[SOLVED] ~$750 for PC Upgrade - Suggestions needed (1440p gaming / video editing)

[THBronx]

Hey y'all! I'd like some suggestions for my PC upgrade.

- Budget:

Between $700 ~ $750 USD for a: CPU + Motherboard + Ram

- What am I going to use it for:

My initial plan is gaming (Triple A titles) in 1440p (after updating my monitor at the end of the year), editing videos (vlogs, gameplay, short movies) in 1080p using Adobe Premiere / After Effects.

So I'm thinking about migrating to an AMD CPU and I'm not sure about which one to choose. I live in Japan and I'm thinking about getting the parts from NewEgg, since I can have free shipping on a few items and the prices are still better than here.

- My current setup:

i5 4460 Haswell, ASRock H81M-HDS, GTX 1080 8GB, 8GB Ram, Corsair RM650X, Case CMT 230, Monitor, SDD, etc

- Questions:

1. Do I have to buy a new case?
2. Please let me know If I'm missing a component or something.

Thank you!

feel free to remove them if you already have M.2 SSD's. You could look at an ATX board to fill the space in your case or get a smaller form factor(matx) chassis but the existing case should accept the board without any issues.

Thanks, @Lutfij! I checked your suggestions and I was checking the prices here. Well, I will end up buying everything here in Japan (unfortunately, cuz I'd save around 90 bucks buying from the US stores, anyway...), so I only changed the MB for a B450 Tomahawk Max and removed the Western Digital SSD to save some money.

So this is the list:

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3700X 3.6 GHz 8-Core Processor ($279.99 @ Amazon)
Motherboard: MSI B450 TOMAHAWK MAX ATX AM4 Motherboard ($124.99 @ Best Buy)
Memory: G.Skill Sniper X 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3600 CL19 Memory ($64.99 @ Newegg)
Storage: Crucial P1 1 TB M.2-2280 NVME Solid State Drive ($104.99 @ Amazon)

- And after the upgrade, my build will be like this:

Power Supply: Corsair RMx (2018) 650 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply ($125.99 @ Best Buy)

I think I'll be able to see nice improvements, especially regarding the CPU.
Thanks man!
