Hello! recently I asked about a new mobo+cpu to buy and I was told to save up for B450 Tomahawk max and Ryzen 5 3600 (I recently bought a CX450 and RX580 cause my 1050 was dead and my PSU was trash) however theres a new ryzen 5 3600XT CPU coming out and I wondered if I should wait for that? will it be good for my RX580? will one of them bottleneck/reach 100% usage in games or anything else? thank you!

well you could wait. they will not be that much better but it gives you some etxra performance

The 3600XT will be a binned 3600X meaning it will reach 100-200 MHz more. You can wait for it and then get the 3600 since the XT might cause the prices to lower a bit.

Okay great thank you all! :) I will wait until it drops to see if the prices for the regular 3600 go down a little
