 I was thinking of going to an Ryzan 9900x or 9800x3d (9900x is cheaper on amazon atm) but confused on the motherboard, I have evetything else apart from ram but got 32gb 6000 cl30 ready to buy. 4070ti i have too. But also atm i have 12600k. But like i said thinking going amd. Any suggests to changes of anything is welcome too.

If your main focus will be gaming, stick to the 9800X3D, the 3D V-cache mod packs a punch.

For the mobo, any with a B650 chipset from a reputable brand would do - I recall Hardware Unboxed has a video with specific recommendations for each chipset.

I've gotten to know some stuff, but am far from omniscient, so don't take my advice as gospel and wait for other opinions - I just like throwing in my two cents when I can.

In that range I'd try to slot an X3D chip even older gen.
