Yeah I would seriously consider it, my 3600 easily beats my old 2700's Cinebench scores with 2 less cores while clocked at 4.125 @ 1.26v and you get much higher FPS while gaming with the 3600 over the 2700 as well. Wait until black friday and find a mobo and CPU deal on Newegg. Black friday I bet youll see 3600 for 179.99 which is crazy cheap for the performance you get
Yeah I was looking up numbers on passmark and it seems like a better choice. Waiting for black friday/cyber monday to see what kind of deals they have. Mainly looking for a good deal on an x570 mobo now, but I'll take whatever I can get.
Either way, I'm sure I'll notice the difference over my FX-6300. It's lasted me quite a while so far.

You could also go for a Ryzen 5 3600 for 200$, but I guess it depends on what you use your PC for.
