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?

I’m running 3900x on desktop, 4800hs on laptop and 12900hx on workstation for work.

Only bad thing i can say is that the intel cpu have felt slow due to bad scheduling on the efficiency core to the point where i have disabled them.

Login screen was very slow as E-cores were prioritized, yet overloaded due to too many small apps running. Yep my company setup sucks

So i say go with what ever your gut tells you. Either choise is good. Remember that AMD have more PCI-e lanes if that is relevant.
