building new pc

Ryzen 5 7600x
arctic freezer 34 esports duo
b650m gaming riptide
16gb patriot viper venom 5600 cl40
rx 6700 xt

main question I'm posting is ryzen 5 7600x or 7600? both are same price.

and opinion on build, mostly motherboard if anyone uses it. All those components are barely in my budget.

in few months I'll get good case and arctic liquid ii 280mm aio

Definitely want lower latency ram. 16gb, in 2023 isn't a great idea, as games are becoming more demanding, along with the bloat windows seems to take on with updates. I would choose the 7600x, if the price is the same. Thermalright Assassin King is a nice cooler, and is cheaper.

CL36 works. Games benefit from lower latency.
that would be other option because i don't think it's worth 16gb 5600 cl36 for 100€ when it's for 25 more 32gb same speed, and I'm expecting this build to last 4-5 years at least probably just gpu upgrade in 2-3 years. Currently on 1080p 144hz but maybe I'll get 1440p 144hz when upgrading gpu nex time. btw thanks for opinions

little problem is I'm not from germany so I would need to bother friend for thermalright but I'll consider it since he will be sending pc, ordering on mindfactory.
in your opinion would Corsair vengence expo 5600 cl36 be close to that g skill, since it's 20€ cheaper and I'm already out of budget with 32gb

btw is thermalright peerless assassin better? it should be about same price and 2 fan 2 tower if I'm not mistaken.

Thermalright Peerless assassin is even better. Gamer's Nexus recently did a review on it. Ryzen likes low latency ram. With your 6700xt, though, it may not matter quite as much. Keep it in mind, though for future upgrades.

I was watching gamers nexus thermalright the other day. will give a look to this one too. thanks
in your opinion is it better to take now that slower 16gb and in a 4-5 months upgrade to something like you said 5600 cl30 or just take that 32gb 5600 cl36?
