Guys I have 4690k cpu and I want to upgrade it because I wanna be able to play read dead redemption 2 on my pc smoothly..I have 1080p monitor.. What do you recommend?
I was looking at ryzen 5 3600
 
The requirements are actually quite modest.

The recommended processor level is 4770K or ryzen 1500X
I suspect your 4690K will actually do quite well, particularly of you have overclocked the processor.
I would try with what you have first and see how you do.
If need be, a I7-4790K sells for $200 on ebay.

Anything more modern like a ryzen 3000 or intel 9th gen processor is also going to require a new motherboard and ddr4 ram.
