sorted byload task manager. go to your fave game. play it. alt tab and check task manager
if your GPU is 100% then a faster cpu will make no difference
if one of your CPU cores is 100% and GPU <100% Then it would (edited)
7950x3D and 7900x3D are next week.
Otherwise you'd be spending close to two hundred after reselling your current CPU on minimal gains that could've gone towards a newer, more futureproofed platform (AM5) and or a new/better graphics card. (edited)
old am4
old ddr4
old 8 cores when 12+ cores can be found on new 12th and 13th gen intel platforms
will be left behind in future windows updates like old ryzens and old intels have been left behind
Escape from tarkov is one game I'd like to get improvements on and that's a CPU intensive game apparently (edited)
This one uses 6700xt which is not too far off 3070. You will get noticeable gains but you may get similar experience with upgrading to something like 5600x which is far cheaper. (edited)
If you're doing a fresh build, go AM5 though. (edited)
AM4 lasting as long as it did was due to market pressure. Just look at Threadripper 3000 series. (edited)
