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?

    Building a SFF gaming PC with 7800X3D and 4070 for the balance of performance, power/thermal requirements, and life in the AM5 platform.

      Honestly the 4070ti seems like a good value if you are going green given the power bump, and the 6950xt is crazy for the price rn.
