Hey everyone! I'm upgrading my PC that I built in 2020. I just added more RAM, and now I'm on the hunt for a new GPU to replace my aging 2060 Super. I'd love to run games on max settings and get good performance for VR as well. My CPU is an i7-9700. If you need more details, just ask – this is my first time going through an upgrade myself. Thanks in advance!

Before you decide, what power supply do you have? Also, what's your budget? Knowing that will help narrow down the options!
If you want to max out your games, consider upgrading both your GPU and CPU. For your CPU, the Ryzen 7 7800X3D is great, and for the GPU, you can't go wrong with an RTX 5070 Ti. Don’t forget to grab a solid motherboard and an 850W 80+ Gold PSU to support everything!
Thank you!
If your goal is to get the best bang for your buck, check out the 4070 Ti or the 4070 Ti Super. AMD's 7800 XT is a solid equivalent as well. Just keep in mind, the GPU market is pretty tough right now. Try not to overspend; you might find good deals under $500 if you keep an eye on eBay!
The AMD 7800 XT is a fantastic card! Just be patient with pricing.
I’ll check the PSU tomorrow, but I'm in Europe and my budget is about €500 to €600.
