2070S vs 2060S

[LewisBros]

I just can't decide on which GPU I want to purchase. I have a 1920x1080 144Hz monitor and just plan on just gaming on it. I want to run ultra/highest settings on most games and get solid fps for these games, even if that means lowering the settings a little bit to get the 144+fps that I need. My only issue is that I want my gpu to stay relevant for a little while, but I'm not sure that the extra $100ish is worth it for the 2070 Super. I've been asking around and can't finalize on an answer. If anyone has a good review between these 2 that would be greatly appreciated!!!

 

Thank you!

 

PS: Was looking at the bottom 2 for my options on which one's to chose but I'm totally down for other options because at this point I don't even know what I know:

There is also the 2070

You think that would be a good inbetween for the 2? I wouldn't mind checking it out if that would be a good option

Pricing is so close to the 2060 super, worth it imo.

Still fresh from the oven, you decide if that extra $100 worth the jump. (feat. 2070, 2060s)

Yeah that's what I thought. Do you happen know if the actual performance is decently better though?

Yes, the GPU is definitely worth the $10 extra in terms of performance increase.

i would get this card, i think it's worth it for the price if you're serious about getting a premium gaming experience at 1080p for a few years to come:

That's what I was thinking. However, I was doing some research and read that for the most part the 2070s is better for 1440p 60fps gaming. I only plan on running 1080p so I was wondering if I even need to spend the extra $100 as long as I got the fps I needed

you have a 144hz monitor...this GPU won't achieve those FPS even at 1080p in some AAA titles if you want high detail settings...games that are out NOW...not in a year and a half from now.

That said, you also need a damn good CPU combo to push the frames at those rates in many games as well...so that is to keep in mind.

i would get the best card you can afford...that way you won't regret it later.

Yeah I think you're right ima settle with the 2070s. Thanks so much for the help!

Also, I'm very impressed by how fast you guys replied that was nuts. Thumbs up from me to the community.

that's what i would do as well...that way if you want a fancy 1440p high refresh monitor in the future or maybe even a VR headset you'll have a good GPU that can take more.
