People often emphasize 3700x while you focus on 3900x. It seems like hitting 3700x might lead to disappointment no matter how strong its performance is. If you're living at home with minimal expenses, go all in. Choose the 3900x (or the 4900x when it comes out) because once you leave home, reality sets in and it becomes harder to defend the "good" aspects.
I'm 16 and haven't thought about paying bills before. I probably won't upgrade for at least five years. Adding another $200 to the CPU seems fine to me. Maybe I'll go for the 4900x then.
