Consider the 7900x only if you plan to do some content creation or perform threaded operations (modeling, rendering, coding, etc...) and playing some sim/city builder games.
I have the 9700x paired with a 5080, and at 4K, the CPU is rarely the bottleneck and is able to keep up just fine.
For any resolution lower than 4K, I recommend spending extra for an X3D cpu (preferably the 9800X3D) so that it doesn't bottleneck your 4080 super.
I've played the BO7 and BF6 Betas and I was happy with the performance.Hope this helps!
I've been waiting for a deal on the 9600X but have considered the the 9700X and 7900X for productivity tasks. At $250, it's very tempting.
