Perfect processor for mid-to-high end gaming computers. Most first time PC builders overestimate just how much CPU power they need and end up purchasing high end stuff that they likely don't need. This was a pretty good fit in between value and performance compared to the high end Ryzen stuff. Only con would be the price and how it doesn't drop even close to the 3600 non X during sales considering the only marginal performance difference.

Hard to get from anywhere but best buy has a decent price for it. You wont get that much of a performance difference vs something like the 3600. if a small bump in ghz clock speeds is worth the extra 50$ go for it. If you dont care then I would stick with the 3600 and save a few.

Decided to upgrade computer during COVID 19 quarantine. I found this processor cheaper elsewhere but Bestbuy.com price matched it with no hassle. Very noticeable upgrade glad I went with it.

Loving my 3600x. I paired it with the MSI B450 Tomahawk Max and it worked together perfectly out of the box, with no BIOS upgrade necessary.
The cooler on this is more than adequate for the CPU and temps have all been very good for an AMD chip.
It's fast as hell, too.
Super happy with this purchase. This chip is like the R9 390 of CPUs right now.

If you plan on oc, then get the 3600 but then recommend to get a better cpu cooler then the stock it comes with. If you don't want to oc then the 3600x is good for you,
