I have a old computer that I have been considering to connect to my TV.

The computer has 

Core i7-4790

Asus Z97-deluxe

2x8 GB Corsair memory

Would a RTX 2060 or 2070 be overkill for this? It would be used for either 1080/60 or 4k/30 gaming. I don't expect to running anything at max settings, but it would be nice to turn on raytracing it the games that support it

Radeon rx 5700 would be the best, it has a bit better performance than rtx 2060 super and its a bit cheaper.

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.
