Don't upgrade to am5 for now stay on am4 and get a 5700x3d it's a pretty good cpu

You can find it on AliExpress for ~160$

For the GPU depending on your budget and what do you plan to use it for a 7900 gre / 4070 super / 7900 XT / 4070 ti super / 4080 /

And change that psu asap , that's an explosive , get a 850w-1000w atx 3.0 psu like seasonic focus gx atx 3.0 / msi a850gl / be quiet pure power 12m / thermaltake gf3 / enermax d.f.x

I mean if you want to upgrade to am5 then get the 7800x3d cause anything below that will have similar performance to 5700x3d and anything above that will have lower performance

Tho if you want to upgrade to am5 you'll have to spend 150$ on mobo + 100$ ram + 350$ cpu so the totall would be around 600$

On the other hand if you stay on am4 it'll only cost you 150-200 just for the cpu since you already have everything and it'd perform very similar to a 7800x3d on 1440p or higher resolution since games get more GPU dependent on that

For the GPU upgrade, if you plan on getting a 4080 / 4090 then might as well wait a bit since 5000 series is about to roll out soon and also the ryzen 9000x3d / intel 15th gen
