You're looking at older titles or certain indie releases, especially from ARMA III. Most recent games now require significantly more power than 4 cores/4 threads. Budget CPUs with quad-core non-HT chips can handle it, but I wouldn't recommend purchasing one unless it's part of an APU setup.

It seems the 3600 works well, but unless you already own the motherboard, the 3600 might be a better choice. This allows for future upgrades to the Ryzen 4000 series later on.

It depends heavily on the graphics card you have. A 2080Ti will likely be your biggest weakness. If you have a 1660Ti or lower, you'll perform well. But if you're building from the ground up with motherboard, CPU, and RAM together, the 3600 offers better value.

It's a poor CPU because it's too costly compared to its performance, and it needs a high-end board just to unlock its overclocking potential. I wouldn't want to invest in that one.

For this cost? Not really. Right now it's mainly for new games beyond the past. Plus, you can find the 3600 at that price and it performs much better overall.
