Hi, I'm from Indonesia and i'm still new in this forum and i need you guys opinion.

I'm planning on to upgrade my VGA for gaming and mostly from Steam games.

My current rig :
CPU : Intel I3 9100F

Mobo : MSI B360M Mortar

Ram : Corsair Vengeance LPX 2666mhz 2x8 DDR4 

VGA : GTX 1050Ti Gigabyte Gaming G1

 

My VGA is 3 years old and im thinking to pick either GTX 1660Ti or RTX 2060 super.

Will i experiencing heavy bottleneck if i using RTX 2060 Super? Since my CPU is not that great
It's GTX 1660Ti good enough? Will i experiencing bottleneck ?

 

Thank you

I meant GTX 1660TI is good enough for most of Steam games and my current rig or i should aim for RTX 2060 super?

Most game i play is Dynasty Warriors 9, Devil May Cry games, Tales games etc and sometimes i play League of Legends also.

I'm confuse which one i should get, i'm afraid will experiencing heavy bottleneck with RTX 2060 super since my CPU is I3 9100F and will force me upgrade my CPU later on.

Your 1050Ti is above the minimum requirements of DW9 (https://store.steampowered.com/app/730310/DYNASTY_WARRIORS_9/), DMC5 (https://store.steampowered.com/app/601150/Devil_May_Cry_5/), Batman: The Enemy Within - The Telltale Series (https://store.steampowered.com/app/675260/Batman_The_Enemy_Within__The_Telltale_Series/) so what other games are you playing that would warrant a GPU upgrade?

 

Seems like upgrading from a 1050Ti to a higher card is just for the sake of upgrading IMHO.

CPU: Sempron 2500+ / P4 2.8E / P4 2.6C / A64 x2 4000+ / E6420 / E8500 / i5-3470 / i7-3770
GPU: TNT2 M64 / Radeon 9000 / MX 440-SE / 7300GT / Radeon 4670 / GTS 250 / Radeon 7950 / 660 Ti

I'm playing tales game series like tales of abyss, tales of berseria, etc

Nier Automata, and any other stuff like that.

My online game just League of Legends so far and nothing more, so i'm planning not to upgrade into high end GPU, so what is in my mind right now either GTX 1660Ti or RTX 2060.

What im curious is when i pick RTX 2060, do i need upgrade my CPU or not? Since my CPU just i3 9100F.
