sorry, typo.... RTX 4070 ti
From what I've found, my particular system has a proprietary power supply and motherboard. and only provides enough power for the 3060 that it came with. I considered going nuclear and getting a 4090, but the price jump between that and the 4070 was a little steep...
I got to looking into upgrade options and Dell being Dell made the power supply proprietary so any significant graphics or CPU upgrades that require a larger PSU will require a new MOBO, so....I just ordered parts for an i9-13900K and RTX 3070 ti build...
Thank you very much for the help. Here is a flat 1080 run. I'm definitely interested in upgrading if it will help get to a steady 45FPS in VR, I'm just not sure where the best bang for the buck would be.
Am I simply underpowered in the CPU department here? I've tried everything short of reinstalling Windows, but I cannot seem to get anything stable past 30 frames in the benchmark, and many scenes will fail to hit 45 and start slow-motion regardless of what I do with settings.
Looking at system...
