I have a gaming setup with an ASUSTeK G10DK motherboard, an AMD Ryzen 5 5600 processor, and an RTX 4060 graphics card. My RAM is 16 GB total (2x8 GB DDR4-3200), and I'm using a WDC PC SN530 SSD. I usually game at 1080p and currently play Rainbow Six Siege competitively, but I only get around 170 fps on low settings. Since I have a 240Hz monitor, I'd like to know what I should upgrade to achieve stable 250 fps. Any suggestions?

Honestly, the 9060XT seems like the right choice for your setup. It balances price and performance well without bottlenecking with your older motherboard. You could expect a 25-30% increase in fps across most games.
If you can afford it, consider getting a 9070. That should provide a significant improvement in your frame rate.
I think the best option for you would be to upgrade to a 9060XT 16 GB. It should give you a decent boost in fps for R6.
But do you think my CPU might be the real bottleneck? I’m seeing my GPU maxed out at 92% while my CPU is just at 50%.
