My current system has a 3900x and 2080 super but looking to pass one of these on to my brother for his system (he has a B550 board along with a Ryzen 3100 but an old Radeon R9 270X )as I can afford one upgrade next year for my own.
My choices I am looking at are one of the new AMD 5900X with a PCIE 4.0 1TB NVME or a new graphics card either the 3080 or the new ones from AMD depending on their performance and price.
I can maybe do another upgrade in 2022 or 2023 and I do know the performance of the 5900x is something like 15% to 20% greater than my current one but from what I have read the new 3080s are hitting some bottlenecks even with current top end Intel CPUs for gaming.
