As per title, is it worth upgrading to anything?

Other specs for reference:

Monitor ROG Strix Pg297Q 1140p 144hz
9700k Mild Overclock
32GB Ram (cant remember the speed)

only ever casually game on the PC now, but went to reinstall Warzone 2.0 and struggled to get it to run "nicely" so wondered if it was about time to look at a replacement?
 
You'll see an improvement, but your CPU will be a bottleneck for some games.

I upgraded from a 8700k last year to a 5700x (with a 3080 12gb) and saw a small improvement. My recent upgrade to a 9800X3D saw noticable improvement.

Depending on budget, I'd wait until next month to see what options you have for the GPU side of things if you don't want to upgrade.
