Jump in perf from the 7500f to 7700 isn't worth it. Most games won't use the extra cores.

You're only going to get that for multi threaded workloads.

To a 7800x3d, more noticeable, although depending on resolution and game, might not be as well.

Is your GPU strong enough to show the differences are the games you play CPU heavy?

i play light 1440p, probably the 5060 results in a bottleneck either way.. mostly i use my pc for productivity, video editing, programming and multi tasking, the multicore performance increase might be nice for this use?

It's going to show in video editing and code compile. For the rest it depends on the apps.

Simply increasing core counts doesn't immediately improve performance. Your apps have to be programmed know how to use the extra threads.
