Hello so I am looking to upgrade my gpu from a rtx 2070 super to something good for 1440p gaming. I originally was looking at getting the rx 7900xtx but it is a little more then what I can afford. I was thinking about the 7900 GRE or the 7900xt but I am open to anyone suggestions

So what I take away from that is. The 7900 GRE is good when you overclock it

You won't go wrong with a 7800XT, 6950XT, 7900GRE or a 7900XT.

Or the RTX 4070 Ti Super 16GB.

When overclocked, it matches the 4070 Ti at 1440p and Ti Super at 4K. How much do these 3 cost in your area?

It depends on if you want the latest features like ray tracing abd path tracing. If you wamt these features, go for nvidia, 4070 ti super or 4070 super.

I don't really care about ray tracing and that right now I am just looking to stream and play games in 1440p or 4k

But also since I am now using a ryzen 7 5800x3d should I go with the cheaper rtx 4070 super it will still give me 1440p gaming and 4k gaming it will definitely be an upgrade compared to my rtx 2070 super

Is the 4070 Super cheaper than the 7900 GRE?
