As many of you might know from my "recent" thread where I asked the community on Should I upgrade Link and with the community response, I did.
CPU: Intel i7-3770k 3.4Ghz Ivy-Bridge 22nm.
Motherboard: Asus P8H77-M LE (LGA1155)
Ram: HyperX Furie series 16GB (2x8) (Before upgrade it was some random 8GB Ram)
GPU: Gigabyte RTX 2070 8G Windforce (Before upgrade it was Nvidia Geforce GTX 970 Turbo-Gaming)
SSD: Samsung Evo 750 120GB
HDD: Hitachi HDS721 (too long to include)
Powersupply: Corsair TX 750M Full-modular
Elgato Gaming 1080p 60 FPS
Mouse: Razer Deathadder Essential
Keyboard Razer Blackwidow x Chroma
+ PS4 Pro, BenQ XL2411P (connected with Display Port for 144hz 1080p) and XL2411 60hz (supports up to 144 hz (not with HDMI or DP)) for console
So, the next upgrades will be:
CPU: Intel i7-9700k 3.4Ghz - 2666mhz Ram (which there was better i7 with more ram mhz support)
Motherboard: ASUS Prime Z390-A
Ram: Corsair CMK32GX (2x16) 2666mhz
PSU: Same as the current one.
SSD: M.2 (Windows): Samsung Evo 970 250 GB, Samsung 860 QVO 1TB (rendering software and other programs)
HDD: Seagate Skyhawk 2TB for videos/games
Elgato Gaming 4K PCL
Mouse: Glorious Model-O (Buying it soon) + Glorious Mousepad
Keyboard: Corsair k70 Red silent switches (most likely)
Monitors: Most likely keep the both same, who knows, unless 4K becomes the norm.
PS4 Pro, Xbox One x, Nintendo Switch, and plenty more...
Oh, before I forget, this is my case: Thermaltake - Commander MS-III Interior
The chasie does not need to be changed due to its specifications and stuff, it can fit most modern motherboard, I do not know about water cooling as I have not tested that, yet.
I think the new upgrade should be decent enough for 4k 144 fps recording (depending on the game, of course), I am passionate gamer, love gaming and will keep playing till death, even if there are going to be some limitations. This is my passion, regardless on how WHO (world health organization) treats it.
Responses will always be apperciated, and some of you might ask "why not get new motherboard, and cpu now?) its because I am on a "leash" with the gpu and stuff, so it'd not be worth it to pay extra for shit that I already pay for, which is in total up to 720 or 730 euros with both RTX 2070 8G Windforce + Corsair TX750M, so, I'll have to wait.

i dont know about that chief
there are very few recent games that run on 4k144 even with a 2080ti, i wouldnt aim for 4k144 but 1440p120 should very much be possible
also before you spend money on an intel system now id highly recommend waiting for the new ryzen cpus to arrive in july
amd said theyll bring high increases in per thread performance so theyre viable for gaming now aswell as more cores

idk how much razen will benefit from rendering files that are 10-15 minutes long, i just want a cpu that won't overheat like idiot without watering cooling, and pretty much has normal cooler, if ya know what i mean.
But, how do you rate the overall new build in terms of motherboard (if there is same one for amd, I'll get it)

temps with previous ryzen gens have been better than intel also power draw was better
and the advantage with ryzen is the compatability of the motherboards, so for a cpu upgrade you dont always have to get a new motherboard

that would mean i'd have to get a motherboard that supports amd.

yeah true
sooner or later you need to get a new motherboard anyways though
id rather get an am4 board in which you can upgrade the cpu rather than a z390 board where youre locked to 9th gen intel cpus

Can you link me with few suggestions? I'm more of a fan of an Intel product, and my i7-3770k been lagging my PC whole a lot and videos that are trimmed down from 1 or 2 hours down to 10-15 minutes, and it takes 30 minutes to render

what would be your rough budget? so i dont link anything too expensive or cheap

There isn't a budget, as long as the motherboard supports future upgrades for the newer cpu's, but then again cpus constantly change.

im actually against the idea of buying the most highend stuff for the reason that it will last longer, that usually does not apply that well and the amount you pay extra for the highest end products is not worth the extra cost
good thing coming from someone with a 14core cpu that costs 1200€ lol
but if i were you id buy something in the upper middle of the lineup
you will get good performance now and in 2-3 years you can upgrade without having wasted to much money

Here are the parts that I am going to go with in terms of AMD;
if you can wait 1 month then def wait for the new ryzen generation to be released on july 7th
it will apparently bring big upgrades all accross the board

I can wait for 1 month, as I don't have enough at the moment to buy the new components, but I can buy the ram and motherboard, all I hope is that the motherboard I linked will be good enough for the new generation of Ryzen.

i would wait with buying the motherboard and see what the new ones are gonna be like
might also get the older ones cheaper in a sale once the new cpus and motherboards are out

I'll be getting the AMD Ryzen 7 3700X, I just need a motherboard that supports one m.2 port, and 5-10 SATA ports.
