The suitable next step would be a more responsive upgrade from 9700k. Considering performance, I’m curious about the optimal choice between AMD and Intel. It would also be great if we kept using DDR4 memory.

The 5800X3D is a solid choice, but the decision hinges on your budget. If it fits within your limits, you might opt for the 12400F. Alternatively, if you have more funds, an Intel Core i9 offers better performance while still using DDR4.

Upgrading to a fresh Windows version can significantly boost performance. Given how long you've used the current installation, it's likely accumulated many inefficiencies over time.

I've restored it a few years back. Apart from reinstalling Windows, what else could you try?

CPU is solid, but I won’t tolerate readability issues. If I stick to DDR4, the options are limited. The 12400f feels like a step back.

For sticking with DDR4, AM4 and LGA1700 are the main choices. The i7 9700K remains a solid gaming chip, but upgrading to a Ryzen 7 5800X3D or an i5 13600K would be worthwhile if your graphics card supports it. Are you mainly focused on gaming or do you handle more demanding tasks?

Primarily focused on gaming. I’m using an RX 6700xt and haven’t thought about upgrading right now. Plus, DDR5 is still quite costly these days.

The cost of DDR5 has fallen sharply. DDR4 remains more affordable, yet DDR5 is now comparable to the price of DDR4 before its release.

Yes, there is a notable distinction. The Ryzen 7 5800X3D includes an additional 3D V-Cache compared to the standard 5800X, enhancing performance in demanding tasks.

In productivity tasks, performance differences are minimal—5800X shows slight improvement. For gaming, the X3D component typically runs around 20% quicker under CPU constraints.
