Looking for new GPU

[vocal plank]

Current Specs:
Ryzen 5 7600x
32gb of DDR5 Ram @ 6400mhz
2070 Super
1tb NVME SSD
PRO B650M-A-Wifi
Can't check power supply. But it's enough for an upgrade

Budget: $300-700 (Can go a little over)
Games: Mainly GTAV with quite a bit of graphical mods
Resolution n Framerate: 1080p @144hz is what i’d like to get to and what my monitor can handle. But I currently play on about 60 fps

Looking for something to beef up my system. About a year ago I upgraded a few parts and got a new MOBO, CPU, Ram, etc. However didn't upgrade the GPU. Been using this 2070 Super for the last 5 years pretty heavily so looking to get something that'll beef my system up a little.

We are in a GPU shortage so you'll probably have to wait a while to get a good GPU

9070 XT @600 is looking amazing, IF you can get it

[chilly lion]

if u want to stay on 1080p then thats too high of a budget

[autumn wagon]

1080p gpu? 4060/7600xt

[chilly lion]

both of them are rarely the best option

[proper rapids]

You have a build ready for 1440p and potentially 4k especially with the 700 budget for the gpu, if you're interested in 4k high-ultra settings then the 9070xt is amazing, if you want to do 1440p then a rx 7800 xt is prob best, if you want 1080p I just don't recommend it, better to upgrade to 1440p honest

[vocal plank]

Wouldn't going to 1440p lower my fps tho?

Since it's a higher resolution

[proper rapids]

Rx 7800 xt is a 1440p GPU, slightly lower fps for much higher quality, resolution, and gaming experience

[vocal plank]

if I went to 1440p, do I need 2 1440p monitors

or can I play games on a 1440p and have a 1080p 2nd monitor

[proper rapids]

If you use it for 1080p then you'd have spent a lot more for no real reason, unless you're an esports gamer you won't need 1080p

[proper rapids]

You can do this, yeah

[vocal plank]

1080p is just what my monitor is

[proper rapids]

You can buy a 1440p 144-240hz good monitor and a rx 7800 xt / rx 7800 and play 1440p and use your current 1080p as secondary

I'm unsure about exact prices cause it depends on what you choose

[vocal plank]

Any suggestions in terms of Monitors?

[proper rapids]

9070 is also a goated 1440p card, stronger than 7800 xt by a decent amount

[proper rapids]

What would your budget for the monitor be?

Preferred size, resolution, refresh rate

[vocal plank]

I could probably spend in total between the monitor and card $1000

[proper rapids]

Alright, this is USD?

[vocal plank]

yea

[proper rapids]

Give me a few minutes to check some stuff

I'm not the best with monitors but I'll see

[vocal plank]

27inch, 144hz 1440p

[proper rapids]

Do you know your ram model, CL speed, and SSD model?

[vocal plank]

Clock speed is 6400mhz

Model is T-Create

[proper rapids]

That isn't clock speed, and it isn't mhz.

That is your Main speed - 6400MTs - 6400 Megatransfers per second

CL also known as CAS Latency is like CL30, CL32, 34, 36, 38, 40 etc

[vocal plank]

yeaa, idk that

[proper rapids]

Ram isn't measured in mhz at all

Alr no worries then

this is my ram

[proper rapids]

That isn't the exact spec but don't worry about that

[vocal plank]

6400MHz CL40-40-40-40-84

[proper rapids]

What is your case?

Is it mid tower? Like do you have a specific model

[vocal plank]

not exactly sure, it's rather large. Fits a 3 fan 2070 super fine with quite a bit of sace

its a corsair case

is this good. Or should I get a three fan one?

Isk if that's the right list

Give me a sec

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/

Ugh

I hate mobile

[vocal plank]

the first one was right

with the gpu n monitor

[proper rapids]

Oh

Good

You can most likely find a cheaper monitor as well

[vocal plank]

so im confused. How do some cards perform better on 1440p then 1080p?

[proper rapids]

Search on amazon, check reviews, etc

Keep the monitor to be 200 or more tho

[proper rapids]

Well 1080p will have higher fps, but not by much, some cards have extremely good quality but can get hindered by the resolution, you won't buy an RTX 4090 for 1080p cause there isn't a monitor that does 800hz that you'll have fun on lol

The rx 7800 xt is made for 1440p and mid 4k gaming

It also kinda works very very well with your current build as a new gpu

5 7600x, 32gb ddr5 6400, and a rx 7800 xt can do 1440p ultra and 4k in most games

[vocal plank]

alright

[vocal plank]

is the monitor able to be put on a stand?

[short ingot]

Monitor suggestion is the gigabyte m27q

200$ 170hz 1440p

It’s 220$ rn on Amazon but usually lower

Black Friday it drops to 180 but that isn’t for a while

https://www.amazon.com/Gigabyte-Monitor-Display-Response-FreeSync/dp/B08JWCHR5N

[chilly lion]

Lower fps, higher image quality

[chilly lion]

Nothing slight about the reduction in fps

[chilly lion]

You can have 1 1440p monitor and 1 1080p monitor and they will work fine

[chilly lion]

No cards work that way
