Pairing the right GPU and CPU!!!

I'm working on a gaming rig right now and am planning on buying once the Zen 3 CPUs are released in hopes of getting a better price. However I'm having difficulty deciding which setup I need. After seeing Linus's review of the Samsung Odyssey G7 and doing some additional looking at I've decided its the monitor I want to get. So I need to make sure I can reach its full capability with my rig.

 

The current CPUs that I'm looking at are,

AMD Ryzen 5 3600X 3.8 GHz 6-Core Processor 

or

AMD Ryzen 7 3700X 3.6 GHz 8-Core Processor

 

The current GPUs that I'm looking at are,

Gigabyte GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER 8 GB WINDFORCE OC 3X Video Card

or

EVGA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER 8 GB KO GAMING Video Card

 

Thank you :)

Ryzen 4xxx will be a big boost at the end of the year and Nvidia 3xxx will probably be released in August/September and also be a big boost in performance. 

 

So you might want to get a B550/x570 board with the ryzen 3600 to be able to easily swap it out for a ryzen 4600/4700 when they hit the market. 

 

And maybe hang in there with your current gpu and lowered settings. 

 

Apart from that: looks good!
