Hi guys, looking forward to upgrading my system. Currently running on an i7-5820K (6 Cores, 12 Threads) OC'd to 4Ghz with 32Gb of RAM and a GeForce RTX 3070 card. I'm looking to upgrade my system to a Ryzen processor, new Mobo and RAM to get the most bang for the buck for no more than $500. I know my system can't max out my 3070 and hoping to get a few recommendations to a new processor, mobo and RAM to (a) get the max performance of the 3070 graphics card and (b) get as much performance as possible with the system for $500 or under. Thank you.

You COULD go am4, which'll be still a big upgrade but dead platform, blah blah or AM5 and save some more.
