Is it worth upgrading my Ryzen 5 2600X with a MSI X570 Motherboard and a GTX 1080 GPU to a Ryzen 3700X or go ahead to a Ryzen 5000 series CPU?
The Rig Runs most games at 4k High now but I am curious if upgrades are worth while. Early next year I plan to get a RTX 3080 or the AMD 6800XT
 
Solution
Since you already have a compatible mobo, I see no reason to do only one generation. Go 5xxx

Either of your choices could likely have you waiting into next year anyway.
