Hey, I recently bought an arc b580, but my system has a Ryzen 5 1600. I am looking for really anything, but preferably an 8 core (I am flexible) Ryzen 3000 or 5000. My price range is up to $175, but I am flexible depending on how good the deal is. (Again, flexible)
Heat is my username
Thank you in advance!

I have a Ryzen 3800X, bought from a fellow forum member a couple of years ago. Used with a Noctua D15S and never OC’ed. I did fiddle with voltage to lower it to reduce heat output. The only sane prices I found on Ebay were roughly $100.

I have heat, bought and sold multiple GPUs during the ETH GPU craze.

Do you have the stock cooler possibly?

The 5000 series is much faster than the 3000 series. Don't forget to turn on Resizable Bar for that GPU, it needs it.

17.50 for a good cooler keeps you right under that price point

For 120 bucks more you can get the 5700X3D and that... is a total game changer with where you're coming from. Huge gains at 1080 and 1440P with that CPU.

Costs more, but in gaming it will be like +15-20 FPS gains in most games.

I should have a few AM4 processors.

1. Ryzen 7 5800X
2. Ryzen 5 5700G
3. Ryzen 5 3600

I'll update this post when I get home this evening.
 
I would take your chip and cash for my 2700/2700x (cant remember which I sold).
I need my server running, so I would need you to ship first..
