You’re looking for an affordable AMD upgrade under $200. Consider the Ryzen 7 5800X3D or the RX 6700 X, both offering solid performance and staying within budget.

1600af offers a solid budget-friendly upgrade since it's essentially a 2600 model. At $85, it's a smart choice unless you're on a tighter budget—then a 3600 would be better. Make sure your board supports it and update it if necessary.

Remember that the 3600X offers similar performance gains to the 3600 overclocked version.

Could you clarify what you're referring to? I need more context to give a helpful answer.

The setup at 3600x includes a boost from 200MHz plus a decent cooler that’s not too powerful but still adequate. Therefore, choosing the more affordable 3600 model makes sense.

Yes, you should update your BIOS for the switch from Ryzen 5 1400 to Ryzen 5 3600 on a B350M BAZOOKA.

This board appears to feature only a beta version of the BIOS for third-gen compatibility, which is quite outdated. Be prepared for potential issues. You shouldn't expect performance improvements from AMD updates later on.
