This is really the only time I'd say go with a pre built system. If you need to, try and find one with easy upgrade availability

When would be the best time to build? I haven't followed much on the Ryzen 4000/B550 and Nvidia Ampere.

No one can say, we don't know when this pandemic will peter off.

 

It's not the release dates of things that are the problem, its the prices
