Looking for new CPU and Motherboard

Hey guys!
So, im looking to upgrade my CPU (and therefor Motherboard(?)) but I want to keep the rest, as much as possible. 
Im ready to switch from Intel if needed. Hit me with your best solutions.. Both in price range and best-choices.

As you can see, I probably dont get the power from the GPU I could.
Thanks!

Budget (including currency): ~600(?)

Country: Denmark

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Escape from Tarkov, Helldivers, Simulation/Management games.
Adobe programs, since im a designer.

Current Setup:
MB
: Asus ROG Strix H370-F Gaming
CPU: Intel Core i7, 8700K 3.7, 6 core
Cooler: Noctua NH-D15
Mem: 4 x 8 GB Ripjaws V 16 GB, DDR4-3200
Pow: Corsair Hx750 plat
GPU: MSI Gaming X TRIO RTX 2080 ti 11gb.
Storage: Samsung 970 M2, 1 TB.

Best upgrade would be this.

This works really well together and its the fastest gaming CPU on the market right now.

I have personally used this combo in a few systems 🙂

Maybe a bit over what you are willing to pay.

The conversion from USD to Danish Kroner is a bit weird.

You can change the 7800X3D to a 7600 to save a bit of money.

Let me know if its too expensive and we can adjust going from there.

You can't find a better gaming CPU than the 7800X3D right now and the motherboard and RAM works really well together.

Totally understandable. As mentioned, nothing is faster than the 7800X3D for gaming so the 2080 Ti will have all the room to breathe and perform at its fullest.

Check this video out.  I timed it at the gaming benchmarks

The 14900k is the top dog from Intel but it costs 4400 danish and its not faster in gaming and you can't really cool the 14900k even with the NH-D15.

The 7800X3D is super easy to cool as well.

Yes, the 7800X3D only uses 25w more than your 8700k at 100% load!  Its extremely efficient.😄

Its just an incredible CPU.

It maxes out at 120w at 100% load while the 14900k maxes out at 253watts 😮

8700k uses 95w at full load.
