I've been considering switching from the 1660 Ti to a 2080 Pro, but I'm concerned my Ryzen 5 2600 might limit performance.

Based on the games you play and the display settings, 1440p/4K should work well. Upgrading to 240fps at 1080p in Apex might cause issues with the 2600.

Why would you take that step? It could really slow things down for the 2080, so I suggest you aim for at least 3600 and then upgrade your GPU.

It won't slow down unless you're aiming for 300 fps in CS:GO; if it's just CS:GO, the 2600 performs quite well.

All processors will become a bottleneck when paired with that GPU, mainly depending on the game. If you're playing CSGO, you'll see minimal GPU usage—just simple as that unless you're pushing at 8xMSAA and other extreme settings. Titles like World War Z at 2600 will comfortably utilize an RTX 2080S. The lowest spec needed for this card is 1440P; you won't fully leverage its capabilities at 1080P, just as with the 2070S and 5700-XT, which are designed for 1440P or higher.
