Top Ryzen options that work well with an RTX 2080 at 1440p resolution.
Unless you're facing a scenario where your present CPU isn't meeting your expectations, it's best to wait. You could encounter some performance limits in certain games, but as long as it doesn't drop below 60 frames per second at your lowest acceptable graphics settings or trigger other visual problems, waiting makes sense. Reports suggest the Ryzen 4000 might be released by the end of 2020, potentially offering a significant improvement over the 3000 series.
I planned to purchase the 3700x but discovered it offers minimal performance gains even compared to the 3600 at 1440p. I’ll go with the 3600 now (just because I’m willing to spend another $200 on my setup for a solid boost until late this year). When the 4000 chips arrive, if the rumors hold true, I’ll upgrade to the next generation. After that, I’ll be ready for a while.
Sure. Adding the extra 1440p monitor caused a drop in performance, reducing it from 340 to 120.
