A Ryzen 5 3600 could work in a 2080s, but it might not be the best choice. A Ryzen 7 3700X paired with a 2070 non-S would likely offer better performance and future-proofing. Consider your needs carefully!

It varies with the workload; for gaming, a 3600 works just like games, since they don’t benefit from more than 8 cores. A stronger GPU would also help more.

Thanks! I’d be diving into intense gaming sessions and maybe some light video or medium video editing.

The 3600 works well for light tweaks, but a stronger GPU would be more suitable here. The 10600k is another option if you can manage the cost, especially with the 2080 Pro offering better performance in games. You might also want to look at Zen 3, Ampere, Big Navi, and see what they provide.

Choose the version with the highest IPS for optimal performance in modern games. This ensures you're getting the best gaming experience possible. Does this still apply under Windows' latest updates? I'm already using all 16 threads, mostly at 20% load (1700x).

Of course, the CPU isn't just about the number of cores. In most cases, games don't actually require eight cores.

This setup seems solid. I’m choosing NZXT since I’m hesitant about making mistakes on my own and don’t have someone close who can help. The cost before tax comes to $2083 USD.

Are you restricted to that board? It can handle a 3600 easily, but it's a subpart at best and doesn't justify the 200 bucks. Also, the PSU is decent—850W isn't always necessary. A 550W model would suffice if you're not bound by this choice.

I use a Ryzen 5 2600x paired with an RTX 2080 Super, and everything functions perfectly.

The Gigabyte X570 Aorus Elite WiFi offers good value, matching your budget. The cheapest power supply starts at 650 watts, saving you 20 dollars.
