 My comp just died . time to build a new one.  Ryzen i think got about 1,800 $    Any idea would be great thanks for taking the time to help a Idiot .....

Ok, start with what you got. Power supply, keyboard and mouse and a case, right?
Sad you can't wait for the newest AMD.

I suggest a CPU that will do work for you. The price is great right now.

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5900X,
Motherboard: X570 for sure. Asus X570 is a great option.
RAM: What do you have as left over, 2x8GB 3200MHz? Anything lower or 4x4GB, get an upgrade and 3600 C17 
Videocard: Also, what do you have.

Feed the info

Oh yeah btw, you could also do a 5800X3D (not a 5800X). That added 3D cache, works like a charm. 

I would not get an Intel platform this year.

IDK I am an Intel and Nvidia guy..amd just never cut it for me

the 5900X (387.00)is not much faster and cost 100.00 more than the Intel i7-11700K (267.00)

Xray is right i have not tested the 12th gen new intel processors. they changed alot on the core layout...kind of what amd does....i would steer clear or them

you can get a 3080TI evga 12GB g card around 1k (919.00)

that leaves about 600 for mobo, ram, ssd drive and a decent 750W power supply...you could get away with a 600 but WHY  LOL

assuming you can reuse the case that's tight but doable

all the prices I found are from amazon and I currently run the above setup for over a year now on an asus rog strix mobo and have no complaints the I7 keeps on chuggin even after hours of gaming. I run my rig on Air cooling anymore

the power control on todays pc's you don't need overclocking, fancy water coolers and hi heat to get an edge

Thanks for the ideas.. ill look it then TY

I was always having Intel, till 9th GEN. 10th and 11th, was not a big gain in games. I managed to get my 5900X cheap. 
Could go for a 5800X3D later. That chip is a huge step. The new AM5 motherboards comes out this month if you can wait a bit.

......anything else getting EOL this year. Meaning, no upgrade for the future. 100% for the AM4 motherboards and when the 13th GEN of Intel comes out. Those boards are done too.

Go look for a cheap second hand AM4 motherboard and grab a 5800X3D new. You will thank me later. Check out Gamers Nexus review or Jay2cents or Hardware Unboxed about that chip. 

Please watch this: Price and Performance.

Give it a few weeks before buying, as AMD is dropping its new platform on the 27th & the current architecture will be considerably cheaper.

I for sure look forward to that. Looks good, very good. Next year, they add the 3D cache back on some models again. 
 

Btw @Daxx68 for only shipment costs, you can borrow a motherboard from me. Just DM/PM me and we handle that. Your budget is enough that you could even wait a bit. By that you don't have to rush anything and can look around. EZ.

Get a 58 or 5900x...depending on how much multithreaded programs you run.

In addition to new chips, totally new platform with new architecture,  ddr5, stacked memory on die, USB 5.0. I think, the ability of the cpu to use the GPU's ram if needed (if it's an AMD card, substantial increase in cpu clock rate...something on the order of 800 mhz...gonna run kinda hot with that bump in tdp...all the newest advances...

  OK this is what i got so far.

 

AMD Ryzen 7 5800x

Gigabyte X570S Aorus Elite ax atx am4 Motherboard

Corsair  RM850 Power supply

EVGA 2060  My old card will get new 1 soon

Corsair 400D  Mid Tower Case

 

THANKS to everyone for the help...

Get a decent CPU cooler. This is the best air cooler that you can get but it is quite large. https://www.amazon.com/Noctua-NH-D15-chromax-Black-Dual-Tower-Cooler/dp/B07Y87YHRH/ref=asc_df_B07Y87YHRH/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=416652333997&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=611416595840285694&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9006085&hvtargid=pla-825992388602&psc=1&tag=&ref=&adgrpid=100759324064&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvadid=416652333997&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=611416595840285694&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9006085&hvtargid=pla-825992388602

Wait, you have the 5800X, not the latest 5800X3D? I hope you have the 3D version. Even though you can overclock a 5800X, it never reaches the thrust that the 5800X3D does. Right now, that is still in the top 3 charts, because of the cache it has. 

Below, the screenshot, is from the video I posted. You would enjoy the 5800X3D for many years to come,
before it gets too 'slow';
