Specs:
RTX 2060 super
Current cpu i7 - 5820k OC to 4.5 ghz
Mothercard will be upgraded when cpu is x99 gaming 5
DDR4 16gb 3200
PSU 850W

I’m mainly thinking about upgrading my cpu because I think it is bottlenecking. I will be upgrading my mothercard when I upgrade my cpu and I might be getting ddr5 ram but I need to know if it will be worth the upgrade

#

thanks do you think ddr5 will be worth upgrading too?

#

you can’t use ddr5 on the 3600 or 9600k

#

but if you were to upgrade to one of the newer cpus then yes
