What’s your thought on choosing X870 over B850?

Personally I would rather spend that money to upgrade the PSU to a 1000W

7800X3D or 9800X3D over the Ryzen 7900

aside from the igpu, the improvements of those CPUs seems minimal - he’s probably not going to be gaming much honestly… but he wants it to be capable
