Upgrade hint

Hey, guys. 

 

I actually have a 5600x 32g ram 3600 and a 6700xt 12gb vram.

After premieres's last upgrade, I felt it a bit heavier to my system.

 

What upgrade would you guys choose? 

 

1. Upgrade CPU to 9900x and keep the 6700xt;

 

2. Upgrade both CPU to 5900xt and GPU to a 7900xtx;

 

Or, still:

3. Keep the CPU and upgrade GPU to the 7900xtx.

 

I just use it for premiere, editing in 4k slog 8bit and for obs in lives. Sometimes, gaming in 4k.

I'd add more RAM, but .... looking to see what others say.

I have no more avaliable slots in my MOBO. So, maybe the upgrade from the CPU is the way to go. Keep the RX 6700XT and upgrade from the Ryzen 5600x + 4x8gb 3600 to Ryzen 9900X + 2x32gb 5600.

That sounds like a decent "up" ... both more CPU oomph with double the cores, and double the RAM ...
