I only really notice stutters in heavily modded Minecraft, where it's clearly linked to the garbage collector. In more demanding games I don't notice any stuttering really. Or at least, none that I can't easily link to something triggering in the game that is likely causing it.

Sure, perhaps I have slightly lower average FPS compared to a 7800x3D, but I also use this PC for productivity reasons so there the extra oompf really does help. Still, 97% of a framerate that's already way higher than what my 144Hz monitors support is still well above what my monitors support. I don't think the performance difference is really noticeable, other than in certain benchmarks or if you try really hard to see them.

It's considerably faster than a 5800x3D though.
