The x3ds are the best for gaming… Which means overkill if not using a higher end gpu.
But it depends on what gpu and motherboard you have, then if you’re just trying upgrade CPU or build new.
Tomshardware isn’t as good as it used to be, but they do a good job with their comparisons for cpus and gpus.
If you’re not changing your GPU anytime soon, use an online calculator to find out what CPU matches it so you don’t bottleneck. A little either way isn’t a big deal.

I’m in the market for 5090, a small bottleneck is expected. But I’m aiming to ride it out till next year on this.
Then you’ll probably need the newest x3d.
But you’re going to have to wait for people to get their hands on it to know for sure what will bottleneck it
