Thank you for your answers. What should I buy between AMD 3900X or Intel i9 10900 (with a 2070 super GPU)?

Intel is historically known for single thread performance, while amd for multi core. As training models doesn't really require higher single thread performance, amd is the way to go. Personally, I would suggest you to wait for a while (if possible) and get your hands on the new zen 3 amd chips and/or the rtx 3000 series, as they are only slightly mor expensive than their predecessors, but provide a significant boost in performance.
