CPU Bottleneck follow up

Just wanted to follow up on my previous post about my Core i7-8700 giving me low FPS with a RTX 5070.

I upgraded to a Ryze 9800x3D and can happily say my FPS has more than doubled which is fantastic.

From 34fps to 82fps on Ultra DLSS quality without Framegen. And from 61fps to 138fps Ultra DLSS quality either Framegen on.

So if any of you are considering upgrading your CPU then I can say it will definitely make a difference to your playing experience.

Thanks for everyone’s input!
