Will the 2600x be useful for years and years.

if i make a build with the 2600x, can it 'live' for years

 

thanks

Depends on what you're going to be doing with it in "years".

can it keep up with everything coming up in like 10 years?

Nobody has any way of knowing that.

 

 

Why are you buying a 2600x specifically?

We can't answer if it will keep up "years and years and years....10+ years".

The AMD FX-8150 can't even keep up at launch, it just crashed to the ground...basically.

The Intel 4th Gen series came out in 2014, and are still "decent", but is no contest compared to the 8th / 9th / 10th Gen Intel CPUs.

 

If you are going to build an AMD system, might as well grab a Ryzen 3600 and a B550 motherboard.

AMD is supposed to reveal more Ryzen 5000-series news on Nov.5th.

You could also go with the Ryzen 5600x + B500 motherboard path too.

Unless you get the 2600x for cheap, I'd grab a 3600 or 5600x, IMO.

 

If you take care of the system, regular maintenance, etc, it can last for years.

My single-core Athlon XP 1700+ still works....and that CPU came out in 2001...

i think i havent explained properly sorry

 

i wanted to know if it will keep up with games and applications for example, not the life of the cpu or when it will break

If you want to play...any of the current games, it should be fine.

 

How are we supposed to know in 2030...how the Ryzen 2600x performs in...Battlefield 12, or Grand Theft Auto 7?

New games will be more and more system demanding...that's to be expected.

If you can play BF5 on Ultra settings with a Ryzen 2600x, don't expect it can do Ultra settings in...BF12.
