Hey folks, I've got a setup with an RTX 2070 Super, a Ryzen 5 3600X, MSI B450 Gaming Plus motherboard, and 16 GB of RAM running at 1080p. I'm considering an upgrade to an i9-10850K, which I can get for €150. Will this boost my gaming performance, particularly since games like Darktide struggle to hit 60 fps on my current setup? Thanks for your insights!

You'll definitely need a different motherboard for that CPU. A better option might be to look at Ryzen 5600 or 5700X, as they perform better in games and are compatible with your existing setup.
The i9-10850K is about 20% faster than your Ryzen 5 3600X. However, you'll need to buy a new motherboard since the current one won't support it. That's an important consideration!
Thanks for the heads-up!
