Upgrading cpu

So I'm thinking about upgrading my CPU from a 7700x to 9800x3d since I've build my PC for exactly that and didn't have the money at the time. Now I do.

But it got my thinking. I don't really understand the lanes on your motherboard. Do I need a new mother board too?

My specs:

7700x

Nvidia 5070ti 16 GB

32gb ram

Board: Gigabyte X870 Gaming Wifi

Psu: 850 corsair

Edit: forgot to mention my psu

Maybe someone could help me decide.
