Depending on how old your CPU is, you may also need a new motherboard. I wouldn't suggest getting the ryzen 5 2600. A 10400f would be much better suited.

Hi there. Just took a look at this processor and it seems pretty solid for the price. With the 6 cores and 12 threads (and if you wanted to boost) it should be the perfect CPU for gaming. If you are looking to future proof the CPU you may want to go for a bit of a higher price range, however for games at the moment that is really quite solid!

(Although I am a fan of intel 😂)

I already Bought Motheboard. This one . Just want to make some solid pc for gaming. Nothing special. Not sure about boosting. Maybe after couple years when it gets old.
So for that price isnt bad? I mean I will look more for sure but for now I think that one is pretty good.
