just bought amd 9700x and i will have it by next sunday the worry is that the main reason i have chosen the 9700x over the 7800x3d and the 9800x3d apart from the difference in price is the fact that i have heard various people in different websites complain that with their x3d cpu they have had stuttering and micro stuttering in their games and sometimes outside of games now this may be nothing to do with the cpu maybe its the gpu or drivers or some setting they need to change but i has put me off the x3d but i still have doubts maybe i should take the risk and get a x3d as this pc needs to last for a while as i will not be updating or replacing anytime soon but the thought of spending 2k on a pc and it having constant problems doesnt exactly fill me will happyness. dont worry this is just me having a rant.
 
I haven't had any microstuttering with my 7800X3D personally.

A lot of what is the right thing to do person by person is what you will be using the PC for and how long you plan to keep it before upgrading.
 
I don’t think the 9800x3d has these issues for sure, more likely some users - a lot of people are not fantastic at setting hardware, BIOS and software up we have to remember. I think the 9800x3d is pretty well recommended all over the place. We are assuming you have a very capable GPU also.

Don’t forget some games are also complete gardbage lol!
