I discovered discounts at nearby online shops offering both the Ryzen 7 2700X and the Ryzen 5 3600X at the same cost. Decide which fits your needs best. Let me know if you need more guidance. Thanks!

3600X or 3600 non-X, unless you only perform tasks that require many threads at once.

The 3600/x approach works well in many situations, except when the task is strictly multi-threaded. What CPU do you currently possess? And how does the 3600 value compare to the x?

The 3600/x option appears to offer the better value

No, 3600x is not better than 2700X in single core performance.

Absolutely, that's correct. Unless it needs full parallel processing, the 3600/x version works well.

A 10% variation is about the same.

The price is approximately 40$ less than 3600 multiplied by minus 260, then subtract 220. This reflects the local cost in dollars.
