1080p should serve me well in several years. 

1440p is not too demanding for me but I'm not playing a lot of AAA games, only play like apex Warzone valorant etc. 

4k is just too demanding to play like next 2 years buying new video to keep 4k 60fps in games especially AAA games. 

As for upgrading the gpu, I was not intend to do it because I might as well keep it as a secondary pc and build a new one that time. This is just my plan. Any comments? 

Then you might as well save some money and go with a Ryzen 7 3700X or a Intel Core i7-10700K. 

Gaming at 1080p 240hz, Video Editing, Content Creation, Streaming and Future Games too. 

 

 

Ryzen 9 3900X

Lian Li Galahad 240mm aio

X570 Aorus Pro WiFi (its has the features that I wanted so don't yell at me for buying b550 🙂

32gb 3200mhz CL16 ram

RTX 3060 Ti 

Cooler Master V750 Gold V2 White 

4000D Airflow 

 

I9 10850k 

Lian Li Galahad 240mm aio

Z490 Aorus Pro Ax 

32gb 3200mhz CL16 ram

RTX 3060 Ti 

Cooler Master V750 Gold V2 White

4000D Airflow 

 

If this is not good, should go for Ryzen 7 3700x or i7 10700 route? 

 

Reason : No 5800x here because is $618 here in my country even overpriced than 3900x. 11 gen intel processor is around the corner but the price is something else so not considering.

For 1080p, the 3900X will take the lead here over the i9 10850K, although they may be similar in performance depending on certain tasks.

Hello again!

 

Like I said earlier....

 

3700x is your best option.

 

The 3900x and 109850k are great CPU's, but the 3700x can still you all the things you want it to do, for cheaper. Also, you have to think about bottlenecking. The i9 and Ryzen 9 are both very powerful CPU's, and the 3060 Ti is a great GPU, but it's a little underpowered for the Ryzen 9/i9. If you REALLY want a i9 or a Ryzen 9, I would recommend at least a 3070, or more preferably a 3080.

 

But if you want to pull the trigger on a Ryzen 9 or i9, I would recommend the 3900x.

Is you again, what a coincidence. 

3060 Ti is just almost 3070 performance. 

3080 is just too much for 1080p.

wrong. I have a 3060 Ti, and my friend has a 3070. Very different in 1080p. Im also not considering the 1080p. Im talking about bottlenecking. The CPU's are too good for the GPU.

How different is in 1080p. How the cpu gonna bottleneck gpu, rarely happen. Gpu mostly bottleneck by the cpu of choice?

GPU = too good

CPU = under powerful for the GPU

 

 

The CPU will not be used to its full potential.

Hi, SpiderMan 

Do you agree with the statement that MarvintheParrot said the cpus is too good for 3060 Ti and should go for 8 cores instead? 

Or do you have different perspectives

They both seem to be a bit over the edge of overkill, but if you plan on video editing/content creation, live stream, they should serve you well for the next couple of years. You'll probably be able to squeeze in a GPU upgrade down the road from a 3060 Ti and also if you plan on going with a new monitor that's at 1440 or 4k resolutions.  That would be my plan with a system like this.
