"Spending more on a gaming CPU is often pointless"
Facepalm: It's fair to say that the UserBenchmark website does not have the best reputation among PC hardware fans. It seems to have a particular dislike of AMD, as illustrated by the recent review of the Ryzen 7 9800X3D. The CPU has been so successful that it's sold out in most places, but UserBenchmark claims this is merely the result of AMD's aggressive marketing rather than real-world performance, and suggests that you buy an Intel i5-13600K instead.
