Don't fancy swapping over to amd myself and as much as i try to persuade myself to punch on a underwhelming 11990k, i just can't with a system that hooks up with 97% of everything. There's benefits to to had with a faster CPU in physics heavy VR, both in dedicated product and more generically simulation titles.
To name that missing 3% A brute force on American/euro truck is possible in the hope of removing a few stutters around them cities, more is always better in competizione with grids over 30, and MS flight might see more joy, but you'll still be wanting to avoid any landmass with any kind of habitation while crying in to your thousand pound investment in the **** end of nowhere.
I don't know how a 3600 stacks up against my old 9700k that i want to replace, but if it's anywhere close then don't bother if your only doing it to see improvements in what's available VR gaming wise. The only dedicated VR product that comes close to breaking the bank i can think of is Thief Sim VR, very CPU intensive physics abound with a dev scrambling to optimize amidst crying hoards.
Just that 3% though that comes to my mind, even No Mans Sky goes ok these days.
