Is the 7800X3D still worth it for a new gaming build?

Yes, if gaming is the priority. Its cache keeps it among the fastest gaming CPUs, and the AM5 socket leaves room for a later upgrade.

Do I need a graphics card with this bundle?

For gaming, yes. The chip has basic Radeon integrated graphics for display output and troubleshooting, but it is not for playing modern games.

What memory should I pair with it?

DDR5 in a dual-channel kit. AMD EXPO kits around 6000 MHz are the usual choice and are widely reported to work well with this chip.

Is the Gigabyte B850 board good enough for this CPU?

Yes. B850 covers the 7800X3D's needs with DDR5, PCIe 5.0 and Wi-Fi; check the specific board's ports and M.2 slots against your parts.

How does it compare with the Ryzen 7 9700X?

The 7800X3D is generally faster in games thanks to its cache, while the 9700X is newer and more efficient. For pure gaming, the 7800X3D is the safer pick.

Does it come with a cooler?

The 7800X3D ships without a stock cooler, so plan on an aftermarket air or liquid cooler. A mid-range tower cooler is enough for its 120W TDP.
