Which Processor Should I Choose?
Willco2:
I'm looking to buy AMD's Ryzen, and I'm not sure if I should get the R5 1500x or 1600. I can afford the 1600, but I'm not quite sure I need it. I'm not doing any video editing related tasks, only games. I do run Discord, Chrome, and Spotify in the background though. I probably won't be buying another processor until 2020 btw.
Mr Queeba:
get the 1600, its a much better deal especially since the 6 cores / 12 threads in it are good especially with future games that are going to take advantage of them

Yeah I was thinking about that...

1600
auzman466:
just get the 1600x. with a good GPU, the difference in framerate when using a 1500x compared to the 1600 is minimal, but you're future proofing for more intense games with the 1600.
