Ryzen 7 2700x or Ryzen 5 3600 CPU for gaming and streaming?

I'm faced with the question of whether I should buy a Ryzen 7 2700x or a Ryzen 5 3600 processor.

Which is better for playing and streaming games such as B.

Phasmophobia

GTA V

Fortnite

In silence

Spell break

Minecraft

and even more.

Right now I have the Ryzen 5 2600 and it works pretty well with it.

But not yet optimal the utilization is simply too high!

Is the 7ner better because of the 8 cores and 16 threads because of multitasking or the 5?

AND…

Is the 5 from the 3000 gen is compatible with my main board which is 2000 gen compatible?

Got the MSI Bazooka v2 b450

No

Both CPUs should be almost the same in terms of performance, the 2700x has 2 more cores, but the single core performance of the 3600 is better. By and large, I would rather use the 3600 because it is even more energy-efficient, the Ryzen 2700x has a higher power consumption with a similar performance.

Okay, so what's better, especially when it comes to streaming and gaming?

Both upgrades are not really worth it. Only a Ryzen 7 3700x or Ryzen 5 5600x is worth it again.
Although I would tend to the Ryzen 5 5600x if it were available again at a reasonable price.
