New GPU

[kb5zue]

With a little bit of luck, my new GPU is just around the corner.  My current system is:

 

CPU:  AMD FX 8370 (No overclocking, running at 4.134 Ghz)

Mobo:  Asus TUF Sabertooth FX990 R3.0

Ram:  Corsair Vengeance 32 Gigs DDR3 2133

SSD:  Samsung 850 Pro 512GB

GPU:  Nvidia GeForce 660 (2 gigs video ram)

Sound:  Bose Companion 5

OS:  Windows 10, 64bit Home

Game:  World of Warcraft, Battle for Azeroth

Budget:  $500 USD

 

Okay, first off, don't bother telling me to upgrade the mobo, CPU or ram.  The system works great as it is and the current setup is less than a year old.  It works great and I don't have any problems with it other than the video card is in need of a serious upgrade.  Only play one game and that is World of Warcraft and my system hardware performs just fine but with some pixelation on behalf of the video card.  Hence, I only want to upgrade/update the video card and since the money going for the card is what I call "free money" basically meaning that someone else is going to pay for it, the choice is mine.

 

So, when the money/check shows up next week I want to go ahead and order a new card to replace my current GeForce card, just can't decide which card to look serious at.  Was contemplating an RX580 or a 1060 but today I saw a deal from Newegg for a 1070 at $469 give or take.  Should this be the route that I should take?

 

I built this machine myselrf and have never had a problem, not one, so would like to keep it that way.  I'm looking for a video card that will last a pretty good while, just like the rest of the system.  Looking forward to thoughts, both good and bad.  Thanks for taking the time to read this post.

Are you in the US, because that's a silly price for a 1070. I can buy a 1080 for that money with change for food.

I wouldn't go higher than a 1060 3GB with the FX 8370. It's just too weak to handle beefy GPU's.

used 1070 would be better. saves some cash.
