I'll take bacon discussion over Intel/AMD fanboys at each other's throats any day.

I recently got a big 'ol slab of salt pork. Cut it thick and fry it up like bacon, so good. I think they use more sugar in the brine than with bacon.

Just an FYI. You can easily get a core i9 9900k for $430 bucks US. $600 is no where near what they cost now. Yes some online retailers will be overcharging customers but if you look you can find deals everywhere. Microcenter is 1 place and I think you get $30 or $50 off if you pair with a motherboard to get even more savings.

I'm not taking anything away from the 3600x. It's a decent little chip. Personally though I'm not supporting Zen 2. I'm going to wait to see what Intel brings out again and what zen 3 offers. And I can wait. I already have two great PCs that don't need upgrades. I'm not a big chiplet fan but I guess that might be the direction everybody's going. I hope not.
