So I realise I’m probably a dumbass, but I’m not sure in exactly which way yet. I bought an AMD Ryzen 5 7600X CPU in mid 2020, but looking online I see the cards under that name weren’t released until 2022, and the specs look different??

I wrote down all the specs for my pc after I built it so I wouldn’t forget. Could it be that I just wrote it down wrong and was telling people I had a CPU that wasn’t even built yet?

edit: yes I’m a dumbass it was 3600X. I’m gonna go crawl in a hole now, thanks for your time.

    Memory is a funny thing, don’t beat yourself up over it. Every time you remember something, the memory itself is altered in your mind. We know now that you didn’t have a 7600X, but I think it can also be true that you remembered buying one.
