My PCs ass is getting beat by the launch of Counter Strike 2, I’m wondering if a 3070 would help.

Hello SureAreHardLuke, and thank you for your submission to Gaming PC! If you are new please check out our rules over at the wiki [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/gamingpc/wiki/rules)!
We have recently added the useful feature of Title Flair! You can set this manually by clicking Flair under your post once you have submitted your post, but if you missed it in the rules there is a much better way that will automatically flair your post!
To do this simply add what your post is about in brackets before your title. For example for a Build Log you can type [Build Log] before your post so that it looks like this; [Build Log]My new awesome build!, and the bot will automatically set your flair to Build Log! This works for Build Log, Build Showcase, News, Hardware News, Hardware Release, Discussion, and Miscellaneous!
Also remember that this is a place for discussing and sharing our love of Gaming Computers! This is NOT the place for help building or determining what parts you should buy, that is better suited for /r/buildapc. Troubleshooting questions should be directed to /r/techsupport. Thank you again!

I’d say wait a little bit and save up to get a new rig. This is still a decently capable PC, but at the very least, I wouldn’t advise getting a single part that will be bottlenecked by that old chip.
Yes you will bottleneck that 6700K it will work but you will suffer bottlenecking.I’ve done this myself with a 3080 and same CPU. It does bottleneck. You need to upgrade that CPU for sure. I played FPS with that setup and it slowed down running things on ULTRA setting with the 6700K and 3080 combo. I think you mean RTX not GTX 3070. Upgrade to a Z690 and get a 12700k or better it will be golden. I’m using that and a 3080 12 GB card. Beast of a system no need for 4090 for a couple years for me.
