I did see some results that included a 3600 and the difference was in the 1-5% range compared to top tier intel.

At 4k it's 1%.

Edit - found it;

Phew, was starting to get worried as I know Intels still have the edge in gaming but some of the rumours suggested anything but a top tier Intel gaming CPU wasn't great at high resolutions. Thanks.

Most games at 1440p are going to be largely CPU bound on a 3080, regardless of which brand or model of CPU.

As Intel still have a small advantage in gaming performance, this is thus allowed to show through a bit more than it would in a more GPU-bound scenario, such as 4K.

A 3700X won't really bottleneck any more than a 3900X or 3950X would as most games won't make any real use of the additional cores.
