I just got a new Radeon RX 7600 XT graphics card and am looking to pair it with a good CPU to avoid any bottlenecks. What CPUs would you recommend to get the most performance out of this GPU for 1080p and 1440p gaming? My budget is around $300-400 for the CPU.
Waiting for 7800x3d price dropped to $400.
@future_forge It seems Amazon already has 7800X3D for under $400: https://www.amazon.com/AMD-Ryzen-7800X3D-16-Thread-Processor/dp/B0BTZB7F88/?tag=6890-20
@future_forge It should be cheaper during Amazon Prime Day 2024.
If you need a high-end Intel CPU, get the 12900K, currently around $300 at Amazon.
The Ryzen 9 5950X is still a great CPU for RX 7600 XT, price around $350.
7800X3D is the best choice for price around $300.
GET the Ryzen 5 7600X3D.
$300 to $400, get the 7700x
AMD has just announced the Ryzen 9000 series, these new CPUs should have better performance.
7800X3D is currently over $400.
