I am upgrading my rig, which is this https://www.newegg.com/ibuypower-source-series-ne713i/p/N82E16883227505 with a RM 850x PSU and R9 390 added, with these parts;

The upgrade is in preparation for a new GPU I will be saving up for which will be a large (something like Strix or Trio) model of the 3080 or 6800 XT. I have researched to the best of my ability and as far as i can tell the parts are compatible with each other and with the new GPUs. Does anyone agree or know better? Thanks for any info.
 
Try to get a B550 board.It has pcie gen 4.0 which will be better for your next gen card.To add to that you can always upgrade to a 5000 series procesor with b550 chipset,b450 can do it too,but only some b450 boards can do it.Check this mobo out:

Everything else in the build is good.
Much thanks for teh tip and info. Would the V2 B550 be the best option? As far as I can find out it has a few extra plug ins and one or two minor improvements but is essentially the same mobo.... while still being the better pick since the price is the same.
