Looking to upgrade my CPU (Ryzen 5 2700X) to a Ryzen 7 5800X3D, as I feel the CPU bottlenecks my graphics card (5700 XT)?

Anybody having the said setup and can say something about it?

Edit, sixth months later: I’ve recently upgraded to a Ryzen 7 5700X, and fixed issues with my RAM. Now everything runs as smooth as it should!

    I’m running a Ryzen 5 5600x and an RX. 6600XT

    My GPU is around 85-99% but my CPU rarely goes about 50%

    I get between 100-144fps at 1080p

    And I’m running Hunt on Linux

      Hunt takes ages for me to load, and the visual experience could be way smoother. I’m running between 60 and 80 FPS, but it is not smooth at all.

      What screen size are you using?

      What’s your setup for running Hunt on Linux?

        I use a 27” 144hz monitor for gaming.

        I used to play on windows 10 until Hunt became playable on Linux. First I used Fedora 38. Currently I’m trying Arch Linux which seems nice.

        I think both your GPU and CPU are a bit weak to run Hunt at higher FPS these can also contribute to slower losing times

        On which drive did you install hunt? Long loading times indicate a slow storage device. If you are using a SATA SSD or even a HDD you might also want to upgrade to M2.
