I'm planning to treat myself to a new CPU this Christmas and want to upgrade from my Ryzen 5 3600. Ideally, I'm looking for something better that costs around $110. Here are my current specs: Ryzen 5 3600, MSI A320M A PRO, GTX 1660 Super, 16GB (2x8GB) 3200MHz RAM, and a 700W Bronze PSU. Any suggestions?

Look into the used market for a 5600, 5600X, or 5700X. Start with local listings like Facebook Marketplace for better deals instead of eBay.
If you're lucky, you might find a secondhand Ryzen 5 5600 or 5700X for about that price, but new ones tend to go for more. Definitely check the used market!
I've seen the 5700X available at retail stores here in Australia.
