I'm currently using a Ryzen 9 5900X paired with a Radeon 6700XT and I'm considering upgrading to a 5060Ti with 16GB. I've heard there might be about a 5% bottleneck, but I'm not sure if that's significant enough to pass on the upgrade. Also, if you think this isn't a worthwhile upgrade, what other GPUs would be better while avoiding bottlenecks?

Honestly, I wouldn't stress too much about those bottleneck calculators. They often give misleading info. Just go for the GPU you really want and enjoy your rig! If it were me, I'd look at getting an RTX 5070 or RX 9070 instead, especially if you're aiming for a 1440p monitor.
Thanks for the advice! I'm leaning towards the 5060Ti for now. Just to make sure, I have a 650W PSU—should I consider upgrading that?
