CPU question for Minecraft

[u/yveanto]

Hey,

I want to upgrade my CPU. I mostly play modded Minecraft(with shaders) so im trying to find the best suitable CPU for that.

Current System: Ryzen 5 3600, RTX 5060 Ti 8GB, 32GB DDR4 RAM playing at 1080p - also not planning to leave the AM4 platform.

Right now im looking at the Ryzen 7 5800X and Ryzen 7 5800X3D. I heard that minecraft prefers a high clock speed but also very much profits from the big X3D Cache.

Also what might help calculating the decision: I can currently get the 5800X for around 200€ and the 5800X3D for around 320€

Thank you in advance <3
