[SOLVED] Bottlenecks to my eye balls!?

Ive been spending way too long considering my upgrade path for my gaming system. Any recommendations massively appreciated!

Ryzen 5 1600
AMD RX 570 4GB
16Gb DDR5 3000Mhz
ASRock B450M Pro4 mobo
1TB nvme M.2
1440p 60Hz 27" acer monitor
stock clocks and coolers

Some random bottleneck calculator recommends swapping out the GPU for an RX5700. Thoughts?
Thanks all :)
 
Solution
if gpu is maxed out and you arent satisfied with framerates, then you will need better gpu ;)

ignore cpu usage, it doesnt says whole story

as for 5700xt, its barely enough for 1440p @ 60fps

anyway 5700xt is about twice fast as your current rx570
well its easy to tell what u need
run msi afterburner OSD

check your GPU usage
if its low, than you dont need better gpu

Hey, thanks for your response.

I have been running MS afterburner. my GPU is usually maxed out. I thought that would be he default thing for it to do?

I guess my questions are:

If I upgrade to an RX5700 is it overkill?

Although afterburner says CPU is around 20%, is GPU still bottlenecking as im not seeing all cores on the CPU?
