Hi All,
Currently have - 5600x / 3080 / 32gb ram (3200mhz) - 1440 @ 144hz , I am noticing price drops on higher end CPUs of the same generation (namely 5900x).
I know AM4 socket is done and this is the only next step I will have for an upgrade without swapping the motherboard (which is only 1 year old).
Now the only reason I'd want to do that - is to make sure if there are any games which will be coming out optimized for 8+ cores, I am set.
As well I had noticed in games with heavy action and online play i.e. back 4 blood - my frames tank pretty bad when in a sweaty action - say from 180 - 200fps > down to 80-90fps. (does not depend on settings).
Some screens -

I am not sure why the above is happening, CPU is showing usage of 30-40% , and GPU usage actually drop during the heavy action - might it be due to some of the cores maxed and CPU cant feed the GPU enough frames?
Those are the only 2 concerns I have now.
If I could get more constant frames, I would not even consider upgrading for now.
Any advice appreciated.
