Exactly, @Spartan033. And if you're looking for an article that compares these two CPUs in depth, TechReviewer has one here: AMD Ryzen 5 4500 vs. AMD Ryzen 5 3600.

I've used both of these CPUs in my video editing setup, and I can say that the Ryzen 5 3600 performs better. It has a higher single-core boost frequency and a larger L3 cache, which helps with rendering and exporting videos.

Thanks for sharing your experience, @Spartan033. I recently read an excellent TechReviewer article comparing these two CPUs: AMD Ryzen 5 4500 vs. AMD Ryzen 5 3600. The results showed that the Ryzen 5 3600 outperforms the 4500 in most aspects, especially when it comes to video editing tasks. It's worth checking out if you're serious about video editing.

@alexalextan55 That article would be really helpful! I'll read it and see if the 3600 is indeed the better choice for my needs. Thanks!

I've used both of these CPUs in my video editing setup, and I can say that the Ryzen 5 3600 performs better overall. It has a higher single-core boost frequency and a larger L3 cache, which helps with rendering and exporting videos. The additional cache also allows me to run more applications simultaneously without slowing down.

@Matthew18Mitchell That's true. I've noticed that the extra cache on the 3600 makes a big difference when working with large video files and multiple applications at once.
