Hey that’s some pretty good detective work. I do indeed have a 3600x! I think I might be wrong on the price, maybe it was like $350? Idk. I can’t remember. I still love my pc, and as soon as I get home from vacation I’m upgrading the GPU and hopefully I’ll finally be able to pull 4k30 in all games rather than having to lower internal resolution to around 1800p. I’m definitely a weirdo for preferring 4k to high framerate, but I mostly only play slow paced single player games, so I don’t really mind it and I really enjoy the clarity of image that 4k brings.
The 3700x was 320$ and the 3600x 200$.
But I get you, running games at a higher resolution is prettier than upscaling to get better frame rate.
I think a lot of ppl don't know that the PS5 is upscaling most games and is not running a native 4k generally. Then they compare to pc hardware that does native 4k and say it's more expansive 🤷♂️
