I found the stock CPU cooler that came with the 3600x to be too noisy, so I replaced it with a Cooler Master Hyper 212 Black Edition. Much quieter.
Blows it out of the water

On the flip side you got a 2080ti, then get the upgrade.
So there is no one shoe fits all answer.
But at the of the day, unless you get a huge price difference, go with the 3rd gen Ryzen.

Thanks for the thorough explanation, I ask because I just got the 2700x today for $125 which came with a $30 discount on a board so it was essentially $95. I'm probably only going to put a rx 580 in it because I'm trying to keep the cost low.
UPDATE: I called Microcenter and they refunded $20 back to my credit card since I paid the regular price of $219.99 just few weeks ago:
Payment type: Credit Card
Original price: $219.99
Current price: $199.99
Approved by: Andi A.
The following restrictions do apply to Price Protection:
We do not price protect special sales such as Black Friday or Cyber Monday.
The current price must be lowered within 30 days from the date of purchase.
If you paid for this transaction with a credit card we will apply the refund to your card. If you paid by any other payment type (debit, cash, etc.) you must return to the store to receive your refund.
Difference was about 8-23 dollars when considering the famous $30 microcenter discount.
