How long should keep 2600X

AYDANN6ix9ine · January 7, 2019

So I have a Ryzen 5 2600X that runs stable at all core OC of 4.1ghz. It has 6 cores and 12 threads with Zen+ Architecture (Ryzen Gen 2). Should this CPU run pretty well for games and casual 1080p video editing for at least 2 1/2 years. Maybe 3? Thanks.

as long as you feel it's doing what you want. that can be 3 years, that can be 8, that can untill it dies.

Yes, for sure it will run even the most demanding games well for 3 years. Maybe longer even. Great CPU, enjoy it.

Your set for couple years... 2 to 3. You probably will need to upgrade video card before you upgrade cpu ya know.
