??? The X3Ds are the best gaming CPUs.

Budget? Current CPU? Games played? Any productivity?

You need to provide way more info.

Did you read the question?

Current set up is there, AMD preference is there, I said I'm NOT spnending £350 on an X3D so fair to assume budget is south of that right?, and I said ASSUME A WIDE RANGE OF GAMES - it's all there...

Did I mention productivity? No, and I specified GAMING CPU.

You haven't provided your current CPU though, so we don't even know what platform to work with.

Also, why act so aggressively to a perfectly reasonable post asking questions? I mean you asked for the best AMD gaming CPU and then ruled out the best AMD gaming CPU.
 
Assume a wide range of games, best overall and best bang for buck options.

The 7800X3D OEM CPUs can be had for under £200 delivered in the UK if you shop around.

If you want a retail CPU,the options are:
1.)Ryzen 7 7700/7700X for £200 to £250
2.)Ryzen 5 7600/9600 for around £150 to £170
3.)Ryzen 7 7400 for about £130. This is Ryzen 5 7600 with half the L3 cache.

In terms of bang for back,the OEM 7800X3D is the best,but it has a short warranty.

If you want something to tide you over,the Ryzen 5 7600 probably is the best value. The 7700/7700X/7800X3D are 8 core CPUs and the rest six cores,but hopefully Zen6 will slot into current AM5 motherboards.
