Need help choosing a graphics card
Posted by Choice-Counter-6089@reddit | buildapc | View on Reddit | 7 comments
building my first PC. I currently have everything I need for my build except my GPU. my setup is
MSI MAG x870 tomahawk mobo
RYZEN 7 9800x3d CPU
32GB of DDR5 RAM
850W PSU
what is a good graphics card choice? usually do 1080p but would like to run 1440 occasionally. I looked into the Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB but have heard mixed reviews. I like that price range. I would be open to spending a bit more just trying to get a bang for my buck

Yeah definitely 9070XT sapphire nitro version is more reliable i think. What case and fans u got ? Airflow is important

I've got a morovol case with 3 fans in front and 1 in the back. And my CPU cooler is a phantom 120se

Your build right now is kinda overkill for 1440p tbh
With 9070xt you can consistently get above 120 fps on 1440p

That's awesome to hear. If I wanted to upgrade to 4k 60 would I need anything else or just a good GPU?
Puzzleheaded-West159@reddit
Yep it's good enough for that too.

Sweet. Would you recommend going ahead and getting a better GPU? My budget is 700

the 9070XT is the best gpu you can get for $700
