Is it worth to go for a ryzen 2600x instead of a 3600 with my b450 tomahawk?I wouldnt do this but maybe its better to be safe than sorry.Whats your opinion?

If it was my choice I would run what you have for a while longer and let whatever BIOS issue you're talking about work itself out.

The 3600 is hands down a better CPU than the 2600x...that's not to say there's anything wrong with the 2600x, it's a fine CPU, but the 3600 brings better memory support and simply performs at a higher level in every aspect.

2600x is terrific value at the prices they've dropped to and they'll remain a great gaming CPU for a while yet. But if you can swing the 3600 it's just that much better, especially since it's 1% lows performance makes it smoother in CPU-bound gaming scenarios. But that kind of depends on whether you do the kind of 'twitch' gaming that matters for.
