Customer Review
- Reviewed in Canada on May 1, 2025I built my new computer and went with the 9700x. While this CPU has received not the best reviews it's a great CPU. When it comes to gaming the 9700X3D is king followed by the 7800X3D. However, in Canada the prices are so inflated that it ain't worth the additional $150 for the 7800X3D unless you really have money to spend or play competitive.
I paired this beauty with an 840P Mainboard that I got on sale for $177. It's a good combo. It has no issues supporting 48GB of 6000Mhz Ram running consistently at 6000 MHz.
I'm using my computer for work and gaming. The 9700x is a fast CPU for all sorts of productivity like coding, processing, editing and office work. Gaming performance is great. Paired with RTX 5070 this makes it a great combo. A much faster GPU might lead to bottleneck, but if you pay $2000 for a GPU I'm sure you can afford a better CPU too.
I usually prefer Intel and prices for a 14700KF or 265KF Ultra are somewhat similar to the AMD. AMD Mainboards are easily $50-100 cheaper. On top Intel's 14xxx series has up to this day issues with overheating. Compared to the Ryzen 9700X whose performance is slightly below the 14700k it runs very cool and is extremely power efficient. AMD also added two new modes 95W and 105W power mode can be selected in BIOS. AMD extended warranty for higher Watt modes which is very consumer friendly. I went with the 105W for now and paired with a Peerless Assassin 120 it runs at max 75 degrees while gaming.
I'm very satisfied with the 9700X. I'm usually an Intel user but AMD delivered here. For someone who had a i5 10600k before it's a big upgrade. An upgrade from a Ryzen 7700x or Intel's 13th gen seems unnecessary as the performance gains are marginal.
I understand the X3D hype but the X3D CPUs are consistently slower in productivity yet excel in gaming performance. With overclocking and fast RAM the 9700X gets pretty much the same performance as the 7800X3D for less money.
I'm extremely satisfied with my purchase and the 9700X offers excellent value for money and strikes the perfect balance between gaming and productivity performance.
