Video Card Upgrade, how bad will my bottleneck be?
Looking for some advice on a potential upgrade. I wanted to do a full overall, but RAM is insane right now.
Current Specs
Video Card: MSI 2080 Super 8GB
Motherboard: MPG Z390 Edge
CPU: i7-9700KF
RAM: 32GB DDR4 3600
PSU: Coolermaster Masterwatt 750 (Bronze)
Cooler: NH-D15 (Noctuna)
Screen: ROG PG348Q (1440p)
If I were to only upgrade my video card to say a 5070 TI or something similar.
How bad would the CPU bottleneck be?
Would it make sense to upgrade my PSU to something more modern as well?
Am i dumb for doing this or just wait and do a full upgrade all at once?
After years with my 2080 Super I'm finally starting to see its age.
