Hey Guys, this is Astiun... (sorry for the bad joke)
I'm looking for guidance about an upgrade that I'm planning to do, is it worth to update or should I wait (i will prefer to do the update before the new releases).

Right now my system has the following specs:
Processor AMD Ryzen 7 1700X

BaseBoard Product ROG CROSSHAIR VI HERO (WI-FI AC)
Installed Physical Memory (RAM) 32.0 GB (they are corsair vengeance)

video card: EVGA GTX 1050ti SSC
hard drive: Samsung SSD 256
cooling: Corsair h100i

And the idea is to upgrade for the following cooling: NOCTUA NH-C14S
hard drive: ADATA XPG SX8200 Pro 1TB
ram: Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 64GB (4x16GB) DDR4 3200 (PC4-25600) C16
processor: Intel Core i7-9700K
motherboard: GIGABYTE Z390 DESIGNARE
video card: zotac gtx 1080ti (i bought a used one for $440)

I'm planning to keep some things like the case, and the power supply. And sell The old things in my town (I'm from Costa Rica).

To give more context of why I'm going to intel route is because of thunderbolt 3, also I do 4k video editing as well some photoshop, illustrator. Also my monitors are (
LG 29UM68-P 29-Inch 21:9, 49BL95C-W 49In)
I appreciated the help. =)

a 1080 ti isnt a bad card but i would reccomend going with a newer 1660 ti or a 2060 super, also amd cpus are much better value than intel right now, i would reccomend getting a ryzen 7 3700x, it should work with your current motherboard if you have b450 or newer plus it is cheaper.
