Upgrading PC

Hi, I've been playing on my PC for about 6-7 months with a low spec configuration wich was a gift from friends of mine, I have a ryzen 3 1200, an nvidia 1050, 8 gbs of ram (vengeance 3000) installed on my A320M- A PRO motherboard. I recently bought a ryzen 7 3800XT, a zotac 2060 and another stick of 8 gb ram (still vengeance 3000) but i'm still keeping the motherboard because I thought it was good enough to support everything that I bought. The upgrades are yet to be sent so I can't try them on my motherboard, and since i'm a beginner in PC building i wanted to know if my motherboard will be good enough to support both my cpu and my gpu, (I already checked the ram and the msi page says that the motherboard has dual channel and supports up to 3200 (oc)) but I'm not sure if I can overclock the cpu if i need too on this motherboard. I'm just trying to gather as much information to know if this motherboard with the new config will let the cpu and gpu work at their best or if it will give me problems.

The 2060 is way underpowerd for the 3800xt i would send them back if possible and get a ryzen 5 5600x and wait and get a 3060 ti  or somthing like that

Any Help is appricated! Please correct me if I´m wrong!

Sorry for grammer/spelling mistakes, but english is not my native language (it´s german in case you were curious) *expand to see builds*

 

Primary PC: CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600 | GPU: Crossfire Radeon 6870 + 6850 | RAM: CORSAIR Vengeance 2X16 = 32GB @ 3600MHZ DDR4 | MOBO: ASUS ROG STRIX B450-F | COOLER: COOLER MASTER ML360R | CASE: DEEPCOOL Matrexx 55 V3 ADD-RGB | PSU: GIGABYTE P850GM 80+ GOLD | SDD: CRUCIAL MX500 250GB |

So your suggestion is to downgrade a bit my processor or upgrade my graphic card? You think that using the 2060 with the 3800XT will cause problems or I can use it fine and save some money to upgrade the graphic card in the future?
