Should I upgrade my CPU or GPU?

Just now, DarthSmartt said:That is likely would I would do. Would the performance of the 3800x be sufficient for using the x264 encoder and playing games as well? I really don't want to spend too much extra on the upgrade I want to stay around 7-$800 on the cpu and mobo. I will be overclocking as far as i can and still be stable.
3800X still has 8 cores just like the 3700X, so while you'll probably be totally fine with an 8-core today, if you're CPU encoding, might as well go for a 3900X IMO
