CPU choice

Which cpu should I go for, a 9900KS with no further evolution on the platform expected, but darn good, or ryzen 3900x with zen3 less than a year away?

Both are great for Ashes.

As long as you have a dual-core CPU or better (I play on a G3258 - not kidding) with a decent discrete GPU (nVidia GTX 1050Ti) or an Core i3 or AMD equivalent with on-GPU graphics that supports DX11 or DX12, you can play Ashes with no issues.  The beefier CPUs and GPUs are for those that insist on multiple AI or mixed games;  what I outlined above is solid for human vs. a single AI opponent.

Every year you will find new GPUs and CPUs

Just get whatever you like
10th gen from intel is coming out or came out
AMD is kicking ass nowadays,

 

both CPUs are kind of on an equal speed and specs.
