This. Even my 3080 cannot achieve 140fps at max settings 1440p in gpu heavy games. In gpu heavy games the gpu will be the limiting factor before the cpu. In lighter games the cpu may be limiting before the gpu but it doesn’t matter, you will still get very good FPS.1440p, highest settings, and, presumably, you want 170fps?
An RTX 3090 combined with the fastest CPU available won't even get you that.
