Long time lurker occasional poster.
I am planning to upgrade my son's GPU to an RTX 2060. We mostly play modern FPS titles, his favorite being Apex Legends at the moment. I will also be getting him a new monitor as well so a CPU upgrade will have to wait. Will a i5 3570k overclocked to 4.5 bottleneck an RTX 2060 specifically for Shooters? I am assuming most shooters are lighter on the CPU and mostly GPU dependent. CPU has been stable at that for years and is on water custom loop.
Thanks for any input
