Just to expand on this:

 

AM4 (the socket used for the 2600) is officially supported until late next year and probably longer. This means that the next generation and possible generation after will be supported by the same motherboard.

 

The Ryzen processors are awesome, and super bang for your buck in terms of productivity and gaming performance compared to the counterpart

Just the 2600, you can overclock easily if you need the extra firepower
