I’m thinking of getting myself a cool new 3070 as I’m currently playing on an old R9 390 with an i5 6600k.

Going to play games and do some very light videmaking using unity etc, don’t need that much horsepower for that since I’m fine with my current build.

tldr

What cpu should I pair with a 3070 without bottlenecking it or breaking the bank too much
