Interested in good framerates for 1080p 144hz gaming. Don't play many super demanding triple A games.

- Thinking about dropping the R5 3600 for the 1600 AF to save $90 (bringing the total to ~$830). Would I notice a decrease in performance at all?
- Also, I'm having trouble locating the B450 TOMAHAWK MAX in stock or for a reasonable price (it's currently $200 at NewEgg). What would be a good, comparable alternative? If I go for the 1600 AF, thinking about getting a refurbished B450 TOMAHAWK (non-MAX) on Ebay for $70 to save even more money.
- Any good recommendations for case fans? Believe I need two more for the H510.
