I wouldn't worry about it quite yet. The 4770K is still a very capable CPU, and as long as it's enough for your needs, there's not much reason to upgrade.

 

Given a few more years, that will change, but there will be newer and better CPUs out by then.

 

Hello

I need to upgrade my computer I was thinking to just buy a new graphic card instead of buying a new computer but I don't know if it's worth it with the spec I have.

And the graphic card I was thinking of buying is gtx 2070.

 

What do you recommend guys?

It'll be fine.

 

At worst you'll be slightly bottlenecked by the 4770K, but it really will depend on the game.

RTX2070 would be suitable,but as @TheKDub mentioned, slight bottleneck with cpu.

 

What PSU do you currently have in your system?

I'd recommend the rtx 2060. It's fairly close in performance to the 2070 but for way cheaper. It's basically just a overclocked 2060 with 2gb more vram for 150 more. So unless you are playing 4k, then go for the 2060. And if you are playing at 4k, the 2070 isn't even the answer. The 2080/Radeon VII is your minimum really.
