Will it make much difference going from Ryzen 5 3600 to Ryzen 7 5800X for VR

Hi
As title,
I currently have a Ryzen 5 3600.
I play only sim racing in VR.

After fiddling around with the graphics and supersampling settings on my 3080ti FE I'm getting around 80 Fps at roughly 90% Gpu performance but Gpu usage can briefly drop to 62%. No dropped frames. Less than 1% reprojection. Much of the graphics settings are on high and ultra. Supersampling is set to 1.0 If I push supersampling higher, I get choppy gameplay.

According to FpsVr my 3600 cpu is showing CPU usage 33% and CPUs is around 75%

Now, I'm not sure what the difference between CPU and CPUs is within FPSVR but a quick google seems to suggest CPU% is cpu usage but CPUs is an average instantaneous usage for all cores.

That doesn't make sense to me. I'm confused on that. Is my 3600 struggling?

I'd rather not have to cough up another few hundred pounds just to get a small gain in Frames per second. But a huge gain, I'd be happy to part with my cash for.

Would a Ryzen 5800X allow me to push up the supersampling?

Your words of wisdom are welcomed, please.

Thank you for that.
I wasn't sure if SS was anything to do with a cpu.
Nice to know a newer cpu could improve things though. Possibly by a reasonably noticeable margin by the sounds of it.

I might have to wait a while though.
Since posting this question this morning I've just splurged £400 on an impulse buy in the MM for a Fanatec wheel and rim.

Maybe I should stop thinking about graphics so much and actually try learning how to race
