I am buying a 9900X. The 9900X3D is more expensive and makes no difference to the wok I do which is 3D animation rather than gaming.
they're more impacted by memory speed than the X3D CPUs, though if you're using the memory then capacity is better than speed. A lot of the cheaper kits available now are JEDEC kits that don't use XMP/EXPO.
