Ryzen 3 1200 vs?
In Ryzen lineup?

I'd say the Ryzen 5 1600x would definitely be better 😂

2700 vs 3600 Benchmark benchmarks between the 2 and the 3600 seems better, I'd probably go for that imo. Somewhat depends on what you do but in general 3600 imo.

Between those two CPUs I'd choose the dog.

Depends on what you want to do, do you really require the extra cores, or would you rather have the newer architecture and higher frequency, also have heard the 2700x has cooling issues?

Personally on price point, if they are similar prices, I'd go for the 2700x, less need to upgrade in the next 2 years, as more programs become more multi-core intensive, also will be better for the long run.
Also 2700x has better base frequency, so more cycles per second, theoretically better.

Edit: Didn't know the 2700x was down to around 4k.
That's a steal at that price!

I don't recall him mentioning a 2700x, are you referring to the 2700 for 4k?

Oh ok

 

[M@tree2]

Oh ok

Would be pointless buying the 2700 for this price difference, hence I went 2700x.

Fair, only thing is they don't deliver during lockdown, also currently out of stock of the processor but for the price yeah great deal
