How much performance will I lose?

[hybrisptuga]

1st let me say I'm sorry for my bad English I'm not native speaker

 

I have been searching for some information on the topic of how much fps drop will I have using 2 monitors and can't find anything so I hope you guys can help me 

 

As of right now  I have 2 monitors 

• Aoc 27" ips 1440 165 hz's (primary) 
• Asus 24" ips 1080 60 hz's

 

I have a really old and reliable evga gtx 770 (ikik don't judge me ) 

 

As you can probably tell I haven't been able to play recent high demanding games for a few years (I decided I wouldn't buy a graphic card when I saw the prices going up like crazy) 

But looks like it's coming down a bit so I have 2 questions:

should I buy a rtx 3060 or do I need a 3070 at least to be comfortable ??? ( I don't necessarily need to run every game at 165fps but I don't wanna have to decide between 165fps medium quality or 100fps higher quality, if I can get high quality 144 fps it's enough for me) 

 

And how much is the difference in fps using 1 monitors 1440 vs the 2 monitors as I listed before (second monitor will only be used for music discord etc) 

 

Any help you guys can give ll be appreciated thank you!!!

Just do a Youtube search for 3060 vs 3070 1440p.

 

You'll get a few videos to watch to see what games perform at what level on both.  Since we don't know what you play.

Based on how long your previous GPU lasted, and nothing else: get the xx70 again.

Modern GPUs and CPUs won't be bothered with 2 monitors running at the same time.

Since you have a GTX 770, I'd assume that you also have an old CPU as well,so make sure you have decent CPU to pair with your new GPU.

As for the GPU choice, I really advise against RTX 3060/3070, they are usually much more expensive than their comparable AMD counterpart.

If you're going with 1440p, I'd suggest RX 6700 XT, usually much cheaper than RTX 3070 yet performs the same in non RT.

RT is not worth it yet, so there's no reason to go with RTX 3070 if you only game.

Thanks for the help as far as cpu goes I have a ryzen 5 3600 (old Intel mb died I had to replace mb and cpu, and ryzen was the choise I made hahah good enough for me) I never bought an AMD graphic, and always thought RT was the way to go, but if you say that I'll look into it, thank you for all the help!!!

To be clear, RT means ray tracing, and RT application in games now is still kinda bad, unless you really look for it, you won't even notice the difference.

Even if you still want to experience RT, RTX 3060/3070 RT performance is bad anyway, might as well skip it all together.

Yah I understand, I just though that RT was a bit more developed by now , but I'll take your word for it!!!
