All parts I bought in 2016 with GTX 1070, but this card died 1,5 year ago. RTX 3060 I bought in November 2022.

Games are playable on high settings without Ray Tracing. With RT you need to use DLSS which personally I don’t like, even on quality setting, because there’s some kind of blur and textures looks worse. With DLSS, there’s a 10-25 fps boost, depends on settings and resolution. To avoid bottleneck, you need to use at least 2560:1440p with high settings or higher resolution with medium/high settings.
80-90%of cpu usage is still ok in my opinion, but less is always better. About 60% cpu usage is on 4K resolution which you can set via Nvidia Control Panel.
I don’t need 60 fps and more in games, so 35-45 are fine 😉
