So as the title suggests I can get a free Ryzen 1700 or buy a new Ryzen 3600. Im not so worried about spending the the money on the 3600 as much as i just do not wanna spend it if there is not a huge diff. in performance. soo any thoughts? should i just buy the 3600 since the cores are much faster or will there be a min. performance diiff and should go with a free new 1700? Thanx in advance!

I’m still quite satisfied with my Ryzen 7 1700, though I do see it limiting my graphics in some games. If you’re getting a B550 or X570 board, you might want to consider upgrading to the free Ryzen 7 now and switch once the Ryzen 4000 is released (assuming you’re not happy with the 1700 performance).

Check the comparison between AMD Ryzen 7 1700 and AMD Ryzen 5 3600 on CPU user benchmark sites.

For 1440p or 4K displays, spending more on a graphics card makes sense. When targeting 1080p, the 3600 offers the better option.

I can only say that free is free—go for it since it's worth it. And if you're not interested, just send it my way; I'm sure I'd make the most of it.

The 1700 performance would likely have been on par without the influence of gaming.

Get both options—free is free, but you’ll still feel the urge to buy a chip. Next, make a video comparison and present it to Linus in person. Good luck!
