good enough for 1080p60 - 144hz with a gsync/freesync display

Save yourself some money and just get the 3600 non X SKU. Not really worth it for the extra $50.

depends on what you can get the 3600/x for
https://pcpartpicker.com/products/cpu/#s=60&k=33&g=0&h=1&C=6&sort=price&f=94

if its cheaper for the 3600x vs the 3600, get the 3600x

x is 200mhz faster (<6%), not worth spending more than an extra $10 (+5%) for it

xt is 100mhz over that (max boost only), definately not worth spending the $50+ premium for it


they are basically higher binned, due to slightly better performing cores that can turbo higher and/or run slightly cooler when clocked the same
