[SOLVED] Im planning on buying Ryzen 5 3600.I have a couple questions

[lordofthenecklaces]

I got enough budget for 3600x and 3600xt aswell.I was hoping you could inform me about the fps difference between the 3 at stock speeds.(I dont like overclocking).And also is the stock cooler good enough for stock speeds on all 3?

3600 - base 3.6, boost 4.2
3600x - base 3.8, boost 4.4
3600Xt - base 3.8, boost 4.5

this article might help with fps differences - https://premiumbuilds.com/cpus/ryzen-5-3600-vs-3600xt/

very little difference between last 2, probably not worth the money for xt (even though I have one)

I think spire can work with all 3 as that is what comes with the XT and I doubt AMD give it away with CPU if it wasn't good enough.

Just get an i5 its cheaper and better than all of them for gaming, plus good multithreaded core performance and easier to overclock.
As for your question on the 3600 vs 3600x and xt, my understanding of adding an x on the end is that you can just overclock the CPU higher (and I think it will be factory overclocked as well), and so if you aren't going to overclock it in the first place, its not worth buying. Also I would assume the stock fan is fine on AMD products, however just get a hyper 212 for it, as it is really cheap and has thousands of reviews

If you´re not overclocking and you will only do gaming then the stock cooler is fine. And about the fps difference, here´s a video

Personally i would go for the 3600, it´s not woth it to spend more money for less than 10 or so fps
