Obviously, your GPU matters even more for games.
The 2700X, 5700X3D, & 5900X all use the AM4 CPU-motherboard socket. The Ryzen 7000 series use the AM5 socket. AMD should be debuting its Ryzen 9000 series this 2024 during summer to winter. In the next couple of months, AMD should also release the Ryzen 5800XT & 5900XT, which are improvements to the original Ryzen 5800X & 5900X --- exact details are tentative & subject to change.
If you plan to keep your current rig for a while (depending also on the mobo your using) , then yes a 5900x would be a very nice/faily big uplift and very capable for another 2-3 more years easily (depending on your usage). ~ But if you need to buy another mobo (to get the most out of the 5900x) such as a x570/x570s , then you may want to go with a newer Ryzen AM5 series .
