Check this build I'd examine: 3600 at https://pcpartpicker.com/list/BkWDTC and 3700x at https://pcpartpicker.com/list/myFtRk

Have the additional coin, then take the 3700x.

Would the added performance justify the additional cost of $100?

A Vega 64 offers the same cost and speed as the 5700XT, unless you already own a Vega. In that case, maintaining it is sufficient.

Increasing clock speed and reducing voltage are techniques used to optimize performance and efficiency.

For pure gaming, opt for the 3600. Consider a TUF X570-PLUS instead of MSI's entry mid-tier boards—they're not worth it. You can find a good RM650x for what you'd pay for an RM750 (or cheaper), and 650W should suffice. You probably don't need a 750W unit. Assuming you already have the Vega 64, skip the upgrade unless you want it.

In gaming it might boost a few extra frames with the 3700x, otherwise it doesn't help for gaming.

It seems unnecessary to inquire further unless you clarify your needs, such as the purpose of the MSI X570 boards.

Some RXMX power supplies include an additional cable not found on the motherboard, wouldn't that be inconvenient? This would likely affect PCPartPicker's item selection.

I see your goal clearly. You aim to lower the voltage and boost the performance of the 64 to reach stock speeds of 5700xt while keeping costs the same. The fact that it already consumes about 75 fewer watts at full power is a helpful detail.
