What CPU would you use for a high end and a med end PC?

9800X3D.


9800X3D.

A time machine?
10800X3D (if it has the rumoured 12 cores).

wait, AMD stops at 9000, is there an incoming 10000 series coming? i thought amd had the 9950x3d at the top end?

Also Intel a no go for current cpu?

9950x3d Is at the top I miss typed.

10000 incoming no definite date yet.

Intel is still an option depending on workload .
 
Yep, if you're using it for professional use (and are dependent on processing time!) such as content creation then high end Intel may be slightly better, but if it's just gaming then 9800x3D is the best you can currently get.

Even if you do some content creation, but just for hobby/non-professional use, then 9800x3d will be more than enough.
At around the £300-350 mark there are more differences, but for £500 just get the 9800x3D, or if you want to spend more then 9950x3D is a monster! (I'm tempted to get one if I decide to upgrade, mainly because it feels wrong going to less cores than I have now, but my 5950x is doing fine and I'll probably wait until something breaks or if next gen AMD has 12 core CCDs - So 12c24t or 24c48t options)
