I recently upgraded from an RTX 3070 Ti to a 5070 Asus TUF, but surprisingly, I'm getting the same FPS in Marvel Rivals using my previous settings. This is baffling since the game is known to be GPU-intensive. My PC specs are as follows: RTX 5070 GPU, Ryzen 7 5700X 3D CPU, 16GB RAM (3600MHz CL16), MSI B550 Tomahawk motherboard, and a Seasonic Focus GX-650 Gold Plus PSU. The GPU is connected using two 6+2 pin cables provided with the card. Can anyone figure out what might be going wrong?

Have you tried using DDU to completely uninstall your old drivers and then reinstalling the latest Nvidia drivers? This can sometimes solve weird performance issues after an upgrade.
Are you absolutely sure you were GPU bottlenecked before? It sounds like you might be hitting a CPU bottleneck now. What are your GPU and CPU usage stats looking like?
Before, the 3070 Ti was at 99% GPU usage while my CPU was around 60-65%. Now with the 5070, I'm seeing the GPU at 50-60% and the CPU at 45-50%. So it could be a bottleneck issue.
What resolution and graphics settings are you using? Also, make sure your RAM is set to XMP mode. Sometimes, little tweaks in settings can lead to big performance differences.
I'm playing at 1080p with everything on low, DLSS on ultra performance, and Nvidia Reflex enabled.

I already did both uninstall and reinstall. Still having the same problem.
