Upgrading CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D vs 9 9900X3D
Hello. I'm planning to upgrade my CPU and have narrowed down my choices between a Ryzen 7 9800X3D and Ryzen 9 9900X3D, since I've seen people here recommend against getting a 9950 due to power and heat increase.
To my understanding, the CPU cache size is very important in paradox games, and the difference between these two is as such:
AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D - 96 MB
AMD Ryzen 9 9900X3D - 128 MB
While both have the same TDP.
The 9900 has more cores but as far as paradox games go, I'm told that's irrelevant, and when I watched benchmark videos on other games, the fps difference is minimal, and not worth the price hike IMO, so I'm only concerned about how well they'll run paradox titles.
I'm no tech whizz. Is the cache difference substantial for performance?
