Good choice! Be sure to let us know how you get on.
Remember to remove your old Nvidia drivers before installing the new card, Windows is pretty good with that sort of thing now but it's still worth doing just in case.
I'd agree with what Gray2233 said, it'll be fine for 3-5 years at 1440p, but if you're not hard on your settings and don't always play AAA games there's no reason it couldn't last for longer.
That said, newer AAA games can be pretty tough on even high-end cards, so there's always a possibility a new game will come out that makes you sad

BF6 is apparently one of those games that benefits from X3D CPU.
My advice would be 7800X3D with a 9070xt and worry about graphics cards next year when we have 6080 GPU's.
The 5080 Super will be 1st or second quarter next year and overpriced at £1200 plus yet within 6 months of release of Supers we will see the new 6000 series.
Hardly worth paying the premium or getting into debt for.
I myself had thought of waiting for the 5080 Super, I even bought a temporary 9060xt 16gb GPU, but ended up buying the 9070xt anyway.as this time next year we will have better AMD cards than the 5080 Super for half the price probably.

5070 super with 18gb. I’m expecting this to be around £800 and to stay relevant for some time. I think this card will have enough about it for resolutions of 5k or less. It’s should also be reasonably efficient and well under the power draw of the current 5080 16gb. I’d only look cards with 24 gigabytes and above for running monitors with massive resolutions like 7680x2160.
i will get a Better cpu which one would be best please, and i will save for the new cards sometime next year. its a pricey game this.
@sastusbulbas recommended the 7800X3D. Selling your 7600 may help you with funding the new CPU if needed.
https://www.techspot.com/review/3043-battlefield-6-cpu-benchmark/ covers BF6 benchmarks for CPUs in particular. Worth reading that article, but just to quote some information from their 1080p 'overkill' preset section:
Combining benchmarks from performance reviews always confuses me, but if I'm reading that right, you could expect a 7600 to hit 100 FPS overall (including 1% lows) at 1080p.
But, you need more like a 9070 to hit 100 fps at 1080p (highest settings) in TPU's GPU testing.
Sooo..., for the OP playing at 1440p, I'd expect a GPU to offer better returns to do first? In TPU's testing, the 3070 Ti got 56 fps and the 9070 80 fps (at highest settings again, 1440p).

the rumours are the end of Q1, hardly a few months
On 12th September when I posted that, the rumours were suggesting October at the earliest, maybe around thanksgiving, but yeah, now they're saying more like March.

wow!!!
obviously cant share a link due to the competitor mentioning rules but is that used? special offer? almost sounds too good to be true if im honest
very happy to be proven wrong on that one though lol
and the question yes the 9800x3d is basically a slightly improved 7800x3d well for the purposes of answering the question at least in this context it is basically an improved 7800x3d.

As long as it’s not being sold by a hairy American called Steve who’s been trying to kill it for a few months. But seriously £280 is a bargain if genuine.
i went and got it and put it in my system, and now my computer wont start up. everything come on but juts no signel, would i have to flash the bios in order for the 9800x3d to work on my motherboard
thank you
Yes you probably will need to update. You could try clearing the CMOS too.
That's the B650 board (ASRock Pro RS)?
Is this a first boot? How long did you wait?
thia is the first boot after instaling the cpu would i still have to wait the 5-10 mins for the first boot with the new cpu
Did you ever update the BIOS since first receiving your board?
Possibly, yes.
i dont think i did, i tend not to do bios updates unless i really have to.. i would even know what one i would need to update to.. there is that many. i can flash via the flashback but its knowing the right one to download.
turns out it was the bios, i have updated the bios and ran into another problem i cant sign into my microsoft account because the sign in pin wont work because the security has changed and i tried resetting the password it it saying my account is locked, all fun and game.
