Discussion about the Ryzen 3600 processor
Your current configuration uses a Ryzen 3600 with DDR4 3600 and a 5700 XT. Upgrading to a X570 board like the ASUS TUF or MSI MPG from Crosshair VI could offer some benefits, but beyond PCIe 4 support it’s unclear. You’re considering swapping your secondary build from an X370 to a secondary X570 or opting for a B450 for your 1600X. The $100 price difference isn’t huge, and you’re unsure if the changes will make a noticeable difference. Since you mainly use Linux for development and gaming via compatibility layers, and primarily need performance for Windows games and streaming, the upgrade might not justify the cost unless you notice tangible improvements.
