It's hard to recommend something without a proper budget, but among the mentioned CPU options, avoid the 5800X due to temperature issues. 

The 5900X is strong, I have one myself, but you likely won't need the performance of a 5900X to play the games you mentioned.

If budget is limited, depending how tight it is, get a 5600X or 5700X3D. If budget isn't an issue, get the 5900X or better yet, since you're also upgrading the motherboard, a Ryzen 7000-series CPU.

Wanting to upgrade my processor and motherboard 

 

Thinking motherboard - gigabyte B550M Aorus Elite AX

Processor - Ryzen 9 5900x or R7 5700x or R7 5700X3D or R7 5800X

Budget is around 34k INR

And have put 10k away for motherboard 

So for processor 24k is budget 

Not going to AM5 cause then I have to upgrade ram also to ddr5?

I want to use all my old things just upgrading my motherboard and processor
