Probably a 3600, nothing too fancy. But in terms of RAM I'm doubling both speed and capacity with the upgrade to DDR4, so yeah.

Coming from a FX 8350 which bottlenecks certain CPU-heavy modern games' framerates in the mid 40s, that should be a interesting jump.

Not sure how precise the data on GPUCheck is, but difference between 3600 and 8350 with same GPU is around 40%, so yeah, quite a bump.

It's closer to 100% according to Gamedebate and youtube comparisons seem to confirm it. It can be even more impressive with 1% lows sometimes.

As it should be, really - Zen 2 has the best IPC in the market, while Piledriver matches Intel's Core architecture from 2008, clock per clock. It's absolutely abysmal nowadays for almost anything except certain niches like compacting and decompacting data.
