2300x? Is that the oem part? If you can loom for a 1600af or even a 2600. that would be grades better than that. 

Im with the mentaility of "IF IM NOT SURE IF ITS ENOUGH COOLING, GO OVERKILL"

 

CURRENT PC SPECS

GPU             : ASUS RX 580 Dual OC (Formerly ASUS GTX 1060 but it got corroded for some odd reasons)

GPU COOOER      : ID Cooling Frostflow 120 VGA (Stock cooler overheats even when undervolted :()

MOBO            : MSI B350m Bazooka

MEMORY          Team Group Elite TUF DDR4 3600 Mhz CL 16
STORAGE         : Seagate Baracudda 1TB and Kingston SSD
PSU             : Thermaltake Lite power 550W (Gonna change soon as i dont trust this)
CASE            : Rakk Anyag Frost

A 1650S ain’t gonna cut it for 1440p 60 fps as much as I hate to say, you’ll be looking at minimum a 1660S, or RX 5700.

 Would be a good option

what's an OEM. 1600Af isnt available but 2600 does. im going to find 1600AF pretty rare here.

For 1080p a 1650S would be adequate, for 1440p minimum I could recommend as far as the used market goes would be a GTX 1070 or 1070 ti. A 1060 performs about the same as a 1650S.

OEM = Original Equipment Manufacturer.  A prebuilt, generally.


I’ve never heard of a 2300, but AMD will so specific chips for big companies like dell and give them special numbers.  There are also certain chips sold in certain places not everyone can get.  The 3500 is one example.  It’s a 3600 with smt turned off.  A 6/6 like the intel 9400.  It’s sold in some Asian countries but you can’t get them in North America or Europe.

 

i looked the thing up and there’s benchmarks and news:

https://www.tomshardware.com/news/amd-ryzen-3-2300x-oem-general-public. Apparently it used to be OEM but that is changing.

andandtech did a review as well.

https://www.anandtech.com/show/13945/the-amd-ryzen-5-2500x-and-ryzen-3-2300x-cpu-review

 

the thing is apparently 4/4 which would make it like an 8th gen i5 but slower. A good bit slower than a 2400g.  AMD quit making 14nm 1600s and switched to a 12nm process so any 1600 manufactured after a certain date is a 1600af.  They’re not marked any different than old 14nm 1600s.  The only way to tell is if the serial number ends in AF. (which is why they’re called that)

Not a pro, not even very good.  I’m just old and have time currently.  Assuming I know a lot about computers can be a mistake.

 

Life is like a bowl of chocolates: there are all these little crinkly paper cups everywhere.

so its 2300x okay? it 300mhz higher than 2200G with apparently same price here.

2300 according to what data I can see is 4/4 while the 2400g is 4/8.

This video may be pertinent for this. AMD is releasing new low end stuff.
