I am confused choosing cpu to build 4k video editing pc . Both ryzen7 2700x and ryzen5 3600x are on the same price in india. I just want to edit 4k footage smoothly. Which one would be best? Please let me know.

The 3600x has better multi-core and single core performance. So that'll be your best option.
