@@syncmonism ryzen 7 5700x is better for future proofing but it would also be the same if you got the 3700x when it was brand new as the extra cores/threads help in more demanding games/ applications
Honestly more than 3 years very happy with 3700X,,, recently upgraded to 7800x3d,,,,still have that combo of 3700x sitting on the shelf with cooler, MB and RAM
A newer and more highly-clocked hexacore will usually beat an older and lower-clocked octocore in gaming. Also, when it comes to gaming, Zen3 was a paradigm shift because AMD had FINALLY beaten Intel at single-core performance and, thus, gaming. Having said that, the R7-3700X acquitted itself admirably. There's no question that the Ryzen 3000-series had great gaming performance. Not a single game was under 60FPS, well, except for FS2020 but FS2020 doesn't require high frame rates. Microsoft itself says that 30FPS is more than enough because there's no fast-paced action. I remember seeing a "lowly" R3-3100 looking VERY impressive in games. I thought it would suck because it's just a 4C/8T CPU but when you think about it, that's what Unreal Engine 4 was designed for because that's all that Intel was churning out for the longest time. We're pretty lucky that Ryzen came along.
I have first hand experience with both of those CPU's, the 5500 is 10-15% faster because it Uses Zen 3 while the 4500 uses Zen 2. the 5500 also has a bit more cache which helps in games, hope this helps ya
@@RacikanGokil No problem, if you want watch the 5600G vs 4600G video, they're the same CPU's as the 5500 and the 4500 except they don't have iGPU's I think this channel has a video about it
