 7800X3D is superior in games.

What are people’s thoughts?

9600K + 3080FE (alt PC now, used for VMs/HW and occasionally coop stuff) to 7800x3D + 4090FE. Open to either and this time, I went AMD for longevity and due to the strong CPU performance in games I play/runs fairly cool otherwise. Been very happy with the results and experience for a few months so far.
