This is also two separate 6 core CCD, there are drawbacks if you have applications reaching across another CCD for data but that was more of an issue with X3D variants.

It depends on your use case but for gaming it shouldn't really be a problem.

I've notice a statement like this before. What makes the x3d series AMD so good if you have a discrete GPU card anyway?
The better your GPU the more likely your CPU will bottleneck it. The GPU is doing most of the work but the CPU still has to keep up.

With x3d chips you're getting a large stack of ultra fast L3 memory on the chip which is great for reducing latency which is important for gaming. The trade off is higher heat so they're not quite as good for pure workstation uses. The 9900x has four more cores than the 9800x3d you won't use for gaming but only 66% the L3 memory.

Though I when I made my original comment I thought they were closer in price. The 9800x3d is $100 more.

Honestly you won't notice much difference other than how long you can go before you start noticing bottle necks.

Wait and see if they drop prices, I think that combo was just $500. All their combos have gone up $50-100 in the last few days.
I bought this CPU bundled with the x870e tomahawk board a few weeks ago. The bundle with 32GB RAM was 549 at the time and I upgraded to 64GB slightly faster RGB RAM for $100 more. Seemed like the best deal/value around at that time for a decent PC for my son. Glad I bought and didn't wait. Now we are waiting for RTX 50 series to become more available. Until then he's using an old RX6600.

CPU has been maxed when playing most recent games and it's so bad with cod that my keys aren't always reporting when a key is no longer depressed. First thing I did was swap out keyboards to make sure that wasn't the issue. Have played several other recent titles and don't have the same issue so half of it is probably the terrible game I'm deciding to play. (clocks are fine at idle so don't think I'm dealing with malware or too many background tasks)
I mean, it is COD. A very well known unoptimized game.

Was on a business trip last week and the 9900x combo with X870E Tomahawk was $50 cheaper than it is currently. They didn't have the motherboard in stock except for an open box, so they knocked the $60 discount off the combo price. Upgraded to the 64GB memory kit and total was $589.99 Feel like I should have worn a mask while checking out.
