I've been looking at GPU's lately since I got a new monitor for Christmas. (https://www.pixiogaming.com/px276)

Currently I have a 1050ti in my pc. I've been looking at the new RTX 2060, GTX 1080, GTX 1070ti. I have a budget of about $520. Just wanted to see what other people think. If you have more ideas of cards.

If you can find a 1080 in that price range I'd go for it. Otherwise the 2060 will be your best option. (Though you will have to wait because I don't believe their is any stock out there.)

Is that USD or CAD?
2070/used 1080 Ti definitely look like possible options at that price range, assuming it's USD

1080 isn't worth it imo...

I can outperform a stock 1080 with my 1070 ti...

So you can out perform a stock 1080 with an overclocked 1070Ti? Well then just OC the 1080 and the performance is better. Stock for Stock a 1080 is better than a 1070 Ti. For the price range he would likely have a hard time finding a 1080 anyway, which is why I suggested the 2060.

Actually scratch my suggestion. I would go this route. The 2070 is about 30 bucks more for a decent card than your budget. I'd get the extra cash and get that

I think I'm going to go with a 2060 (once it comes out next week) it's less to save for. I'm just using it for casual CSGO and Bo4 and VR. I'm not doing any rendering or anything serious. Thanks for the feedback. Any ideas where I could sell my 1050ti where people would actually buy it.

You can always try the classifieds here. eBay is another option as well.
