The Ryzen 4000 is expected to arrive by the end of this year, offering some longevity but with rumors of high costs. You could also consider waiting until 2021 for the AM5 socket release, which promises a longer lifespan, or hold off until Intel introduces a 10nm CPU around mid-2021—about nine months away. I’m in a similar situation but have a GTX 1080. If you’re hoping for major hardware upgrades, consider getting a 4790k overclocked for $150 and be patient. For a quicker upgrade, aim to purchase the Ryzen 4000 when it launches this year.
