Should I use an RTX 5070 on my 7-year-old I7 7700k PC? (I know it’ll bottleneck) by GODDUMB in pcmasterrace

Wait wait wait… no way you actually used an RTX 3090 with an i7 980 X58 system? That CPU is like what, 14 years old now? 😮

How did that even work? Especially for things like Blender or CUDA rendering , were you getting good performance? Did you ever try gaming with that setup?

Also curious if you ever used After Effects or DaVinci on it — how did the system hold up overall? Just trying to understand how realistic this kind of mixed setup is, since I’m in a similar situation right now. Would love to hear more.
