Pc Build

Sorry if this is the wrong thread to list this under, but I need help building a pc. 
I have previously had a ryzen 7 3700x build and I loved it but had to sell because it was distracting me from school. Now that I am done with school I want to pick back up, but haven’t been keeping up with what’s good anymore. 
 

my budget is $1,500 and I don’t need mouse, keyboard, headset, or monitor. I only need the PC. 
 

I play games like Fortnite, apex, valorant and gta 5 so they’re not super intensive but I might pick up some more intensive games so I would like it to be “future proof”. 
 

I was thinking maybe a ryzen 7 3700x build 
Or a ryzen 9 3900x ( if possible under $1500)

dont really know too much about the graphics card but I’d like a decent one! 
 

thanks in advance to everyone who responds with their ideas.

If you have a computer to get you by there's new cpus expected from AMD in the next couple months, also new graphics cards from Nvidia and AMD.

If you don't care about that, the 3700x should be adequate for the forseeable future, should be able to pair with a 2070/2080 super

You definitely don't need a Ryzen 9 for gaming, even with "future-proof" intentions. Stick to the R7.
