I built my current PC 1 couple of years (approx) ago now.
This is the gist of of it!
CPU AMD Ryzen 5 3600
MAG B550 Tomahawk (MS-7C91)
BIOS A.00 - AMD AGESA ComboAM4v2PI 1.0.0.0
Graphics - AMD Radeon RX6600
Memory - DDR4 32GB 1600 MHz
I feel it needs a bit of a boost on some photoshop stuff (e.g. focus stacking 20 Raw files). I only use it for photoshop , lightroom, excel word, access occasionally. My Grandson uses it even less for "x-plane" when he gets bored on s visit!
I know the Ryzen 5 is pretty "old hat" now.
Web search says Ryzen 7 3700X is next step up? OCUK has only one of these - B grade at £200. Is that the way to go?
(https://www.overclockers.co.uk/?query=ryzen%207%203700x £200 / B grade)
IF I did go this way would I need to upgrade the BIOS for the CPU?
Thanks for any advice. Mel
