Upgrading GPU or not?

[Shingen Pendragon]

Hello,
I have been thinking lately about replacing my 1060 to something that can deal AC Odyssey on 1440p and other future games like Cyberpunk but..
Is it really worthy to buy now any RTX GPU? RTX Super totally destroyed 2000 series like RTX 2070 Super give you almost the same performance in games that 2080 do..
What you people feeling about it? It's worth to invest now in new GPU? Or maybe wait for new series?

You must ask yourself how rich you are. :) If you have lot of money, you can buy new gpu every year. If not - just lower game settings a little and that's it.

What are your system specs.  Can you fill out your signature or let us know your rig.  1060 is a great 1080p 60fps card.  You can do 1440p with a 2070 super and go to nvpanel and enable some AA methods and tweak other settings and in game set to high or ultra high, you should be in triple digits frame rates with most modern AAA titles.

I get your point but i'm thinking about something to get for longer time than changing GPU every year. 1060 is good enough for 1080p gaming but i'm looking for GPU that will handle 1440p.

@Turtle Rig Updated signature, thanks for tip
I'm okay with my 1060 for 1080p gaming even if it's 3GB VRAM version. I was thinking about 2070 Super but my monitor don't have HDMI so i should be prepared for using more money. I guess DVI gonna die?

Edit. I was thinking about Acer Nitro VG240YUBMIIPX 23,8" and 1440p version

1060 3gb is still great for 1080p gaming, just custom high setting and not ultra .

current rtx & 5700 are still quite costly. better wait to see next gen  from both and get a 1440p monitor.

no urge to upgrade now.

 

ps not to use AC as your gaming ref/  target

Yes I agree with you hundred percent.  He can in the future buy a video card and play @ 1440p with all AA methods used and all nvpanel settings set to On and maxed out.  Also I max out games,, all high or ultra high and I enjoy triple digit FPS.  A 144hz monitor would do me justice.  The 2070 super will be a good card and you can game at 1440p on it sustained 60fps and never drops.  But of course the 2070 will take you to triple digits on AAA titles except maybe a couple games like BF and Lara Croft and what not.
