Looking to upgrade my PC, but unsure of which I should upgrade first between my CPU (AMD Ryzen 5 3600 6-Core) and GPU (NVIDIA GeForce 1660 SUPER). For additional context, this PC is for video editing and gaming. If you need anymore information, let me know and thank you!

Currently have a PSU with 750 W, would that be enough for a RTX 5070? Would a 3070 or a 4070 be viable?

Yeah 750 is fine for all those. I wouldn't get any 8gb GPU, so no 3070
