Footnotes
1. Testing by AMD performance labs as of 9/2/2020 based on the average FPS of 40 PC games at 1920x1080 with the High image quality preset using an AMD Ryzen™ 9 5900X processor vs. Core i9-10900K. Results may vary. R5K-002
2. Max boost for AMD Ryzen processors is the maximum frequency achievable by a single core on the processor running a bursty single-threaded workload. Max boost will vary based on several factors, including, but not limited to: thermal paste; system cooling; motherboard design and BIOS; the latest AMD chipset driver; and the latest OS updates.

Technically, I do more productivity--mostly Adobe Suite, which doesn't even really tax my 3600, tbh--but I still want to upgrade for future gaming, and a few extra cores won't hurt anything either. If I was running Blender workloads constantly, then 5900x might be more on my radar.
I have to say, however, that if I were in your shoes and happily using a 5800X for my work/gaming, I probably wouldn't be able to justify dropping $300 on either.
