To be fair, I'm getting about 140 fps in Warzone with RT on, but that still translates to something like 30~ fps on a 2060 to one of the better performing RT games.

Get the most raster performance you can for your dollar. And that is likely a 3070 (or a 3080 if you have the lil extra cash), and that gives you an upgrade path later as well. Dont buy one of these last gen cards on the cusp of the new wave if you are looking from a value standpoint.

Wots the point if the GPU is gonna be bottlenecked by the CPU though? My intent is to run this PC through the life of this video card, whatever I buy, and then will have to build a new one. I'm hoping to get another 3-4 years out of this CPU as the heart of my main PC.
