    I'd say you should wait to upgrade everything at once. 
     
    Your CPU is gonna bottleneck a 5700xt or a 2070 Super. Getting a 5600xt/RTX 2060 or something lower isn't really worth it in your case because the R9 390 is still a decent GPU. 
     
    I'd tell you to get a 4770k but they are so expensive used it's just not worth it. Getting a Ryzen 1600 isn't worth it really because then you need a whole new motherboard and ram to go with it and it's just a stop gap upgrade. 
     
    Basically, sit tight and wait until you have the funds for a full upgrade. It's gonna be a rough CPU bottleneck at 1440p but manageable if you decide to upgrade anyways. Then you'll be kicking yourself when your 5700xt isn't good enough for your upgraded CPU and Motherboard in a year.
