3900xt or 5900x for a new editing/gaming pc?

[KazerLight]

Hi.

I'm planning on building a new computer.

I've already got my GPU (3070 FE) and my motherboard.

However i still have my doubts about the cpu.

 

For heavy editing, streaming and eventually gaming (honestly i rarely play new games, except Minecraft with shaders lol), what's the best bang for the bucks?

I know that the 5900x is better, but it's either unavailable or double the price of a 3900xt.

Maybe a 5800x is better for me? It's the same price than the 3900xt but it seems that it performs less well with Adobe Premiere Pro.

What should I pick?

 

Thanks in advance.

Considering what your doing I’d go with the 3900XT over the 5800x, but i would try to wait 1 - 2 months for 5900x stock, if it doesn’t come back then just get a 3900xt

Depend on pricing but using this in reference 
$395|10850k. 
$485|3900X  
$550|5900X
All the options have the same price/performance ratio.
So... Depends on your budget on how high you wanna go.
Just avoid 3950, 5800 and 5950 those have worse bang for the buck ratios.
