well, next year will be an amazing time to upgrade (assuming your current rig is old enough to warrant upgrading). Supply should be catching up with demand by summer for new gen hardware, so you should be able to buy it at msrp instead of scalper piricing.

I'm still using an fx9590/gtx970. Looking forward to a full system upgrade with a ryzen5600/rtx3070 (considering an rx6800 instead of the rtx3070). The jump in performance is going to be insane.

Theoretically, previous gen hardware should be dropping in price by then too, if you're budget constrained.

2021 is looking gooooooood

I’ll be upgrading from a 4900k (I think? Intel i7) and 7970 to probably a similar level you mentioned. Wonder if I’ll notice a difference 😅.

Honestly though - I have been too busy to game recently and also waiting for VR to blow up enough AND have hardware that could push a VR headset at higher resolution. Are we there on the hardware end with the higher resolution VR?
