I'm looking to replace my faulty RX 6800 with an RTX 5070 and I'm wondering if my Ryzen 7 5700x will be a good combo or if it will cause any bottleneck issues. I'm a bit anxious to make the purchase because I'm worried about rising prices, so any advice would really help!

If you're gaming at 1440p or higher, it'll perform great! Higher resolutions generally reduce CPU bottlenecking.
Yes, in CPU-heavy games like Space Marine 2 and Hogwarts Legacy at 1440p, you’ll likely face some bottleneck. Just wanted to set realistic expectations! You'll still see an improvement over the RX 6800, though.
I've got an RTX 5070 paired with a Ryzen 5800XT at 3440x1440p, and it's a rock-solid match. You should be fine in most scenarios.
At 1440p with high graphics settings, you should be good. Just a heads up—if you want 200+ fps in demanding games like Warzone, the 5700x might struggle, maxing around 120 fps even with lowered settings.
Yeah, it's a solid pairing! I have a similar setup with a Ryzen 7 and a 4070 Super, which is pretty close to the 5070. I haven't had any bottleneck issues, and everything runs smoothly for me.
