3800x to 5700x?

DLSS renders your game at a lower resolution. The lower the resolution the more taxing it is on your CPU. By removing DLSS you're effectively increasing the render resolution (not ouput resolution). This is causing your GPU to work harder. If you don't gain any meaningful increase in FPS with DLSS enabled, you're best leaving it disabled.

You likely don't need a CPU upgrade at the moment. Yes, some of your games are CPU demanding, but at 1440p you'd get much more of a result from a better GPU. Some games will never hit 100% GPU utilisation due to software/engine restrictions and overheads. Online multiplayer shooters are renowned for this. So long as you're 90-100% then you'd still benefit from a GPU upgrade on those titles.

Too late lol bought and installed a 5800x3d seeing MUCH more fps in all my games now with miles better lows, was an amazing upgrade i think, dont feel like i need to upgrade the gpu for a while now, was thinking of getting a 4070 at some point but not so sure now

May wait for next series of cards, all depends if the itch gets too bad lol but the cpu did make a massive improvement

Thanks for the update! I will deffo move to a 5800x3d at some point but I have to update the GPU first

What gpu and cpu do you have at the moment?

A ryzen 3600x and a RTX 3070. But I play at 4k@120 so GPU upgrade comes first.

Just to add, when your not playing the online competitive games your goal should be up the graphical settings till you are maxing the GPU out getting decent fps. I have started to use DLDSR to downsample from a higher res than the monitor native and get decent results. Use your CP and toggle it on ticking the 1.78, 2.25 boxes - you then will see them in game and be able to play at the higher resolutions.

Just to add a bit of hat eating, with some Cyberpunk in anger on my 3900XT I’m absolutely bottlenecking on the CPU, with lower settings it’s leaving a lot of performance on the table and when stretching the legs of the GPU we deffo get CPU bound stalls.
