Posted May 1, 2020 So I've been looking around and seeing that the overall gaming performance for 1080, and 1440p isn't Massive between the 3600 and the 3700x. I don't play an insane amount of games that are insanely intensive, currently my most intensive addiction has to be ARK: Survival Evolved. For the 130 ish dollars in savings, would this CPU still be fine to game and stream at 1080P? I'll be using 32GB of dd4-3200 ram and a RX5700 XT Sapphire Nitro+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted May 1, 2020 The fast answer = yes. Nice thing about AM4, upgrade to 4000 series later. Get the 3600. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be using 32GB of dd4-3200 ram and a RX5700 XT Sapphire Nitro+ Both are totally fine streaming, but 1440p the 3700x might fare better in more heavily-threaded games, but usually the GPU matters the most for gaming, by a lot, so I wouldn't be concerned.

If you have the $$ to spare and then some get the better one if you are looking for a good price for your hardware then go for the 3600 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted May 1, 2020 1 minute ago, Brok3n But who cares? said: wait the 4000 series is still going to be am4? I thought It would be am5 since 3rd gen was the last promised year for am4 misinformed. AMD never claimed that. And it' s pretty much common knowledge, that 4000 series will be AM4 compatible.. Life is really challenging. I don't always suceed: ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted May 1, 2020 Author Wicked! Thanks guys, I don't plan on a lot of 1440p, that would be more so to just see how it performs. I originally was going for the 3700x, but seeing the videos and these comments makes me aware, i'll be fine coming from my 4790 and 1050 ti Haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
