First of all I would like to say thank you to anyone who helps me out, I need to upgrade my graphics card ASAP, i have roughly $650 burning a hole in my pocket and am currently gaming on an RX550 which is basically integrated graphics. I want to play all the AAA titles at close to max settings at 1440p 144hz(free sync).
 

Should I buy a card now? If yes which one?

 

or should I wait for “big Navi” or next gen Nvidia?


My current build is down below

you're definitely not gonna do that with a $650 budget, that's 2080 ti levels of performance (and even that is not sufficient for rock solid 144 fps)

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

I would recommend getting a gtx 1070, rtx 2060 or rx 5600.

And number 2, You can get a r5 3600 for 150 dolars cheaper and it is alot better, not sure why you are trying to get a r7 1700 for 300 dollars, for that much you can get a r7 3700. Hope this helps.
