Hello,
First off, I see alot of help in this forum on this topic and I much appreciate those posters taking the time to help similar posters like me in setting up their PC. I've read over those other threads and it has helped me in my research but I'd still appreciate feedback and recommendation on my specific case.
My current PC and monitors:
CPU: Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-2500K CPU @ 3.30GHz, 3301 Mhz, 4 Core(s), 4 Logical Processor(s)
GPU: 2 GPUs (NVIDIA GeForce GTS 450) and (AMD Radeon HD 5450)
SSD: 250 GB
RAM: 16 GB
Monitors: Dell 30" at 2560x1600, View Sonic 24" at 1920x1080, and two smaller inverted monitors at 1600x900
I'm looking to build or purchase a CPU that improves performance for poker as if you read prior posts from me I'm having issues while playing on multiple sites, mainly because of the CPU usage from the WPN software. My CPU frequently maxes out while playing more than 6+ tables on their network.
The computer and monitors listed above are about 10 years old now. I don't mind spending up to say ~$2K on a new system and I can pass this older one onto my kids or wife. I would not be gaming on this computer other than poker but I am looking for it to support all standard software over say the course of the next five to ten years without being boggled down with CPU issues such as the one mentioned above.
If possible I'd like to also be able to run my current monitors on the new system for awhile before upgrading at a later date to better monitors.
I'm located in Thailand so import and customs plays a role in the purchasing of this product. I was putting together something on here:

I was going to pair these two for a start.......
Asus TUF B450M-PLus Gaming motherboard
with
AMD Ryzen 5 3600X with Wraith Spire Cooler CPU
Honestly though I'm a bit overwhelmed with all the information online and this was just one suggestion I found online for a good value gaming pair up. I thought I'd come here and make this post because I'm looking specifically for this system as a poker desktop first. Thanks in advance.
