In principle, I plan to wait and buy a new computer for a new generation, so that it will be relevant for as long as possible. What I have today is pretty old and it's also one of the reasons I'm waiting ... Now, is there any chance that by the end of 2020 it will be possible to buy Ryzen's next generation processors + new boards and video cards? I also realized that just a year after AMD was going to spend a new generation with another resident, and probably would come with DDR5 as well. The thing is that the DDR5 will also be a new transition and I am looking for this significant transition. Today I have a DDR3, not is it that every year there is a new DDR on the market. what do you think?

Consider waiting until the end of Q3 2020 for Zen. Otherwise, opt for a Zen 2 CPU.

What model of PC do you have? Are you still happy with its performance? If yes, keep using it and hold off until at least the next generation arrives. Even if DDR5 is released, not all CPUs and motherboards will support it right away. I believe DDR5 might get adopted around 2022. Right now, things could take longer because shortages are likely due to factory closures in China, which affects many workers.
