7800X3D together with RX 7600XT good?

[raz]

AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D together with a RX 7600XT
is this maybe to much of a strong CPU and i should go for something lower?
if so.. what cpu would you reccomend?

[Lixire]

Overspending on the CPU in that case. You can def pick something like 7600X as your CPU and put the extra money towards a faster graphics card which will make a much bigger impact when it comes to performance.

[Julien, cut it out.]

Resolution and FPS/ Hz targets determine the GPU.
FPS/Hz target determines the CPU.

The biggest part of a gaming pc budget should be allocated on the GPU.
A CPU with more cache does offer a significant increase in performance if the limitation stems from the CPU-side. But the RX 7600 XT is in any case only an entry-level GPU. It offers not enough performance and will be the limiting factor at any resolution in a system with a CPU with a good single-threaded performance.

If budget constrained, swap the 6 and the 8 and you're better off: Ryzen 5 7600(X) with an RX 7800XT
You can still upgrade the CPU in time. Releases of new CPUs on the AM5 socket is guarenteed for at least another year (Ryzen 9000 guaranteed and maybe even Ryzen 11000).

HU recently published a video on a similar topic.
A GPU with higher computing power offers better performance with a weaker CPU in graphically more dermaning games, compared to a system with a better performing CPU but a weaker GPU. Even at 1080p.

What AMD card would you suggest to pair with the 7800X3D?

[mtono]

i dont see a problem, because the fast 7800x3d can handle the rx 7600 xt easily and if the 7600xt brings you diesired framerate it is good enough. with the 7800x3d cpu you can upgrade the gfx board later without problems. if i had the money, i would just buy the 7800x3d cpu. why not?

[raz]

thanks for the replies ..
i was actually thinking of getting the 7800x3d with the 4070Ti but its a bit expensive... so i thought about something cheaper... and end up with those..
what you think if i go with a cheaper cpu like the ryzen 5 7600 and instead of the 7600xt i go for the rtx 4060? or maybe even the ti if the budget is enough

[xSOSxHawkens]

There is nothing wrong with the setup, it will just be a bit more CPU cappable. Personally thats how I would rather my system be. You will have way better minimums on a system that is hanstrung by the GPU than one hamstrung by the CPU.

As long as you plan to someday upgrade the 7600xt but keep the 7800x 3d for at least one more GPU, it will be a worth while investment. If you plan to get a new machine with a new GPU, get a lower end CPU for now.

If you play strategy games like Civ 6 and Age of Empires then the x3d is a sensible option. 7600 would work fine for 1080p on those games. If you bump it up to 1440p, then a 7700 may be needed. Depends on the graphical details selected.

7600 XT is overpriced trash, 6700 XT beats it easily and you can get it for same price. 6800 is not that much more expensive either.

at the very least a 7900xt but preferably a 7900xtx or 4080 or 4090.

the problem is that you haven't told us what you are aiming for:
- 1080p high fps?
- 1440p ultra quality and high fps?
- 2160p ultra quality capped at 60?

I currently have an RX 6600 XT with that cpu. I haven't played warzone yet but typically I do at 1440.

Go with Ryzen 5 7600x and RX 7800 XT much better, also you can upgrade your cpu later down the line (same motherboard) with the future generation of ryzens, probably up until 2026 or for how long they'll support the platform

[spicy little monkey]

7800x3d is very nice... with a high end gfx card.

You should spend less on CPU and get a faster gfx card, if you can't afford to have both.

[Bad 💀 Motha]

7800X3D with best GPu you can afford is great combo choice

[spicy little monkey]

Only if he gets at least a Radeon RX 7900 GRE.

The 7600xt is not that much better than a 6600xt. That's not really a meaningful upgrade.

and instead of the 7600xt i go for the rtx 4060?

And the 4060 is basically the same, except for better RT & DLSS.
