What upgrade would you recommend, for someone who has a ryzen 5-3600, just for gaming(aka good single core marks) and stability (its a fight to get the b-die to even run at 3200 some days). I was thinking the 5700 or 5800 if there was a good sale. But for $120, the 5500 looks nice too if it OC's well and the game doesnt care about more than 4-6 cores.
Else its new plateform time, and i really dont want to switch to win11 to get the 12th gen intels.
And yes i have a microcenter 15min from work
Built an office PC with a 5600, cheap A520M board, 32GB DDR4-3200, thermalright air cooler. Very solid setup for the money.

As far as upgrade goes. It doesn't make sense to upgrade unless your getting minimum 5700x. 5600 doesn't make much sense. And it also depends on your GPU.
If you GPU is anything up to an rtx 3060, then a cpu upgrade isn't gonna make much of a difference.
When I say it doesn't matter too much. If your gaming and your goal is more frames per second. And your already getting 100fps average in various latest title games, a cpu upgrade only to gain 5-10fps doesn't make any sense. So you need to make sure if you do an upgrade it's a very big sizable upgrade. Like minimum 50% improvement in performance.
