5800x + B550 from Amazon at around $350
64GB RAM looks not necessary. Probably you can consider upgrade to DDR4 CL16 3600MHz 16GB or 32GB @around $150, or save some money no upgrade.
NVME SSD? maybe another $100
GPU, hard to tell, wait till GTC to make a decision. But you still have at least $500 left, even enough for a 4070
Thx for all the feedback!

Nice upgrade if you're on AM4 though.
The things I want to keep are my:
1. 550W Platinum fanless power supply
2. Case (Fractal design R5)
3. My Noctua NH-U14S fan cooler.
Things I should replace:
1. (current) 32 > 64GB of RAM
2. Processor
3. Mobo
4. Graphics card (GTX970 > ______??______)
What do you guys think? Get new gen or last year's? Trying to keep a budget of $1200

2)If you are running VMs. you probably want more cores. Probably worth getting a 5900X or an i7-12700K for $100 more for 4 more cores. The Micro Center Ryzen 9 3900X for a few bucks more than this is a fantastic deal for productivity if your gaming desires are modest.

A computer with this CPU fully loaded on all threads but with no GPU load will probably draw around 200W from the wall.
Example review [trustedreviews.com] showing 189.5W power draw from the wall when running Cinebench.
This GPU review [techspot.com] shows a list of total system power consumption (assuming from the wall?) where you can run even an RTX 3090.
Note that this will vary if you run something that loads both CPU and GPU at the same time for extended periods of time. Also, anything overclocked can add significant loads.
