Other details

I would like to upgrade my pc mainly my cpu and motherboard. I am thinking of making the switch from AMD to Intel after looking at parts myself. I Believe i am currently bottle necked due to my processer and motherboard and with these upgrades i had in mind i will be bottle necking due to my GPU but i will be upgrading that in the coming month anyway.

Id like to be able to play above 80 Fps on games as i currently own a 144Hz 1080p Monitor but looking to upgrade to a 244Hz 1440p Monitor (Not to be included in budget)

 

My current pc is as follows:
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 2700x Eight-Core Processor
Memory: Lexar THOR DDR4 RAM 32GB (2x16) 3200 Mhz

Motherboard: B450 gaming plus 

Power Supply: CMPSU-650TX Corsair TX Series 650-Watts ATX 12V 80 Plus Bronze Power Supply

 

The parts i had in mind are:

CPU: Intel I7-14700k 20 Core Processor

Motherboard: MSI Z790 GAMING PLUS

Memory: Corsair Vengeance RGB DDR5 32 (2x16) 5200 Mhz

Cooler: Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE ARGB CPU Air cooler

 

Any advice is greatly appreciated thank you in advance!
