I'm considering upgrading from my RTX 3060 Ti to a 5070 Ti for playing Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, but I'm currently using an i7-12700F processor. I've heard I should upgrade my 600W power supply to an 800W, but I'm unsure if my CPU will bottleneck the performance. I primarily game on an ultrawide monitor at 3440x1440 resolution. Any insights on this?

The CPU will handle the GPU just fine. You'll have minimal bottlenecking, so no worries there.
As long as you're gaming at 1440p or 4K, you shouldn't experience any significant bottlenecking. At 1080p, you might see a bit of CPU bottleneck, but probably no more than 20% performance loss. You're good to go!
It feels like some are stuck in 2018, right? There’s DLSS now, so while there might be some bottleneck, it really depends on the game.
I play at 3440x1440 too! Also, do you have any recommendations for a PSU that'll handle this setup well?
