Hi I have the following system I just use it for gaming and watching series.

AMD Ryzen 5 2600x
Asus Rog Strix X470-F Gaming
HyperX Predator DDR4 RGB 16GB (8GB x 2) 3200MHz
Gamdias Chione M1A 240R Liquid Cooler
Sabrent ROCKET 512GB M.2 (2280) NVMe PCI-E 3.0
CM 1000w PSU
MSI RX 570 Armor 8GB OC Edition
Dell 24' 165Hz Gaming Monitor

Got a couple of questions :X3:

Should I upgrade or sell it?

If I decide to upgrade do I just upgrade the GPU or do I go for a upgrade combo as well with new CPU?

Got some mixed input from friends so not sure what I should do. I know there is more knowledgeable people on here :)
 
Upgrade CPU and GPU maybe? Everything else is still perfect.

CPU should be easy, latest bios and you can get yourself a 5600x or similar. Fits right in, nothing else needs replacing.
GPU, give it a few months until new cards are out. The current ones' price will drop even further

Might just need to update the bios to the latest first before changing the CPU

Or they won't, depending on the exchange rate.
 
5800x3d and GPU should do, the GPU being more important. The rest of the system is fine.

And Nvidia’s distribution/supply chain manipulation.

Money money money!!!

Is there even history of new cards prices falling on new generation launch?
2nd hand for sure

There is, but it's marginal at best
