Should I upgrade my CPU?
You're considering switching from an RTX 2060 Super to an RTX 4070 Ti while keeping your Ryzen 5 3700X. It depends on your workload—general tasks won't be affected, but heavy gaming or rendering might still feel limited without a faster CPU.
Hello, The RTX could slow down by around 50% in performance. That’s a significant bottleneck you’ll likely see in games.
It would slow things down significantly. I switched to an RTX 4080 and tried a [email protected] all-core overclock, but it fell short. Frequent microstutters kept appearing and the frame rate stayed low. Once I upgraded to a 7700x, my average FPS jumped by about 30-35% (in Hell Let Loose it rose from 110 to over 200 fps) and the stuttering disappeared completely.
I expect a resolution of 5800x3d. For the GPU, I strongly recommend getting a 7900xt or even an XTX if they aren’t too costly locally, since they offer significantly better performance at a lower price.
The Jedi survivor was meant to avoid this, just as all other games should not.
There’s a significant slowdown with that combination, unfortunately. I suggest the AMD 5800x3d from AMD. You won’t need to upgrade your motherboard if you choose this option. However, I don’t advise going for a 7000-series AMD CPU or any Intel CPU, as those might require many modifications. Even with a 7000-series AMD CPU or an Intel CPU, you’d still need to replace at least some components.
You mentioned earlier that this should assist. Here’s the revised version:
What I just said seems to align with what you need. Let me know if you’d like further clarification!
