Seems like you guys are steering him to an actually more expensive and slower choice all for the dubious benefit of 6 more threads and some misplaced brand loyalty. Remember, his intent is purely to play games on it. If it were me I'd just do an i5-8400 and a B360. Next time you upgrade it will be DDR5 and new motherboards anyway.
Keep in mind that all of us know that:
- He kept his previous CPU for 5 years ( wich CPU will last longer in games in time you think )?
- He will be able to find Ryzen 2/3 CPU's in 5 years that he can use to upgrade again without buying a new motherboard and upgrading to DDR5.
- The Ryzen 2600x is better at Multi-tasking
I do beleave that he shouldn't save money on the RAM. Ryzen needs 3000Mhz at least for good performance. And if he buys good RAM, he'll enjoy it for many years to come.
