I'm unsure if upgrading from your Intel i9 9900k to an AMD 5600x is a good idea. Have you tried comparing the options? Your current setup includes an Intel i9-9900k Z370 MSI tomahawk with 32 GB RAM and Corsair Vengeance RGB PRO.

It varies by game selection. Could you share which titles you enjoy? Also, what is the current rating and specifications of your Corsair RAM?

Pure gaming wins most matches, though editing and streaming at 5800x works well too.

I really question if it's a good plan. After all, Zen 3 seems like it could be the final generation for the AM4 board, possibly moving to DDR5.

The improvement likely isn't worth sacrificing two cores and a new motherboard.

I enjoy various games in different categories. Here’s a brief list: World of Warcraft, Watch Dogs Legion, Total War, Warzone, StarCraft 2, and Assassin's Creed. The Ram runs at 3200mh with timing settings 16-18-18-36.

That is actually really good point and that is why I'm in doubt.

You’ll likely see only a small change in performance. If you’re determined, you can boost it further. I won’t hold you responsible! You might just aim to push the 9900k up to around 5.1 MHz.
