I’m looking to upgrade my Ryzen 5 3600 to a better CPU while keeping my current motherboard. I have an RTX 3060 and 32GB of DDR4 RAM, so I’d love to hear your recommendations! Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

The 5700X3D is a solid choice for your setup! It should pair nicely with your RTX 3060 without any issues.
If you’re looking for something that works well with your GPU, the 5600X or 5700X are both great options. You probably don’t need a super powerful CPU like the 5800X3D unless you’re planning to upgrade your GPU soon. Just a heads up, though—the 5800X3D can be a bit of overkill for now.
