In cache-sensitive games like Counter-Strike 2 and Assetto Corsa Competizione, it can match or beat chips like the Core Ultra 9 285K. However, real-world gaming at 1440p/4K is typically GPU-bound, making the CPU gap even smaller than benchmarks suggest. The author upgraded to the 9800X3D only for high-framerate competitive gaming on a 360Hz monitor, and argues most users gaming at 1440p/4K on 144Hz displays won't benefit enough from a newer X3D CPU to justify the cost. AMD's re-release as an Anniversary Edition in 2026 underscores the chip's continued relevance for AM4 users. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
