Need advice...

Hey!

 

It's my birthday next month (the 24th of November), and i decided to treat myself with a new PC!!

 

I do need a little bit of advice,

I'm planning on getting a RTX 3070 graphics card, but i'm not sure which motherboard and cpu to pair it with... i was thinking about either a Ryzen 7 3700X or a Intel i7-9700K, and for motherboard i have no clue.

 

If anyone could help me i would really appreciate it!

 

thanks in advance!

If you're planning on building it in November then wait for zen 3 and check what it has to offer first since it's around the corner, also don't bother with coffee lake, it's a platform that wont get updated and is more or less dead. 

Wait for zen 3 and check what it has to offer.

Most likely offer a new chipset, but if not a CPU to update your bios or max series motherboards that have a larger bios chip are your two options, current max boards don't support them obviously, but it would day zen 3 ready somewhere
