Hello, newbie from Sweden here.
New on forums but long time follower of ltt on youtube.
I'm looking for an upgrade of the GPU for my old system hosting a gtx 770 that no longer pulls it weight when gaming.
I dont think i'm bottlenecked on anything but feel free to call me out on that. It's a custom system that i've upgraded here and there over the years, but the chassi and PSU are almost 10 years old.
I had to double check but I have both an 8 and a 6 pin from PSU.
Ill be driving on a G-synced 1440p 144 hz monitor (165OC), and no, nothing has ever run at 144 fps on this GPU. Does minesweeper count?
I'm aiming at a mid tier 2060/70 RTX card, have always gone for Asus since early 2000s and have no experience of other manufacturers.
I find it impossible to keep track of gpu stats between cards to have a clue what to get. 2070 this or 1070Ti that?
In regards to the below system, what card gives the most bang for the buck, if any or should I stick to a GTX? Raytracing sure, but meh.
System as is:
ASUS Z170-A S-1151 ATX
Intel Core i7 6700 / 3.4 GHz processor S-1151
Crucial Ballistix Elite 16GB 2666MHz DDR4 DIMM 288-pin
Samsung 950 PRO MZ-V5P256BW 256GB M.2 PCI Express 3.0 x4 (NVMe)
COOLER MASTER SILENT PRO ATX12V 2.3 700W
ANTEC MIDITOWER P193 EATX BLACK
