I recently upgraded my GPU to a 9070xt, which has been fantastic! However, I'm contemplating upgrading my motherboard and CPU as well. Most games run smoothly, but I've experienced some lag and stuttering in 'Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2'. Is it worth upgrading my CPU now, or should I hold off for a while?

While your Intel i7-11700K is still usable, you might be hitting some CPU bottlenecks. If you really want to get the most out of your new 9070xt, consider upgrading to a faster CPU for better performance in demanding games.
I play 'Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2' with an i7-11700K and a 4070Ti and it runs smoothly at 4K on max settings, so it's a bit odd that you're experiencing lag. Maybe it's not just the CPU?

Yeah, I wonder if it's something else besides the CPU. I'll look into it.
