So I had a 2070 in mine, and updated last year to a 4070ti. I'm not going to lie to you here, the difference hasn't been earth shattering. I mean it's obviously better, but if you are gaming in 1080p, you should still be good for a bit yet. Games are released so horrendously optimized anymore, it doesn't matter if you have your own personal nuclear power plant powering a video card the size of Texas, it's still going to suck.

That’s what I was afraid of. I was hoping to at least get a big generational upgrade.

I’m going to wait and see how AMD handles this new GPU, and if it continues to be available in a few months at a good price, I might consider moving to them since nvidia is more focused on fake frames.

Sigh… PC gaming used to be a little more accessible. :’(
