Should I upgrade my CPU for VR?

Honored Guest

I have an RTX 3060 8gb, 16 gb 3600 mhz ram and a Ryzen 5 5600X and usually play open world survival games like the Into the Radius games, Metro Awakening, and TWD Saints and sinners 1 and 2. I’ve been considering it because my cpu is at 12% utilization while my GPU is at about 99%. What I was mainly wondering is if upgrading my CPU will help take the heavy load off my GPU. If anyone is wondering, I use a quest 2 connected to a link cable and play at around 4128x2100 at 72 hz

@dikebki1  VR utilises GPU grunt than CPU power, so you'd be better off saving your money for a better graphics card.
