It depends; if funds are tight with strict limits, 40EUR is often better spent on something else—like a solid power supply or extra storage.
Additionally, there are instances where your GPU is consistently restricted in games (especially SP titles running at high resolutions), and even with improvements like extra clocks, cycles per operation, or cache usage, you don’t see any benefit. That’s why I didn’t upgrade from a 5900X to a 5800X3D—because the performance gains there were minimal.
Based on what I know, the games that gain the most from extra cache are usually those with big open environments and a lot of assets. It makes sense to prioritize getting the highest performance if you're aiming for an x3D chip—maximize the benefits. Your decision should mainly depend on your budget, but either option works well.
