I'm considering an upgrade for my gaming setup. Right now, I've got an Intel i7-11700f processor, an RTX 4060 GPU, 32 GB of DDR4 RAM, an Intel stock cooler, and a H510 motherboard. I'm wondering if it would be worth it to upgrade, especially to hit 1440p resolution. Prices for Intel and Nvidia parts in Italy seem reasonable. What do you all think?

First off, are you actually feeling dissatisfied with your current performance? Most people won't recommend going Intel for gaming, especially now unless the price is unbeatable. If everything runs smoothly for you, maybe hold off on a big upgrade!
The cost is similar to the 9700X, but Intel can outshine AMD in productivity. If gaming performance is what you want, I get that. My competitive games run at about 120 fps on medium, but I do notice the difference in AAA games. Just think about what you truly want!
