I have another inquiry regarding the appropriate CPU for your x570 board. You've considered the AMD Ryzen 5 5600X, the AMD Ryzen 7 3800X and the AMD Ryzen 7 3700X. I'm seeking a balance between performance and cost, and after evaluating these options, you decided to go with the Ryzen 5 5600X. Is this the optimal choice for your needs?

The 5600X excels in gaming but only features six cores, while the 3700X3800X offers eight cores. Choose based on your needs—if you don’t require more than six cores, the newer 5600X is ideal. The 3700X and 3800X are nearly identical CPUs with only minor differences, making the 3700X a better pick in that case.

Gaming, a bit of rendering (GPU-heavy) and other stuff, honestly nothing else comes to mind. The 5600X seems like the best fit so far.

I believe the 5600X offers better performance. A Ryzen 5 5600X typically costs around 3300SEK or 3200NOK, though prices vary by retailer. Overall, it seems the 5600X provides a solid upgrade.

That's the lowest price I've seen for it.

Using Komplett.se offers solid options (based on my Norwegian experience), meaning the main factor is budget since most are quite competitive. Also, temperatures aren’t too extreme compared to the 5800X—my current model isn’t overheating like that.

It seems you're looking for a straightforward answer. Availability can vary quite a bit depending on the region.

In fact, it looks like they have it for a few dollars less, but I’m placing my order from there anyway—why not grab the CPU too?

Sure, it's simpler, though it costs a bit less. It doesn't really change much when you're spending a lot.
