I'm happy that AMD really seems to be surging again. It was finally time for the ol' mobo+cpu+ram rebuild for me recently, and I ended up replacing my second generation core i5 2500k with a new Ryzen 5 and I could not be happier. The price was spot on compared to how much more I would have paid for an intel chip and board. I believe I got the Ryzen 5 2600, so one generation back from this 3600 I assume.
- Sileni 7y agoDid a 2600x / Vega 56 build recently, and I'm honestly impressed with the value. Total under $1k after tax. I would have spent that before getting a GPU if I had gone Intel.
- noir_lord 7y agoI went from a 2500K with HD6950 to a 2700X and a RTX2080. That was a slight jump. Yep the 2600 is Zen+, 3600 is Zen 2, decent uplift in IPC (about 10%) on its own not worth upgrading. That 3900X looks tempting though to replace my 2700X. 50% more faster cores than an already very fast processor, AMD are on fire at the moment.
