Hi I'm looking to upgrad my cpu, ram and motherbored I'm running a fx 8350 at the moment and a 1660 super  I am trying to decied weather to get a 3600 or a 5600x idealy I will be upgrading  my graphics card end of the year and I'm hoping to be gaming at 1440p. 

Since your playing at 1440p, I would get the 3600 (when it's at or below msrp) and then spend that money you saved on a GPU

A 5600x would be alot more powerful than a 3600 assuming you could find one in stock.

I will recommend an NHu12s (or an NHd15 (maybe)) for your PC build. Quote or @ me @Prodigy_Smit for me to see your replies.

I agree especially if it's 3440x1440 or some other higher end 1440P variant since then performance becomes very GPU dependent.  

I will say I run a 5600X on my console system on a 240Hz 1080P monitor and in my main system I run a 5900X but use that to stream
