GTA is definitely limited by your cpu. if you do play minecraft, that also is limited as its single threade. i dont know about AC or battle field but i assume that it favours faster cores than more cores.

Ryzen 5 3600 stock | 2x16GB C13 3200MHz (AFR) | GTX 760 (Sold the VII)| ASUS Prime X570-P | 6TB WD Gold (128MB Cache, 2017)

Samsung 850 EVO 240 GB 

138 is a good number.
