How well does the Ryzen 3600 fare with videogames...

How well does the Ryzen 3600 fare with videogames? I plan to upgrade from my aging FX6300 and want to know if it will be equivalent to the PS4 / Xbox One architectures or if I should go with Intel.

Thanks in advance for your answers.

Oh, also, If Ryzen isn't good, which one is its Intel equivalent?

Yes 3600 is overkill for 99% of all games.

cross ange sucks tusk and the maid are based tho

3600 is more than enough for anything current gen (to the extent that actual budget builds go for lower end CPUs like 3300X), unless you are looking to push ultra high fps.

It's not discussed as much as MUH TERAFLOPS and SSD, but nextgen consoles will have a massive CPU performance jump compared to current ones. 3600 will probably still be good enough for 60fps gaming for years, but you might want to look into futureproofing and/or wait to see how nextgen stuff actually shakes out after release.

It's funny that the CPUs in new consoles are probably the most important upgrade compared to PS4 and X1, but since they're not something unique and that's very expensive or "unattainable" on PC, they're completely ignored in favor of
>SUPER ULTRA FAST SSD
and
>2080Ti PERFORMANCE FOR $400*
*on paper in TFLOPS

What about the PS5 / Xbox whatever? Will the 3600 be enough for 60 fps?

Right now 3600 is overkill for most games, you're more likely to be limited by your gpu first. If you're asking because you're thinking of building a new system then it's a safe bet that will last you into the next gen. If you're upgrading it might be worth waiting for whatever comes after the am 4 slot, though you'll still be fine with buying a 3600 now anyway.

post gpu retard

When I was building my rig. Had the option of the 3600 and the 2700, ended picking up the 2700 for the higher amount of cores that are useful for my professional field, while still being a good gaming processor, I also came from a FX6300, so a 3600 will be a fantastic choice for games, you will be bottlenecks day GPU before the CPU becomes a problem.

The ones in green will the the new parts; the rest are the parts I already have.
I know the GPU will bottleneck in a couple years and will be replaced later; I want to know if the processor will fare well during the PS5 era.

>1060 3gb
lol what a retard, just go for ryzen 3100 or i3 10100

RAM speed doesn't match
>1060 3g
3g is not enough
Not a Fractal Design case

AMD is the best value for CPUs right now, and you'll get a massive performance increase from the fx 6300. A 3600 will handle pretty much anything you care to throw at it.

I plan to replace the GPU later; I just want to build something that will work well during the next console gen.

What do you mean by the RAM speed not mat- Nevermind, I see it. Fixed.

Also, you should buy a SSD to put your OS on, it makes a huge difference.

Not interested; SSDs burn after a few years of use so I'll rather have something slow that I don't have to change after a couple years. Especially given how I play games protected with Denuvo.

That's a fucking meme.

>SSDs burn after a few years of use
LOL. No.

Next time don't get a dramless SSD.

Consoles have their CPUs clocked lower than the desktop ones and most games will use the SMT off mode for better single core performance.

Here's the deal, nexgen consoles will have 8 zen2 cores (but at a somewhat lower performance than desktop Ryzen 3000-series parts). 3600 will EXTREMELY LIKELY last you for 60 fps gaming throughout the next console gen, or at least until mid-gen spec bumps happen. But technically you are still going to be 2 cores short compared to consoles, this makes it harder to predict how this gen is gonna play out with certainty.


I'll also second recommendation to get an SSD, it's literally the most experience-changing thing to happen to PCs during last decade. Don't get a bitch-ass 128GB one, too, get 500GB minimum that would actually fit your system and currently played games.

You already know that your system is going to be hella bottlenecked by GPU.

You'd want memory that preferably runs at 3600MTs with reasonable timings, I'm not sure if your specific one does, typical budget choice is crucial ballistix kits.


Look up gamersnexus on youtube for general information, they do some of the more well-researched, but still easily digestible reviews, and they had a budget build guide recently.

I've been using my current SSD for 5 years. Pic related.

Any expectations or ideas on how a 3700x may fare? I'm thinking of picking one up since they've gotten decently cheap by now.

You want the 3700

that was true maybe for the very first ssd gen, do yourself a favor and buy at least at 256gb SSD for the OS

You are going to chuck your modern SSD in an external box and use it as a backup/porn stash/thumbdrive because it's old way before it's worn out. Modern ones spread wear well enough, and obvoiusly you get more endurance the larger your drive capacity is.

I use my computer like 14 hrs a day for both work and games, and my current drive should last about 80 years before reaching rated TBW threshhold.

It's great, however your GPU is more important for games, as a rule of thumb make sure you GPU cost 50% or more than your whole computer.

You will kill yourself before the age of 30.

You're living under a rock my friend, that's why you need to post in the /g/ thread and be called a retard, you're going to fuck up your build at this rate.

I have a 2600x and it doesn't seem to be bottlenecking me any. I'd say a 3700x would be good for a decently long time.

That's what I got, partly on the idea that it's going to be strictly superior to console CPUs.
One hidden benefit is that the stock cooler is actually serviceable enough (it's the same wraith prism they use for R9 3900x) so you don't have to buy another one if you don't want to.

If I were on yours shoes, I'd so the following:
>Wait for Zen3 real performance tests
>If the 4600 is as good as the 3600 at similar price, go for that 100%
>If it's not, then look for the most sensible alternative, either way Zen3 will cover you much better since it will be more future proof
>Don't spend too much on the GPU, we'll probably get a "killer card" in around 2 years, 1st gen won't be like that
The CPU is the heart of your system, never go cheap with it and you'll don't even think of upgrading it for years.
