I'm looking to upgrade my older system primarily used for local storage and would love to play modern games at 1080p. Currently, I have an Asus GTX 650 just for display purposes, and I'm considering spending around €200 on a new GPU. Ideally, I'd like something used and prefer Nvidia cards. My case can fit a maximum GPU length of 295 mm. Here are my specs:
- **Case:** Fractal Design Define R4
- **PSU:** Corsair RM750i
- **Motherboard:** ASRock X99 Taichi
- **CPU:** Intel Xeon E5 2690V4
- **Cooler:** be quiet! Dark Rock 3
- **RAM:** 32GB DDR4-2400 ECC
- **SSD:** WD SN520 256GB
- **HDDs:** 2x Seagate Constellation 3TB
What GPU would be the best fit for my system around that budget?

I actually spotted an RTX 2080 for under €200, which sounds like a good deal. Just a heads up, though: the RX 6700 XT usually goes for around €250. If you prefer Nvidia and you're worried about bottlenecks, your Xeon E5-2690V4 might not fully utilize a 2080, so maybe consider something slightly less powerful if you're concerned about that.
The RTX 2080 Super or the RX 6700 XT would be solid choices if you can find them within your budget. It really depends on your local market, but those GPUs are great for gaming at 1080p. Just keep an eye on prices for what’s available in your area.
