I upgraded from a RTX 3070 to a 9070xt and the performance improvement is smaller than I expected
My CPU is a 3900x I wonder if it's holding me back
I'm playing at 1440p
#How much is my cpu holding me back?

Meh, probably not as much as you expect.
The 3900x is still a good CPU
If you are super worried about it then maybe upgrade to a 5800X3D if you are in a good financial situation.
Ultimately though, you are at 1440p which directly leads to more strain on the GPU so you are probably good.

offen if gpu not close to 100% means cpu limited
