CPU Dilemma

Hey! I recently built 2 complete computers with all the parts i have laying around, one of the two is a mini-itx in the Node 202 case and the other in a phanteks p300.

I have 2 cpus and 2 motherboards 

 

r5 2600 - r5 3600

MSI tomahawk b450 (bios flashed to support ryzen 3000) - Asrock b550m-itx/ac

 

First after putting both together i found out that 550 motherboards don`t support ryzen 2000

I could always just switch, but what do i lose in terms off performance?

is it worth buying a new cppu or mobo?

you basically don't loose any performance.

Definitely not.

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

The r5 2600 has 6 cores and 12 threads, just like the 5600X. Just the boost frequency is higher.

So just keep it.
