Hey everyone! As mentioned in the title, the Ryzen 5 7600X costs the same as the non-X version. What would you pick? I’d probably choose the non-X model because it uses less power, though putting it in PBO might make that difference less noticeable. Also, do you know its power consumption when using PBO? Share your thoughts! Thanks a lot!

You can lower the power limit on PBO, but you can't adjust it in the opposite direction. I'm leaning toward the X version if you're open to tweaking PBO, since it includes Curve Optimizer.
