Hey everyone! I'm looking to upgrade my graphics card from my current RTX 3060 to something more powerful. However, I'm concerned about whether my Ryzen 5 5600x processor will limit the performance of a new card, like an RX 9070 XT or an RTX 5070. Any insights on which option would work best?

Honestly, every GPU can bottleneck to some extent depending on the situation. Just aim to buy the best card you can within your budget, and you should be fine.
If you’re deciding between the RX 9070 XT and the RTX 5070, go for the 9070 XT! It really outperforms the 5070 non-Ti, and since you're planning to upgrade to 1440p, your 5600X should handle the 9070 XT really well.
That’s good to know! I’m coming from 1080p, but I’ll be switching to 1440p shortly.
