[SOLVED] Cpu upgrade

[reed hingst]

I’m looking to upgrade to a r5 3600 with my b450 motherboard, is this a good idea?

It is a good idea but what's your budget, what's your GPU and what resolution do you plan to play at. Also whats your current cpu

Not really thought about my budget, I have a 1660 super and I play 1080p, my current cpu is actually a r5 2600x

If you have a 2600x then buying a 3600 is so small a difference it's not worth the money.

Which B450 is it as it may need a BIOS update for a 3rd gen processer?

I'd wait for the 4000 series if I were you.

U w8 for 3000xt or 4000 series as ppl mentioned above if u want a an upgrade and u cant w8 u go for 3700x or 3800x depending on price but the performance isnt big in gaming from 3600 . So the best choice is to w8 for the new cpu's.
