Hey everyone.
I'm torn between a Ryzen 5 3600X and a Ryzen 5 5600X. Which one do you guys recommend? 5600X is the max I can stretch my budget for. It costs 410 USD in my region. I'm open to other options in that price range.
Do I need a B550 or better chipset or will a B450 be sufficient? I understand that B550 has PCIe 4.0 lanes but are they really worth it? I'd be sticking to a single NVMe SSD and a SATA III HDD. As of now I don't see myself getting any expansion cards. Maybe a Wi-Fi 6 card when they are mainstream.
I have a GTX 1070Ti which I plan to retain. Right now my CPU is the bottleneck and I'd like to see if upgrading that will yield decent results. I do want the motherboard to permit a worthy upgrade in the future.
I have an Antec Earthwatts Pro 650W Gold PSU, I'm hoping that'll be good enough.
I use Rhinoceros 3D and Grasshopper. For rendering I use Keyshot. I game at 1080p but will most likely upgrade to 4K in a year.
