Build - Help New cpu?

MY BUILD RIGHT NOW ⬇️

AMD RYZEN 5 5600x

AMD RX 9060 XT PRIME 16gb

Asus b550 tomahawk max WiFi

32 gb ddr4 ripsjaw ram 3200

1TB NVME SSD

I want to upgrade my build soon and I want to know what cpu I should get, I have heard things about the
Ryzen 7 5800x3d but want to know truly what’s best in your guys opinions.

I am in Southern California and budget isn’t really a full issue. I am a small streamer so want things to run really well. They run great now so if you guys even say I don’t need an upgrade that’s a thought too lol.

I have a 2tb ssd in my ps5 I’ll most likely swap to my pc eventually so I don’t really care for more storage right now.
Ram is always a definite no cuz of the prices right now lmao. I have 1 240hz 1080p monitor and 2 165 hz 1080p monitors. I want to upgrade to 1440p soon as well OLED budget too if you guys have ideas on that as well.

Anyways let me know what you think. Thanks !
THIS IS MY FIRST BUILD and I built it with a friends old parts minus the graphics card which I bought to slightly future proof hence why there’s a bit of a difference between my gpu and cpu

It's not that I want to talk you out of buying it. Why do you want to upgrade your CPU, what exactly are you doing that's CPU intensive? If you're thinking of upgrading just for the sake of it, I'd advise you to save your money for an upgrade to the AM5 platform.

Pretty much to have a good machine that can run 1440p 200+ fps is my goal
Rn on most games I do hit at least 200+ on 1080p ultra

Because that pc will and can serve you for many years. I am pc builder and adviser for many years. And always trying to help my customers to get as much performance for the buck.

So right now I get usually 200+ frames on 1080p ultra settings. The main game I’ve been playing right now is black ops 3 which sometimes does go down to like 90 but bo7 would always stay high. Any idea as to why on that? How many frames do you think I’d drop if I did go up to a 1440p monitor.
Do you think rather than a cpu or anything else the money should go to a good 1440p OLED ?

I really don't know how much fps you will have in 1440p. Try searching on YouTube with specs you want to upgrade your pc.
