Ryzen 5600x or used ryzen 3500x

I have the opertunity to upgrade my 2200g to a 3500x (used) for $120 canadian (currently have a gigabyte b450m ds3 with bois updated). But also just noticed that canada computers is selling the ryzen 5600x for $279.99($316 after tax) regularly 399.99. I was wondering what the better option would be. I will be pairing it with my gtx 1060 3gb( in the future i might get something a bit more powerfull used once prices drop). The only games I play are games like binding of isaac,  terraria, factorio, cities skylines also some esports games like overwatch and the odd  mmo. I just can't decide if the extra money is worth it in my situation.

Sorry if my grammer and spelling or wording is a little off I'm dyslexic and I had to re write this several times.

For just gaming, the 5600X will be about 15% faster. For a 1060 3GB, it won't really matter (maybe in City Skylines a bit). Both of them will be a large improvement over the 2200G, and personally I wouldn't spend the extra $200 for the 5600X.

unless you plan on starting to play much more demanding games, the 3500x is the better choice at that price point imo. even in more demanding games, it will do alright.

A 3500x will be a huge upgrade over your 2200g and should pair nicely with a mid grade gpu in the future.

Ty for the advice  I ended up picking up the 3500x.
