You should really look at your lowest fps on games to see what is lowest frames as it will be near 60fps, which would be capable of full sync, I do not believe any CPU could keep a constant 144fps with the tech we have & freesync / gsync is over-rated making you pay out more for a slight difference in quality, but most say 144hz because they are just bragging about it because some of us have not got a 144hz monitor.
I would buy a 4k monitor which works at 60hz, you can not fool me into thinking you have alot better graphics because you have 144hz monitor (& I have seen & used all these settings your thinking of & once you get used to the graphics it is not much better & did not impress me) in fact 4k is over rated.
You have already purchased a 144hz monitor & failed with it ?
You show me a really modern game that can keep a constant 144fps ? (& a 3600 will not do that on modern games)
? Were is the 144hz full sync setting - well there is not one because all CPU's are too weak & it has to be faked with freesync or gsync.
60fps Full sync is pulsed at 16ms per frame & alot of games on freesync & gsync have out of sync sound proving my point as it is very annoying hearing a engine not reving the same when racing & puts me of NFS The Run is like that above 30fps
It will not make you a better gamer for having 144hz just a reduced bank balance.
One other fact you need to consider is the freesync - gsync range is important for matching you cpu to the monitor like 40hz to 100hz sync range, no one has mentioned this to you on here though !
GTAV has a unlimited frame rate of 89 to 189fps with the 3600 so full sync is perfect for that as you not getting better graphics & at 144hz the fps will drop even more - look at the maths first buy last.
So good luck deciding.
Thanks roadblaster, but why does 3600 feature so prominently in discussions ? That’s the memory speed, or is that what’s being referred to ? As I have a Gigabyte GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER 8 GB WINDFORCE OC
thanks
Well mainly because of it's price, benchmarks & the fact that it can use the highest spec GPU without bottlenecking & it may be a 6-core but it has 12 logical processors all doing different jobs ?
Task manager shows 12 processors just in 6 core layers
I use a web page called "Hardware Compare", they just use mathmatical calculations when you look at 1 card versus another & do not give out an opinion of "this card is better than these 2" which I find anoying on other stupid benchmark site.
You will be fine with a 3600. Just I read some websites reporting a couple percent less performance at 1080P with a 2070 Super and more ona 3600. You will not notice difference really. I do some workstation stuff so that's why I would probably opt for 3700x or 3900x if I went back to AMD, but fore pure gaming, its a sweet spot CPU. 24" 144hz 1080P it will rock. I guess you're into e-sports games?
Thanks for all the info / advice, any recommendations on a really good monitor, still looking at 144Hz 1080 24” Very low response time

Maybe this could help you?

Hard to say I'm an IPS/Ultrawide guy.
I found 27" monitor was good also still not much eye movement close up.
I say this because when playng GTAV I found I could drive really fast without hitting any cars but when I had to send that TV back because it would not freesync with my RX570 card I went back to my 24" monitor & started to hit traffic again.
