Hi again!

Currently on an i7-4771 + 1060 6GB and looking to upgrade around black friday. Here's what I'm thinking:

Note that I already have a case, PSU and storage. My plan is to get an M.2 drive further down the line but I'll live with my SATA SSDs for now. 

Is this a good pick? Would it be stupid to go for a 5700 (if it drops a lot in price) or a 2060s instead and buy an M.2 right away?

You won't notice a difference between SATA and PCIe M.2 drives when gaming is your main concern.

Anyway, the 3600 and 5700XT is a great combo and will be a big upgrade.

Thanks for your insight! On the other hand, would a 3600 and 5700XT be overkill for 1080p144hz? I'm not planning to upgrade my display anytime soon but would like to be able to use the setup for a good few years ideally.

Overkill? No. Many AAA games will still not run at maxed 144 FPS.

Well there we go. I'll go ahead and put up a few watchlists for the stuff above then. Thanks a bunch!

Here, the X is like $30-40 more than the non-x and, as I understand it, the main difference is the included cooler and a slightly higher factory clock. Afaik, they're functionally the same processor.

I would not go for it, for that price
