4500 is indeed greater than 3500, and 3600 multiplied by any number is still larger than 4500.
For real performance it should be 4500 below 3500 and above 3600X, which means 4500 would be a better choice compared to just 3500 without considering cache. Just buying something with no cache might not be worth it since you could waste time trying to futureproof and end up with the best possible RAM speed.
3600X is impressive! The range you mentioned shows solid performance, around 3.8 to 4.4 with a slight improvement to 4.6.
I'm facing a serious issue with my setup. The 5900X/RTX3060ti is down, and it seems Asus didn’t properly test or certify the board for gaming RAM from a top manufacturer. I’m already frustrated about having to pay for warranty service and worrying about repair costs. If they push back on repairs, I’ll just move the board out of the way. I don’t play games that involve hassle.
I’ve been thinking about downgrading to something more stable for casual use—maybe a Ryzen with a GTX1650 and decent RAM. I’m also considering selling my current board if I upgrade it later. The recent warranty process took over 30 days, which is really annoying. It’s time to rethink this investment.
Only a R5 3600 here! Really insecure! Don’t get another one then! No, keep it and record gameplay videos with on-screen text. After all, it’s your money—how you spend it is up to you.
I have some concerns about a fee being charged for shipping labels to secure a negotiated shipping rate for warranty repairs. It seems unfair to pay extra just to get the shipping processed, especially if a lower-cost option like Priority Mail would work better. Charging this should never be part of resolving product issues. Edited July 21, 2022 by An0maly_76 Updated with more info
