I'm looking at upgrading my ageing old 3770K system, and am looking at the above. I'm planning on coupling them with an X570 board, which is the better overall CPU. The 2700 is cheaper with more cores, but the 3600 is newer, more efficient, and I'm not sure if it can handle more M2 slots on the motherboards. The plan is to change the CPU out when the last of the Ryzen's that are compatible with the current socket start to go end of line.
 
Decision made, 3600X due to arrive with an X570 Asus board, and 16GB of DDR4 3600 RAM, should be ok to feed my old 980Ti
