Are my specs good enough for gaming nowadays in 2026? Is there anything I need to upgrade? If so what?

I Just built a i7-12700K with a Z790 DDR4 (32gb) I only did it to Utilize the Corsair Vengeance I already had
I did get a RTX 5070 to go with it, Seems to run everything I throw at it.

Seems totally fine for 2026. It's not the fastest PC on the block anymore. But, a significant upgrade would be very expensive.
