Best GPU to pair with 3700X

Hi all,

 

I was wondering what the best GPU to pair with a 3700X is? I was thinking 2060 super or 2070 super but I am not sure. I am also open to the newest RTX 30 series cards.

 

Feedback is appreciated!

If you need me to follow up on something, please quote or tag me.

if your worried about cpu bottleneck, there won't be one. i have my 3700x paired with a 3080, no bottleneck. i would just go with the best card that fits your needs/budget.

Depends on your screen resolution and FPS/MHZ.

Personally, I think that anything in between a 1080TI and an RTX 3080 is a good fit. So RTX 2070 super, 2080, 2080 super, 2080TI, 3060TI, 3070, 3070TI, Rx 6700xt, Rx 6800, Rx 6800xt. I used to have a 2070 Super on my R7 3700x and it ran a 2K screen ok in AAA titles.

A 2060 super would work too but it's a low end and won't age as well.

Get the best card you can afford.

 

And with GPU prices taking a dump today, today is a VERY good day to get a card.
