I managed to get a decent 2080 graphics card and have been using it for some time now (previously had a GTX 1080). I’m starting to think my Ryzen 7 1700x might be limiting performance. My frame rates are dropping in newer games, though I’m not using the GPU heavily. Could upgrading the CPU help?

The CPU is slowing down performance.

Consider upgrading to a more powerful CPU like an Intel Core i5 or i7, or a newer generation such as i9 or Ryzen 7 for better performance.

I suggest considering a modern update to enhance performance and features.

Available configurations include 3600x, 3700x, 3800x or similar XT versions. You may want the 8-core models, though this depends on cost and stock. Make sure your motherboard supports them; otherwise a 2700x might be more suitable.
