Right time to buy or wait?

Heya, atm got a setup waiting for the last part, which is the CPU. The question is, i could get the 9800x3d urrently for 569 euros or 7800x3d for for 512. Would this be a good time to get 1 of these (leaning towards 9800x3d with this price gap) or wait a bit for hopefully more of a price drop? Also a question regarding the am5 thermal grizzly contact sealing frames, are these worth getting or just an extra nice to have but not really needed? (Using corsair h150 elite cooler with rog strix b650e-f motherboard).
