You're considering upgrading your Zotac RTX 2060 with either the Ryzen 5 3600 or 5 3500. Will choosing the 3600 cause a bottleneck? Also, you'll be using the Gigabyte B450 AORUS Elite M.ORG motherboard.

Upgrading now is the best choice—go for 3600. It’s an excellent CPU. I just built my dad’s setup using it, and he also has an MSI Gaming Z RTX 2060.

Microcenter is offering the 3700x for $259.99 during a three-day promotion... it would be great to grab it if I hadn't already spent all my savings. AMD Ryzen 7 3700X 3.6GHz 8 Core for $259.99 https://www.microcenter.com/product/6083...ism-cooler EDIT: likely available only at the store.
