Considering your setup and needs, I was thinking 5800x or 5900x would offer a noticeable boost over the 5600x. The price difference between models is quite significant, especially when factoring in performance and thermal management.

IPC remains consistent across all options; you simply add more cores and threads with the higher price. If you believe you can usually complete 16 threads, choose the 5800X. The remaining details become clear from this point.

Do you enjoy simulators such as BeamNG, Total War or Star Citizen? Those consume high CPU power and more cores are always appreciated no matter the screen or GPU used. Otherwise, most mainstream games behave similarly across all the 5000 Ryzen CPUs available today, with only slight variations due to clock speeds. Ofc 5600x faces challenges because it lacks enough cores for those planning to enter production or rely on the same CPU for extended periods until a critical issue arises (like a motherboard failure).

I aim for the 5900x since even if it seems too much, you probably won’t regret having more than necessary. You’re far more likely to gain than lose.

The 5800x is generally better for detailed gameplay, while the 5900x offers a wider field of view. Your choice depends on your preferred playstyle and comfort level.

He’s been playing Beam a lot lately. I’ve never noticed it being used in a way that surprised me.

Aim for your maximum budget, unless you're not in a position to.

When AI is active, all cores run at peak frequency. Back then, my i5 7400 struggled with high loads or when AI was on. Switching to a 6C/12T Ryzen 5 2600X resolved those problems. The original poster should notice better performance with any of the three CPU options.

We have a 2700X model. I need to take a look. It seems to operate quite well. The FPS isn't clear on a 4K 55" display, but it runs smoothly overall. The 5600X definitely outperforms the 4770 in that regard.
