I'm new to building PCs and could use some guidance. Right now, I have a Gainward RTX 3050 (6GB) and an AMD Ryzen 5 5600GT. I'm looking to upgrade to a Zotac GeForce RTX 4070 (12GB) and an AMD Ryzen 5 9600X. I chose the 3050 because it was significantly cheaper at the time. My motherboard is a B550 DS3H AC. Given this setup, am I likely to encounter any issues? My budget is pretty tight, so I'm not in a position to swap out other components. Also, I have a 900p monitor for now, but I want to get a 120Hz 1080p monitor in the near future. Any advice would be helpful!

You might want to consider checking the prices for a Ryzen 7 5700X for a potential upgrade. It’s fairly easy to drop in with just a BIOS update, which could give you a nice boost.
I appreciate the suggestion! Though, the price difference in my currency is pretty significant.
