I'm looking for some advice regarding my PC build. I'm using a combination of a 1080p monitor and a 1440p monitor, primarily for CPU-intensive games. Here's my PCPartPicker list: https://de.pcpartpicker.com/list/D2qMkf. My main concern is whether my current GPU might be bottlenecking my performance. Should I consider upgrading to the RTX 5070? Any insights would be greatly appreciated!

I think you're in good shape with your current setup! I've got a 9060 XT, and it's plenty powerful for 1440p gaming. If you're looking for an upgrade, I recommend the Ryzen 7 7800X3D; its improved 3D VCache really boosts CPU performance in most games. That's definitely something to consider if your budget allows.
Just to clarify, your suggestion is to go for the Ryzen 7 7800X3D alongside the RX 9060 XT 16GB?
If you're into competitive gaming, I’d suggest leaning towards an NVIDIA GPU since it has features like Reflex 2 that can really help with response times. It depends on your focus, though!

So you believe the Ryzen 7 7700 and RX 9060 XT (16GB) is a solid choice?
