What's your CPU, monitor resolution/refresh rate, and what kind of games or other software?

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

This is probably the best value right now from the US part picker comparison

https://pcpartpicker.com/product/HWbCmG/msi-radeon-rx-5700-xt-8-gb-mech-oc-video-card-rx-5700-xt-mech-oc 

hard to beat a 5700xt at $360

you could also get a 2070 super to get a bit more performance but it is $500, so the value isn't great in comparison

RX 5700Xt without a question, you'll even have some change left in your pocket.

i can afford a 2070 super, its a little more than i want to spend tho, is the regular 2070 still good? the 5700xt looks like a really good deal but i want to see ray tracing, so i need a nvidia gpu.

ryzen 5 2600, 1080p 60hz monitor (might get a 4k or 1440p monitor after i upgrade), i play alot of AAA games.

Get an RX 5700 of some kind

 

then buy a 1080p 144hz display, a bunch of new 1ms IPS displays just came out.

Yeah it's too much for the card imo get it on sale or wait for the new line up. Big Navi is supposed to have raytracing too so you can chose again then, but yeah it might be a while, who knows. End of year maybe, don't know if you can wait. 

The normal 2070 is at the level of a 2060 super, which is around let's say 7-10% slower than a 5700xt and more expensive. You will get the nvidia feature set then of course, not sure how much you looked into raytracing and DLSS, but at the moment it is still limited.

If you absolutely have to have it though there is not much of a choice:

 

$385: https://pcpartpicker.com/product/H7MTwP/msi-geforce-rtx-2070-8-gb-ventus-gp-video-card-rtx-2070-ventus-gp

$390: https://pcpartpicker.com/product/rZwkcf/pny-geforce-rtx-2060-super-8-gb-dual-video-card-vcg20608sdfppb

basically the same I would probably go with the 2070 to save a few bucks and I think also get a tiny bit more performance even.

 

or maybe you like the looks of a FE card for $400 https://pcpartpicker.com/product/FYrYcf/nvidia-geforce-rtx-2060-super-8-gb-video-card-900-1g160-2565-000 

 

I would honestly rather go AMD or wait for the 2070 super to come down to $450, but that's up to you.
