I also had an 8-core setup, but the 1800x wasn’t ideal for gaming either—it handled 60 FPS well, but a 144Hz display required more power. The 3600 should definitely meet my needs, since I mainly play esports and will have new updates soon.
You're running at 2700x resolution with an RTX 2080 on a 1080p, 240Hz display. That's a solid setup for gaming and streaming on a single PC—just make sure your system isn't overloaded. You're good to go unless you hit performance limits.
Jedibrysen Debauer created a video highlighting the current limitations of the new 3000s, noting minimal overclocking potential and struggles with advertised boost speeds. Most components ran between 4.2-4.3ghz across all cores at 1.45v manually. Even with advanced settings like ln2, performance remained modest.
Hey there! What's up? Just checking in—unless you're asking for a joke, I'm here to help! 😄
I’m just trying to avoid losing two cores. I was hoping for those specific ones since I can’t pay for the 3900x or 3800x, and I was only seeking advice.
