Running FFXI uncapped at 240hz is hilarious I can say. Got mine at Launch because lol tarrifs.

Tl;dr: "IT'S AMD, WITH THE STEEL CHAIR!"

I have the 9950x3D and have been pretty happy with it. Don’t do much, so it’s complete overkill right now, but I was building a new system, so I bought the future proof possibility.

Both CPU's are for production work, not games. If a person is not rendering any files through Adobe programs or multimedia editing, only play games on computers, both CPU's are a waste of money, especially 9950x3D. Buy a 9950x for production work. For games, stick with Core Ultra 7 or Ryzen 7 x3D.

There are many more uses for all those cores than the two that you mentioned, and some of us do those things and play games.
