I tested both the AMD Ryzen 9600X and the 9700X, and AMD has gone too far with the power limits - the CPUs barely outperform their own predecessors, which is very dissappointing.
The Ryzen 7 7800X3D is the best gaming processor of this generation, which not only delivers top-notch gaming performance but performs decently in rendering and productive workloads as well. Meanwhile, it's also one of the most efficient processors out there with a TDP of less than 150W in boost mode.
