Ryzen 5 3500 vs 2600 for 1650 super

[zizeck]

I'm building a entry level gaming pc. My budget is quite tight so I can't afford 3600. I've chosen 1650 super as my GPU can't go higher than this. Also i'll take an entry level b450 motherboard (GIGABYTE AMD B450M DS3H ULTRA DURABLE RGB MOTHERBOARD)  and 16 gb RAM. BUT i'm in doubt in CPU, should I take Ryzen 5 2600 or 3500?? What kind of performance gap will I get in this combination? IF 3500 is better, then does it worth the extra 30$ (in local market) or should i spend that money on a better motherboard?

The 3500 is better in single threaded but 2600 has better multithreaded, so what games do you play most?

Neither Cpu will never bottle neck a 1650. Get whatever you want.

Rainbow 6 will scale with a lot of cores, but if you have a lot of variety in your game library, the 3500 would come out ahead in the most games

Nah, 6 cores only, no SMT. 

Your graphics quality will be limited to the GPU a lot more so than the Cpu.

Get the 2600.

with a 1650su-1660 lvl graphics card, you won't notice much of a difference

Seeing a build has never made me feel this rich.  I'm over here throwing the budget out the window and this guy is struggling to get a decent 1080p machine for a small price.
