Which AMD CPU for 1080p gaming ? (inc VR)

[ShiWarrior]

at the moment I'm sticking with 1080p (no idea when I will go higher)

I play at 1080p 144 HZ

I also will link my Quest 2 to the PC


Looking at the OcUK shop (i have vouchers)

I am looking at these 4 CPUs



3600 £178
3700X £270
5600X £320
3800XT £330

Would the 3600 still be capable for a few years ?

tempted to save a bit of money and get the 3600 for now


any other options / Alternatives ?
