So not so long ago upgraded from Gtx 1070 to gtx 1080ti and there is fps improvment but i think cause of my not so great CPU i am not getting as much as i could with gtx 1080 ti.
First of all here is my current setup:
GPU: Asus Strix GTX 1080 Ti
CPU: Ryzen 7 1700x
RAM: HyperX Fury 16GB DDR4 2400mhz
Cooler: Coolermaster TX3 EVO
MOBO: Gigabyte AX370-Gaming 3
HDD: 2.5TB Toshiba
SSD: Samsung 860 EVO 250GB
PSU: Coolermaster Master Lite 600w
And easiest thing for me was just to upgrade from 1700x to 3800x (hopefully wouldnt have to change MOBO since they are same socket). But i cant find many people with simular setup to compare to mine online.
But for some reason i fear i wont get much fps boost switching from 1700x to 3800x and that the change will be just 20fps more which is not what i want. So i started comparing 1080 TIs setups from other streamers (i will be using my PC to stream too) and since i will stream mostly Apex Legends i started looking into what CPUs and what FPS some of them are getting when streaming. And i saw lots of streamers (that are not using streamer PC seperatly) use i7 8600k/8700k and they get about 60-70 fps more then i do with same gpu. When i stream avrg is about 110-120 i think, sometimes it can drop to 90 and sometimes it can get to 150, i am using 144hz monitor on 1080p, and streamers that used i7 8600/8700 are not going bellow 150 fps, ever, and are on avrg 190-200 fps. So could i expect same results with 3800x? Should i go for 3800x with my current mobo or i7 8600 + new mobo?
