Budget (including currency): $750 with peripherals 

Country: US

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: mostly gaming driving/ racing such as Need for Speed Forza Horizon and simulator like Snowrunner and American Truck

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): cpu: probably 3300x; gpu: gtx1650 super; storage 500gb m.2 ssd. Need monitor mouse and keyboard. Upgrading from PS3 (crazy right!?). Want to buy as soon as possible. I'm guessing that I'll be happy with 1080p @ 60 fpsfps. I'm wondering if I should go with a x570 motherboard or wait for b550. Want a good upgrade path for future. Short life cycle of consoles is why I'm switching to pc from consoles. If you can include reasons for your suggestions that would be awesome. Thanks a lot for your help!

With just 750$ you ain't gonna get away with a monitor, mouse and keyboard and whole system. Not unless you're buying a 10-15$ mouse and keyboard from your local store or retailer.
