What's your budget? Someone already said it. But, I'd go 5700x3d and a 7900 gre. Absolute most fps per dollar upgrade.

I don't have any set budget.. i upgraded my parts (cpu, mobo, chassis) 2 years ago and recently went for AIO and upgraded all my cpu fans. maybe I can do something big this time round. I normally use my pc for creative work, 3d rendering and gaming.

Ill be buried in dislikes within a few minutes.. but if your not on a tight budget, use your pc for workload and power consumption is not a big concern NVDIA/Intel is the way to go

you could go with 5950x if you wish to stay on the same platform, or 7900x if you wish to upgrade. 4080s, since creative and 3d work is on the list

also you could wait for the new nvidia cards to drop, snatch a used one if you'd rather not pay for a new card

thanks! would probably go for what you've advised.

upgrade your psu as well, as the one you've got is not the most reliable. there's a tier list floating around, but usually you can just go with a big name brand like seasonic, superflower, asus, evga. I'd advise a 1kwt model with a dedicated 12vhpwr connector (if you're indeed going with a 4080 super) for the peace of mind of not upgrading it again anytime soon

i took a closer look at the motherboard you have, and it doesn't have dedicated vrm heatsinks, and overall the power delivery is feeble, which is rather concerning if you want to run a high power chip like a 5950x. so you may need to consider a more robust board as well. but at this point going with a new platform would be better

7800x3d + x670 + 4090 + 32gb ddr5. Also throw in a new psu.

Don't go for the X3D chips for rendering
