I used to be among those who thought X3D chips might be a bit overhyped but consider me humbled. I bought this 7800X3D chip to replace my 7700X that I was going to put into my wifes rig.
I did not expect much as I was buying a chip within the same generation and one step up but this was on big sale so I picked up to give it a shot. Well worth it.
Seriously this chip is a powerhouse, if you are a gamer this is THE ONLY chip you should buy. It has great thermal performance, gaming performance is great when paired with my 7900XT. I went from 120-140 fps in games like Hunt Showdown which are CPU heavy to a constant 170+
I never expected such a bump in performance especially considering it runs at around 5ghz versus the 5650mhz my 7700x could reach. I'm sure the lower clocks may have an effect on some production benchmarks that push all cores but as I said if you primarily game, consider no other chip.
