Is this a good upgrade from a 3600 or would the X3D chip be better?

If you have a high-higher end GPU then you will beneifit from the 5800X or better 5800X3D. As far as is this a deal? No. You might as well upgrade to the X3D that can be had for $270 for a final ride.

It was posted here. Search for it. If you live near a MC, I'll just pick up the 5600X3D bundle.

I saw that basically the 5700x and 5800x are basically the same price right now. 5800x is a lot better for identical price. Hopefully that means 5700x can be like 150$ 😎

I would recommend a thermalright peerless assassin dual tower cooler. Highly rated from gamers nexus. I got one. And the included thermal paste is actually some of the best thermal paste I've ever used. You can get one of those 30-35 depending on the style

They have RGB ones. Black and white. I went with white RGB. There's non RGB ones as well

i have been running this chip a few years. it is a hot boy but manageable. my ambient temps are high but my case cooling is good.

with a dark rock 4 cooler, i am running PPT 95, TDC 60, EDC 90. this nets 4.4ghz and between 70 and 80c in cinebench. YMMV. google "pbo 5800x" for more info.

that said, i paid much more than this and am happy with the chip, but idk if this is a deal when you factor in needing serious cooling and some tweaking to get it humming.

You'll be paying 40% more for about 9% more average performance at 1440p compared to 5800X.
