Upgrade advice for CPU and storage

[slider0274]

Budget (including currency): $200-$300 USD

Country: US

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: PUBG, Anno 1800, Jedi: Survivor, Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga, Davinci Resolve, Gimp, Inkscape

Other details: 

• CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600 3.6 GHz 6-Core Processor
• Motherboard: MSI B450 TOMAHAWK MAX ATX AM4 Motherboard
• Memory: G.Skill Ripjaws V 16 GB (4 x 8 GB) DDR4-3600 CL16 Memory
• Storage: Crucial P1 500 GB M.2-2280 PCIe 3.0 X4 NVME Solid State Drive
• Storage: Seagate Barracuda Compute 2 TB 3.5" 7200 RPM Internal Hard Drive
• Video Card: EVGA XC3 ULTRA GAMING GeForce RTX 3070 8 GB Video Card
• Case: Fractal Design Meshify C ATX Mid Tower Case
• Case Fans: Cougar TURBINE CF-T12SB4 120mm Hyperspin Bearing Case Fan (Black - 4 pack)
• Power Supply: Corsair RM850x (2018) 850 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply

I'd like to upgrade my CPU and my main system storage as intelligently as possible. I'd like to replace the Crucial P1 500 GB drive with a 2TB M.2 NVME drive for my operating system (I'll get an NVME to USB adapter to continue to use the Crucial P1 drive). As far as the CPU goes, any advice would be great. My main monitor is 1440p.

What cooler would you suggest for the 5800x or the 5700x3d? I just have the cooler that came with the 3600 now.

a Thermalright Peerless assassin 120 se or phantom spirit will both be good.

I'd suggest you getting an Ryzen 7 5700X3D and more storage, like a 2TB m.2 SSD, the best budget and fast option would be the Kingston NV3 2TB or 1TB and keep the rest of the parts for now. Plus the 5700X3D will be enough for your future upgrade, since the it runs the 5090 comfortably at 1440p, any GPU you may upgrade to will be sufficient! Happy gaming
