Hello everyone, I'm considering replacing my Ryzen 5 2400G with either a 5600X or a 3700X. Both options fit my budget and work with my motherboard. I plan to use it for gaming—especially competitive shooters like Fortnite and Valorant—and also stream. Right now, streaming causes noticeable lag on the 2400G, so I’m hoping a higher-end CPU will help. My goal is to keep either the 3700X or 5600X for at least two to three years. What advice do you have for getting the best performance for gaming and streaming without needing a future upgrade? Thanks!

5600X offers stronger single-core speed and improved IPC compared to the 3700X, despite having two fewer cores.
