Cheap graphics advice

[abernalmac]

Hi, I was given a 1080p 144Hz monitor as a present, but my graphics card won't get over 100 in most games when selecting high settings, so I was wondering what would be the cheapest new card that would allow me to reach more or less consistently 120 or more fps.

what games? also, what are the specs of the rest of your pc? what is your current gpu, cpu, ram etc.?

then don't use high settings? especially AA, 4x MSAA is virtually indistinguishable from 8x or 16x

I thought my specs appeared in my profile haha.

I currently have a Ryzen 5 3600, vengeance lpx 3000 MHz RAM, and a GTX 1650.

I mostly play Sekiro, Forza Horizon 4 and Battletech but I keep switching games so an all-rounder card would be the best I think.

That would be another solution I guess ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

depending on your budget, a 1660 super($250), a rx 5700($350) or a 2070 super ($500)

Just lower settings. Games still play at lower than ultra and High.
