You're thinking about upgrading to an RTX 3070 and wondering if your Ryzen 5 3600 could slow things down. Let's break it down!
yep. a 2080ti (for refrense) is bottlenecked by the 3600 quite a bit at 1080p, so the 30790 will probably b pretty similar.
CPU model: Ryzen 5 3600 GPU: RX 5600XT System board: B550-A RAM: 32GB at 3600MHz @CL18 Storage: 500GB NVMe SSD & 1TB HDD Case: NZXT H500i PSU rating: 650W, Bronze certification.
When gaming at 60Hz, your monitor becomes the limiting factor. Your CPU and GPU won’t be fully utilized. Unless you push yourself hard without V/G-sync for extreme screen tearing, upgrading later might be better. For a future upgrade, 100Hz+3600 will likely be the next bottleneck, but the Ryzen 5000 series offers a good path. Your Ryzen should handle 4K at 60Hz without issues.
