Question Advice on next upgrade

[NPSR]

I have a ryzen 5 3600, 2070 super, and 16 gb ram rn. Was going to microcenter tmrw and wondering if I should get the mb/cpu bundles with a ryzen 7 9700x and ram, or upgrade my gpu instead. What do you guys think?

Can you list full system specs including PSU model and age? Include ram speed, cooler and motherboard model.

Do you have a budget to work to?

What do you use the computer for?

What resolution you working with?

Lower the in-game graphics and look if your FPS increases. If it does, CPU is more powerful than your GPU and you can upgrade your GPU.
But if FPS doesn't increase, it means you're held back by CPU. In this case, upgrade CPU.

Depending on your current motherboard, you could do a drop in upgrade with a 5700x3d. MC selling them for like $180.

The 5700x3d someone mentioned earlier. That should max out your old board, then upgrade the gpu and carry it over to a newer build later.
