Upgrade Options

Go to solution Solved by Husky,

You could probably come up to a RTX 2060 or an RX 5600 XT before seeing bottlenecking. However you will have issues in CPU intensive games such as Battlefield.

I am currently running an i7 4770 pulled from a dell prebuilt. I have it paired with a GTX 1070 and this pairing works great at 1080p on my high refresh rate monitor. My question is, how much further do you think I could upgrade my GPU without hitting a large CPU bottleneck? Thanks in advance for your insight.
