HUD/Glass cockpit refresh rate?

Is the refresh rate of HUDs and/or glass cockpit displays limited more by the CPU or graphics card in MSFS? I know that (overall) Flightsim has always been more CPU bound, but is it the same for everything in the sim? I have a 8GB RTX 3070, but am debating on getting a 12GB 4070 since the price on them is approaching $500. Just curious if that's a worthwhile upgrade, as my system is handling things pretty well overall with some seemingly graphics card related limitations.
