Currently trying to upgrade my GPU to the Zotac RTX 3070 however I am also curious about other potential options.

 

Additionally for clarity, with my current case and cooler fan layout there is little room for larger sized GPU's that are over 290 mm.

Have you considered RX 6700XT/6750XT? They perform the same or faster than 3070 in everything except RT, and for much cheaper too.

And IDK what are you looking to get from this post, case/GPU recommendations? You didn't specify.

Thanks for the reply! I have seen those as potential options as well but was worried about switching overt from Nvidia Products cuz I thought that there was some compatibility issues.

 

In order to clarify more, I am mostly looking for GPU recommendations and brought up the case issue to highlight that I might have trouble fitting some of the larger cards in my current setup and I do not know if it would be in my best interest to get a bigger case or not.
