Hello all.
I'm thinking my PC could do with an upgrade but not sure what part/parts would be more priority to upgrade.

Here are my specs:
Motherboard: ROG Strix X570-F Gaming
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3700X
GPU: AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT
PSU: Corsair RM 750X
RAM: Ballistix 16GB

Thank You.
 
Monitor resolution?

Still a decent mid-range machine. Are you wanting more graphics quality, or more FPS?

Obvious thing would be to upgrade to a Ryzen 5700X3D or 5800X3D for gaming. Go for 2x16GB of DDR4 3600 to maximize performance.

Your PSU is good for the upper mid-range cards. So it really comes down to what you have to spend. RX 7700XT, 4070 Super, RX7800XT RX7900 GRE, 4070Ti Super,

I have an Acer Predator X34P 34 inch Ultrawide which runs at 3440x1440
also i want more fps & being able to have better graphics quality
 
Okay, back to spend. There isn't really a bad GPU choice for 1440p ultrawide. As much as you can afford.

RM750X is a decent PSU, I would feel comfortable with a 4070Ti Super, 7900 GRE (Maybe the 7900XT) and anything below.

It is Computex right now, but doesn't look like there are going to be any GPU announcements, but we should see new GPUs from Nvidia, AMD, and Intel in the next few months. They will be the somewhat higher end cards, but it may have a big impact on GPU pricing of the current hardware that is available.

CPU upgrade suggestion is still there as well. That can help with high FPS output when running lower/competitive settings, but given your monitor choice I suspect that isn't a priority.

Okay thank you. :)
