If you don't want to wait, and it's for gaming, then the next best option is the more expensive 7950X3D.
If you don't mind a 10-20% drop in gaming performance @ 1080p, 5-10% less @ 1440p and less than 5% @ 4k then the 9700X is at a similar price point to the 7800X3D.
If it's for both gaming and multi-core workloads, then the 9700X does pick up some points as the 7800X3D is not the fastest at that sort of stuff as those usages don't take advantage of the 3D v-cache.
Here's a Gamers Nexus link to read more about their relative performance (there's a video in there too showing the same stuff)...

They will become available. PCS rely on their supplier/s to give them an expected date and, as with anything, they are estimates so subject to change

There's also unexpected/unpredicted supply chain shortages of X3D parts...

AMD X3D Processor Shortage 2024: Price Hikes and Limited Availability Of Most Popular Models
AMD is experiencing shortages in its X3D processor line, affecting the availability and pricing of the Ryzen 7 5800X3D model and 7800X3D. This eight-core CPUs, designed for the AM4 socket, has seen a sharp price increase and is unavailable in many retail stores, as reported on Pricewatch since...

Recent AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D price action suggests stock is running low ahead of a possible 9800X3D launch
Global stock levels hint AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D is coming out soon?
I too am waiting on this! Where do you find the information that states the delay?

Go to your config, change the processor to the 7800X3D and press 'Proceed'...then a pop-up will tell you the ETA...
got it, thank you!
At this point, with the rumour mill chundering, I would hold out for the 9800X3D. If the rumours are true, it'll be very special. Even if they are not, there should be a better availability of the remaining 7800X3Ds by that point.
The 7800X3D is the best thing since sliced bread and I wouldn't buy one right now. I genuinely think there's a new king in town and the shoes won't be close to fitting. AMD need something special and they know it, they're rolling the dice IMO.

I would 100% be waiting for the 9000X3D CPU's at this point, I would also be holding out for the 5000 series RTX GPU's.
It's not a good time to be buying last gen, right at the end of the cycle, you pay far more for lesser performance.

The problem is, which CPU do you go for...especially with the 9000X3D CPU rumoured to be coming at the end of the month (which possibly explains the constant delays of the older 7800X3D)
tbh it's not like I'm some extreme gamer, I was just leaning towards 7800X3D bc it was the best gaming CPU on the market hahaThe problem is, which CPU do you go for...especially with the 9000X3D CPU rumoured to be coming at the end of the month (which possibly explains the constant delays of the older 7800X3D)

Well, the 9700X is right between the 7700X and 7800X3D for gaming performance, but is more efficient than both...but at the same price as the 7800X3D (the 9800X3D will probably also be at a premium price at launch).
The average performance between the 3 is about 20% - with the 9700X being about 10% above the 7700X and 10% below the 7800X3D. Of course in some games/resolutions the difference between the 7700 and 9700 is less than 5% and the 7800X3D is 25% faster...but you'd have to go into individual benchmarks for that level of detail.
yeah at this point im prepared to wait for the 9800x3d. i think availability will around 7th nov and as for pricing iv heard it wont be much more than the 7800x3d is now. think around $400 - $500 ? not sure how accurate this information is though. im assuming this will over take the 7800x3d in performance and become the best cpu for gaming ?

Yes, that's the plan...although the 'leaks' I've seen are only showing a 0-15% gaming performance increase at 1080p
...but we won't know for sure until all the tech channels have there own samples to test with.

Is that the leaked, pre-announcement, non-announcement, announcement?
And it went from 20/11/24 to I think end of January 2025. Is it due to people ordering systems and being able to nab the CPUs as they come in, delaying the "anyone else can use this in their system order" possibility? The stock coming in has been pushed back at least 3 times now so is it PC Specialist are not able to get them in or old orders are snapping them up as they do?
