Hey everyone! I'm contemplating an upgrade from my current RTX 3070 Ti to a newer 50 series graphics card. I have an i7 11700KF CPU and I primarily game at 1080p resolution. Do you think I'll run into significant bottleneck issues with my CPU if I switch to the RTX 5070? I'm open to getting the 5060 Ti if that's a better fit for my setup. I mostly play single-player games, including titles like Marvel Rivals and Call of Duty. Thanks a lot for your insights!

For single-player AAA games at 1080p, your CPU might often be the bottleneck. Even at 1440p, the CPU can still limit performance in many titles. If you're playing competitively or using high settings with ray tracing, the CPU might hold you back. While gaming, there will almost always be some sort of bottleneck happening.

I don’t use ray tracing either, so anything that boosts FPS for newer games at high settings is great for me! Do you really think the 5060 Ti would match better?
