You're considering upgrading your current FX6300 with a new processor. Given your plans for video, audio editing, Photoshop, gaming, and the ASRock B450 ATX board, both Ryzen 2700X and 3600X are strong contenders. The choice depends on your specific workloads and budget. The Ryzen 3600X offers better multi-core performance for demanding tasks like video editing and gaming, while the 2700X provides a more balanced performance with slightly lower power consumption. Make sure to check compatibility with your existing components and consider future scalability.

The 3600 offers advantages over the 2700 in gaming, Photoshop, and After Effects. Are there other programs you intend to try?

I'll be utilizing the Adobe tools and have Plex installed on my computer.

I receive the 3600 units excluding the x variant. The x model costs just $10 extra, so purchase it only if the price difference does not exceed $10.

I own machines that perform similarly, though the 3600 offers a slight edge. The motherboard and other components seem okay. The graphics card is where things get tricky. The 1060 works well, but I recommend checking Craigslist first. I purchased a 2080 (fully working) for the same cost as a brand new 1030. Give it a try!
