No, it wasn't.

Hey there, I see you're dealing with some performance hiccups on your gaming setup. With your RX 6900 XT and 5600X paired with a 1440p screen, you're experiencing lower FPS and GPU utilization in CPU-heavy games like Warzone and Rainbow Six Siege. It sounds like the CPU might be limiting performance. You mentioned hearing that upgrading to a 5900X could help, but you're unsure if it's worth canceling the order. Consider testing the new GPU in a controlled environment to see if you notice any improvement before making a decision.
I also attempted to reinstall drivers several times, but the power plan remains high performance.
For gaming purposes, the 5900X isn't worth it. I upgraded myself from a 3700X, and maybe I'll gain a few extra frames here and there. It was purchased for productivity, though. Having more than 8 cores is completely unnecessary for gaming and will remain so for a long time.
