Upgrade path clearly AM5 shines when using shaders, while the CPU won't be a major factor here. If you're running many mods without shaders, a 14700k would be ideal for Minecraft—though 7800X3D isn't terrible either. Performance-wise they're almost the same, though 7800X3D uses roughly 20W less. Either option will work well for this game; Forza Horizon 5 is especially optimized, making 7800X3D a solid choice.
I agree intel is a strong choice for content creation too. The 7950X3D could definitely stand out.
then definitely you don't even need to spend more than $2500 (though 4090 is quite bad value, 4080 super is better for gaming and productivity, 7900 XTX if just gaming and not using the gpu for productivity, since you're 3D modelling which uses the GPU the 4080 super is the one) PCPartPicker Part List CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D 4.2 GHz 16-Core Processor ($582.72 @ Amazon) CPU Cooler: ARCTIC Liquid Freezer III 56.3 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler ($116.99 @ Amazon) Motherboard: MSI X670E GAMING PLUS WIFI ATX AM5 Motherboard ($229.99 @ Amazon) Memory: * Silicon Power XPOWER Zenith Gaming 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR5-6000 CL30 Memory ($97.97 @ Amazon) Storage: * Acer Predator GM7000 2 TB M.2-2280 PCIe 4.0 X4 NVME Solid State Drive ($134.99 @ Amazon) Video Card: * Asus TUF GAMING GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER 16 GB Video Card ($999.99 @ ASUS) Case: Montech AIR 903 BASE ATX Mid Tower Case ($65.00 @ B&H) Power Supply: be quiet!
