I'm researching a new build for gaming since I have another machine for the productivity end of things. I'm going on the premise that you build a gaming rig around the GPU, then fit everything else around that. I'm focusing on good 1440P capability and since some of the games I enjoy are just fine at 1080p.
I suspect I could rightly upgrade the CPU but I'm just not sure.
Here's the system I'm looking at building:
Motherboard: Gigabyte X670 Aorus elite AX
CPU: Ryzen 7700X
GPU: Radeon RX 7800XT
RAM: GSkill Trident Z5 RGB Series DDr5 32GB (2x16) 6000MT/s CL28-36-36-96
OS: Windows 11 Pro
PSU: Lian Li Edge Series-850W 80 Plus Platinum
​
I'm simply trying to avoid Bottleneck issues. Let me know if you need more info.
Any guidance you could offer would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you for all the great suggestions! I'm glad to hear the help was useful.
I've adjusted a few details and thought I could handle it too with some adjustments.
I've created a new thread, no need to bring negativity.

The X3d part CPU performs excellently with MSF, delivering nearly double the FPS compared to some GPUs.
