From 9700K to where?

[zer]

Hi from Greece! I am currently considering upgrading a 9700K based system, with 16GB 3600 DDR4 and a 3070. Question is to where?

I5 14600K?
I7 14700K?
7800X3D?

System is used exclusively for gaming, 1080p currently...

Please keep in mind i 'd like to keep RAM [ if it doesnt bottleneck too much...] and i will DEFINETELLY keep 3070 due to budget restrictions...

Any other ideas i havent consider?
Many thanks!!!

Well, TLOU at a mixture of medium-high settings dips very often below 60, eveb below 55...Hogwarts stutters like crazy everywhere, so i unistalled...And i dont even dare to buy Alan Wake...
Isn't 3070 at least partially bottlenecked from 9700K? Do you believe performace increase will be insignificant?
Thanks!

Thanks for all the answers guys, i appreciate it! I learned a lot of things
So besides CPU and Mobo, Ram is gonna change as well. Something like DDR5 6000 CL32 is ok?
I t seems that most of you prefer 7800X3d than i5 14600K, am i correct?
I'm afraid i7 14700K, now with the RAM change , is out of my budget....
