And 3060ti was pretty close to 3070. But 4060ti is roughly 30% slower than 4070. Worth waiting for the 4070.

1. AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D: Known for excellent gaming performance due to its 3D V-Cache, this CPU handles both gaming and productivity well. It's based on AMD's Zen 4 architecture, which has proven stable and efficient. The 3D V-Cache can significantly boost gaming performance, making it one of the best choices for gamers without any of the Raptor Lake voltage issues  .
2. AMD Ryzen 9 7900X: With 12 cores and strong multi-threading performance, this CPU is ideal for those who need robust processing power for tasks like video editing or rendering while still being excellent for gaming. The standard Ryzen 7000 series CPUs are known for stability and performance, without microcode instability issues like those observed with Intel's 13th and 14th Gen Raptor Lake models .
3. Intel Core i9-13900KS (from the Alder Lake series): While the Raptor Lake series has had some stability concerns, the previous-gen Alder Lake series (12th Gen) has been stable. The 13900KS is a powerhouse with strong performance across both gaming and productivity. Although it lacks the efficiency cores of the Raptor Lake models, it's a solid choice if you prefer Intel and want a stable, high-performing CPU without the risk of voltage or manufacturing issues .
Each of these CPUs supports DDR5 and PCIe 5.0, making them compatible with modern motherboards and future-proofed for upcoming tech. AMD's Zen 4 and Intel's Alder Lake are both proven, stable options in high-performance use cases.
Microcode updates happen all the time to fix issues with shipped processors.
This one just got more publicity, obviously due to the nature of the issue and a few online rags with some serious bias making a lot of noise about it.
What they've kept moderately quiet on is the Ryzen 5000 and 7000 series have reportedly worse failure rates for a similar issue that AMD had to handle in a very similar manner.
At the end of the day, warranties exist for a reason and we can just be glad this is a processor and not a car.
