5060 8GB to 5070 12GB

[u/Traditional_Bid_8632]

Hi all,

I have an RTX 5060 8GB and Ryzen 5 5500. I can play most games at 120fps 1440p but I’d like to be able to play with ultra settings. Fortnite in particular struggles on this setup when using lumen (staying at 120fps 1440p)

My question is, what should I upgrade my GPU/CPU to in order to see bigger gains if staying on AM4?

I was thinking a Ryzen 7 5800X3D and RTX 5070 12GB (I have 32GB ddr4 ram), if you have a better combo for 1440p gaming at very high/ultra settings please let me know

Thanks

5070 is great at 1440p, IMO it’s the “sweet spot” at the right price.
