Any bottlenecks that are apparent?
Is there a problem with CL18 RAM vs CL16?
Sufficient power?
Comments? Concerns?
 
Solution
I'd expect a 5900X (one of the top2 fastest mainstream gaming CPUs)/RX6900XT (one of the top 2 gaming GPUs!) to be fully capable of providing 'adequate' frame rates...in Quake 3.....(at 800x600!)! :)

Depends on what it will be used for but something will always limit your performance.
