Crusty Old Build Needs New CPU, Which One?

Alright, here's the deal. I'm currently on an AX370 mobo, still running a Ryzen 7 1700X and 16GB of RAM.

Finally had to upgrade my GPU last year when my R9 Fury **bleep** the bed, I have a 3070 Ti now.

I am riding this horse until I can't ride it anymore and I do not have the money to do a new build.

What CPU do I yeet in here for hopefully $200 or less so that I can play Space Marine 2 and Stalker 2 at minimum 1080p without wanting to kill myself from how bad it looks?

Yeah I'll probably buy more RAM too before that comes up.

Maybe the 5700X3D, it's right around the $200 mark, maybe a few dollars more.

Ryzen 7800X3D - Radeon 7900XTX - MSI Tomahawk X670e MB - 64gb 6000mhz G-Skill Neo - Noctua NH D15 - Seasonic Focus V3 GX-1000W PSU - 4TB Samsung Gen. 5 NVMe - Fractal Torrent Case - ROG PG48UQ OLED

The 5700X3D seems to do it but check if you have BIOS support with the vendor first.
