Your 5600x should be able to keep up at 1440p. The diffenence you would see upgrading g to a 5800x wouldn't be that big of a jump, you would make a 25fps difference if that
He just said it would be for 1440p gaming, gaming. As for gaming goes the 5600x would be fine to mix with the 6900xt. If he was wanting to do 4k gaming I could see upgrading the cpu he has but 1440p will be perfect with the 5600
Doesn't change my opinion that it's application specific - whether they be playing CS:GO with all the eye candy turned down for max fluidity, or one of those RTS games, or Cyberpunk with everything turned up, or some titles with a few 'bugs'... they're all going to behave differently with the hardware.
Oml, this is getting old every other post people gotta be such a smarty. It's a simple question to answer and people gotta make it out to be more then it is.... when it a gaming machine it's not so hard to answer question and help sort parts out.... if this was a server to run a company yes being nitpicky not a bad thing..... but making it harder and harder for newer pc gamers to understand the "right way" to build a gaming pc is getting ridiculous.... 1440p gaming the system he has is fine for every game he can even play flight simulator without a problem..... there's no need to sit here and confuse people more with well with faulty games this could be a problems.... with a faulty game anything can be a problem.... what are you talking about... really going to use cs,go as an example as well.... that is a game that can run and a first gen single core cpu..... and nothing else that's like saying what taste like a apple, the apple or the orange.....
What GPU do you have now?
The problem is that people see "bottleneck", and assume worse performance.
As said...putting in a better part does not reduce performance.
If your getting the 6900 XT anyway then you might as well try it as your 5600X doesn't cost you anything. I'm assuming you want to increase frame rates, if it's just to turn up the graphical detail then it might not have much impact unless it's something like ray tracing.
