I currently have an AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT 12GB graphics card paired with a Ryzen 9 5900X processor. I'm facing performance issues with certain games like Marvel Rivals and Expedition 33, often needing to tweak very specific settings to make them playable. I'm considering switching to an Nvidia card, but I want to know if there are specific models I should look at as an upgrade. Alternatively, are there adjustments in the Adrenaline software that could help improve my current performance? Any advice would be appreciated!

It doesn't seem to be just an AMD vs Nvidia issue; it might just be that your current card is struggling to keep up. The RX 6700 XT is more of an entry-level card in the current gaming landscape. If you're looking for an upgrade, the NVIDIA 4070 Ti is a great option, around $600, and should give you a solid boost.
Before diving into a new GPU, do you have a budget set for your upgrade? Also, what's the resolution and refresh rate of your monitor? That info can really help in recommending the right card for you!
I'm running at 1920x1080 at 165Hz but I keep it capped at 165fps since I've heard there's no real benefit to going beyond the refresh rate.
I'm fine with spending $600 for a GPU upgrade in the future. At 1920x1080 and 165Hz, I notice annoying FPS dips in games like Marvel Rivals, particularly when playing characters like Bucky or Tank. But I figured it might just be an issue with the game itself.
