Have upped the CPU being as you sound like you'll also be doing multitasking. But in reality, you might not even need the 3700X.
Also if you wanted to go more, you could upgrade the GPU to the 2080 Ti. Just the RX5700XT is excellent value and probably around the 2070S level.

sorry i forgot to mention i also kinda want rtx
if i want rtx should i go for 2070s, 2070, 2080s, 2080 or 2080 ti?
also do i not need a cpu cooler?

 

[PC Tailor]

AMD comes with one already.
Well the RX5700XT is better than the 2070 but a fraction of the price. It's closer to 2070S.
As I stated at the bottom of my previous one, if you wanted to go further, go up to 2080. The 2070S IMO isn't worth it compared to the RX5700XT.

What particular reason do you want RTX for? Streaming?

 

[Ananda Deb]

nah i just like the look
i am a big fan of nice crispy new tech graphics lol

 

[Ananda Deb]

btw 2080 should be good enough for 1440p right? or do i need 2080 super?

2070 Super is essentially a 2080, or within 10% of one at least. The latter has been replaced by the former, so is no longer in production.
