Help with CPU/GPU upgrade

Hey guys, 

 

I have a GTX 1050ti paired with a i7-7700 and 8GB of DDR4 2133Mhz RAM. I feel like my CPU is OK for my gaming/streaming, but I get some frame loss. That in mind I want to upgrade my 1050ti to a Nvidia Super model so I can start streaming with the Nvec option instead of x264 because it seems to be better with this option when you have one of those cards. Also making this upgrade I'm looking to improve my gaming experience for a few years and a GTX 1650 Super wouldn't since I'm afraid that it gets outdated quickly. Any advice on which option would be better having in count I don't have 800$ for even one of the cheaper RTX 2080?

for 1080p 60fps gaming? The 1660 super is all you'd need for that performance target.

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

Your cpu is okay for the 1080p

you should get 8gb more ram.

1660super or 1660 ti.Used 1080 or rtx 2060 super

I Use my knowledge as business owner and self taught technician aswell as an AI to help people. AI might be controversial but it actually works pretty well 90% of the time.
