I've recently upgraded my setup to include a 5070ti along with an i7-12700k processor. While playing Battlefield 6 on ultra settings with DLSS, I'm only hitting an average of 95-100 fps. Could this be a CPU bottleneck issue? Or might there be other factors at play? Also, I'm still using DDR4 RAM since I haven't upgraded to DDR5 yet, and I have 16GB of DDR4. Just to clarify, I'm gaming at 1440p. Any insights would be appreciated!

You might want to look into how to check your GPU utilization during game sessions. It's key to know if your GPU is struggling. If it's underutilized, then it might be the CPU holding you back. But if it's running at a high percentage, it could be something else entirely.
First off, check your GPU utilization while playing. That'll give you a better idea if your GPU is being fully utilized or if there's a bottleneck somewhere else. I have a similar setup with the 12700k and 5070ti, and I usually get around 150 fps at 3440x1440 without any issues, especially if I disable the E cores and set my ring clock to 48x. If your GPU isn't being utilized correctly, that could definitely cause the low FPS you're experiencing.
