I'm currently running a 5800X3D with a 3060 graphics card. With newer games like BF6 and Grounded2, I've noticed my GPU really struggles, and I'm relying on DLSS to keep up. I'm considering whether I should upgrade to AM5 or just stick with AM4 and invest in a better graphics card. If I go the AM4 route, what's the best GPU I can get without hitting a bottleneck?

The best GPU for you really depends on your gaming resolution and the types of games you play. If you're gaming at 1440p, you could technically install something as powerful as a 5090 without major issues, thanks to the decent performance of the 5800X3D. But if you’re looking at 1080p with competitive titles, you might start encountering bottlenecks around the RTX 5070 Ti. With other games, even something like a GTX 1050 could bottleneck with very CPU-intensive tasks, so it really varies!
I play at 2560 x 1440 with a 270Hz monitor and only started noticing issues recently with the latest games!
