CPU Upgrade. Should I upgrade my Motherboard??

[Maxisthemoose]

So right now I have a Ryzen 5 1600x, and, don't get me wrong, it's a great CPU but I just feel like its time to upgrade it. Right now I am planing on getting a Ryzen 5 3600. I was just wondering if it was worth it to also upgrade the Motherboard to a current gen also. I wont be changing anything else OTHER than the CPU! Thanks for the advice in advance!

is this your current motherboard? Asus ROG Strix B450-F Gaming

if yes, it will work fine with the 3600, just upgrade bios before.

all new 3600 builds recommend b450 boards, the x570 are too expensive if you don't need their features and it doesn't make sense to spend more on the motherboard than on the cpu

Alright thank you. I also cant seem to find how to edit the Signature. How would I do that?
