It's mostly for an upgrade, I'm still rocking a 3700X, I'm looking to build a new rig around my 4080 that'll last me several years before I decide I want to build another one.
I don't play the latest releases all that often, mostly because my CPU struggles with them, and other than some video editing I don't really do anything all that intensive outside of gaming.
I would only get the high end Zen 5 X3D variants if they have the cache on both CCDs. AFAIK, gaming performance can actually be worse when one CCD has the X3D cache and the other one doesn't (like in 7950X3D).
To my knowledge this hasn't been confirmed yet.
This is assuming money is not an issue, otherwise definitely just save the cash. You should be more than fine even for CPU intensive games (city-builder, transport simulation, tycoons).
