Verdict — Ryzen 7 7800X3D
Displaced by the 9800X3D at the top of gaming charts, but only barely and often for less money. Excellent choice if the 9800X3D is out of stock or priced badly.
Verdict — Ryzen 5 5600X
If you already have one, no rush to upgrade. If you're buying new, the plain 5600 usually costs less and performs within a couple percent.
