How would we know if the 2060 is not even out yet, all we can make is educated guesses.

First Build - Ryzen 3 2200G, ASRock B450M Pro 4, MSI Gaming X GTX 1660, G.Skill Ripjaws V 16 GB DDR4-3000, MyDigitalSSD BPX 256 GB M.2 SSD, WD Caviar Blue 640 GB 7200 RPM HDD, Corsair Air 240, Corsair CXM 550W 80+ Bronze Semi, MSI Optix MAG24MVC, Sunsonny S-J5, Corsair M65 Pro

I'd pay the extra money for an i5, or if you don't have any components for your new system yet, a Ryzen 5 2600.

The Ryzen 5 2600 is cheaper than most i5s so it offers great value. Bundle it with a decent B450 board and 16GB of DDR4-3000 and you're looking at a killer gaming PC, especially at 1440p.

Any ideas if a 4690k will be a bottleneck at 4Ghz?
