I want to upgrade my gpu as much as possible without having to upgrade anything else. Maybe I wait for Nvidia 5000 series. But I need to know how much my power supply can handle.

If I search online I get inconsistent advise, so I desided to make a post here.

So the question is really, what is the best gpu I can use with this setup? 


 

Preferred gpu: Nvidia

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: 1440p gaming. Mostly gpu intensive.

Build age: 3 years old

Current build: Power supply: 700w, Silentiumpc vero L3 Bronze https://www.silentiumpc.com/en/product/vero-l3-bronze-700w/

Motherboard: b560, Gigabyte aorus pro ax https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/B560-AORUS-PRO-AX-rev-10/support#support-dl-utility

GPU: 3060ti, Gigabyte eagle 8gb gddr6 https://www.gigabyte.com/Graphics-Card/GV-N306TEAGLE-8GD-rev-20#kf

CPU: i5 11400f, Intel https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/sku/212271/intel-core-i511400f-processor-12m-cache-up-to-4-40-ghz/specifications.html

Ram: 2x 8gb 3200MHz ddr4

Other: 3x 140mm fans, 2x nvme M.2 pcie 4, 1x mouse, 1x keyboard, 1x headset

 

Also I have been looking at this sheet: https://www.silverstonetek.com/downloads/PSU/GPU-supportlist.pdf

According to the sheet I can put a RTX 4070 Ti Super in my build. Do you know if this is true?

Welcome to the Forums! 700 watts is enough for the RTX 4070 Ti Super, and I think it is a pretty good upgrade for what you plan to do. YOu may want to consider the 7900XTX, but since you prefer Nvidia, the 4070 Ti Super is good enough. Have a good day!

Welcome to the Forums! 700 watts is enough for the RTX 4070 Ti Super, and I think it is a pretty good upgrade for what you plan to do. YOu may want to consider the 7900XTX, but since you prefer Nvidia, the 4070 Ti Super is good enough. Have a good day!

I am human and am therefore prone to error, so I apologize if I make mistakes and I hope you understand.

Have a Nice Day!

My power supply has one daisy chained 6+2-pin power connector. Is it a problem?

It will work fine. There is a reason why it is daisy-chained, and it doesn't effect GPU performance unless the PSU wattage is low for your GPU. Have a good day!
