But surely that's what you want , 100% on the CPU , getting the most out of it !!

But I don't want a stuttering mess that I can't work on properly.

I gather these vidz your rendering are large in size ? ( length and bitrate )
thus taking time up on your PC
the vidz i did were gopro footage at 2k and about 12/15 mins long and only took about 10mins (iirc) with R5 3600

Music videos where I'm loading around 10 files simultaneously. I get some crazy stutter when everything is loaded making it hard to edit. It's running off the boot SSD, maybe the 16gb ram is the limiting factor? I'm due a cpu upgrade this year so that'll be happening regardless.

No expert , but i think the 16gb ram could be the problem !
iv read a good few times that 32gb + of ram ( faster the better for ryzen) would be/is better for editing,
so even if you upgraded the CPU , i still think the ram could be the issue ,
your due an upgrade ?
try the ram first , the 2600 is still a decent CPU , like i said the only difference would be "time saved" if you went with the 3700x
( if the ram doesn't make any difference you could always sell it on here , recoup the money and go for 3700x )

Got this up and running. Very nice monitor and a big step up from my Dell. Just need the gpu to push it now. I almost bit at 500 so to get it for £360 was a bargain!

Is the B550 Tomahawk likely to deal with overclocking four RAM modules better than the B450 Tomahawk MAX..?

Is the B550 Tomahawk likely to deal with overclocking four RAM modules better than the B450 Tomahawk MAX..?

I would have thought so but not 100%, VRM's are rated as one of the best on any motherboard so should be good.

Maybe this? Should be about £95 with a fee free card; Corsair 32GB (2x16GB) 3200MHz C16 which is decent enough! But no Ballistix...
