[SOLVED] Best option for used component system build?

[drummr8]

I am still running my old i5 2500k build from 10 years ago. I'd like to upgrade but I don't need anything crazy. I will play some games but I don't need to run at ultra settings or anything. Is there a top-of-the-line setup from maybe 2019 or so that I could pickup fairly cheap? I just need a Mobo, CPU, and ram. I have a decent graphics card and prices are ridiculous right now.

You could look for even one of today's 11400F or 10600 combos on a B560 board, some of which are priced quite reasonably...

(Unless you can find some sort of killer deal on a 9700K w/cooler/Z390 board to make it worthwhile to choose from 2-2.5 years earlier...)

A B450 board and a Ryzen 3600 make a nice gaming machine
