Question Ryzen 7 5700x vs Ryzen 5 5600x - Which should I get for my gaming PC?

[martinceld]

I'm gonna be buying my rig soon. My GPU is gonna be a Gigabyte RX 6750 XT Gaming OC 12gb. I was originally going to get the Ryzen 5 5600x but I happen to check the price of the R7 5700x and the difference is only $20 in my region which is smaller than I expected. My main purpose for this PC is gaming. Any feedback on this would be great.

I would get the 5700X for the extra cores but you do loose 0.1 in speed.

A few months ago I was undecided on the 5700X, I switched to buying the 5800X3D(You need a better cooling system), you might think about it.
But yes, as the user said above, it goes to the processor with more cores.
