I built this computer with my son 6ish years ago for Christmas Now it’s lagging while playing battlefield 6 . Does it pay to swap parts or just start over?

Video cards have lost their momentum in the last 8-10 years. I recently went from a 1### Nvidia card to the 5### blackwell (over 10 years waiting), and it was only a moderate improvement. Ray tracing is a total gimmick used to sell hardware and the settings on games going from low/medium to ultra aren't that noticeable. I would wait for RAM prices to drop at a bare minimum.
