When you have a Micro Cener nearby, the price for 1400K is $329.
I have an i7 14700 in my b760 board. After a bios update, you might consider that path. Alternatively, you could look at a 12700k or i9 12900. This could provide a general estimate.

Personally, I wouldn’t suggest going straight for the 5800x3d. It might perform better in certain games, but the prices for am4 x3d CPUs are rising. It could be worth waiting or fixing another component if you’re not happy with something else. For instance, a case swap or adding an extra SSD would be good options.
