I am looking at building a new PC - I have been out of the game of keeping pace with all the new product releases and which have features over the others. So with that said I was looking at using the AMD Ryzen 5 3600 for the new build. Currently I am running an i7 4790k and it's feeling a bit tired. So my question is with this CPU (Ryzen 5 3600) what chipset would be benefit me the most, it'll be a mild budget build so my goal isn't to go extremely cheap here. 

 

Thanks guys!

If you're buying now, B450 if you're on a tighter budget, X570 if you have the extra cash and would like the option to upgrade to a 3950X or Ryzen 4000 in the future.

If you're buying in a month and a bit, B550.
