Improving your CPU performance
you can swap the cpus without much hassle, but make sure your motherboard supports the new model. your ryan 5 3400g should work with a ryzen 7 2700x if your board is compatible. just check the specifications and ensure the power delivery and connectors match.
Your motherboard works well and replacing it is straightforward. What are you planning to use it for? For gaming, I suggest going with a 3600 over the 2700.
I play games and I’m picking the Ryzen 7 2700X since it’s more affordable and comes with a larger heatsink that has RGB lighting. I don’t have the budget for aftermarket cooling solutions.
Could use 2600x, it’ll cost less, there’s a large sink, though it doesn’t have RGB.
