I just got my first ultrawide monitor with a resolution of 3440 x 1440 at 144Hz, but my PC is struggling to keep up while gaming. Here are my current specs: an RTX 2060 Super GPU, a Ryzen 5 5600 CPU, 32GB DDR4 3600MHz RAM, a 500W EVGA PSU, and a Gigabyte B450M DS3H motherboard. I'm looking for upgrade suggestions that can help me achieve better performance in games. Thanks in advance!

Consider the 9060 XT 16GB. It should work fine with your current 500W PSU too, but keep in mind that it might depend on what else you're running on your system.
If you're considering a GPU upgrade, keep in mind you might also need to upgrade your power supply. Have you thought about your budget for this upgrade? It can get a little tricky if you don’t have that figured out yet.
Sorry for not mentioning my budget! I think around $600 would be reasonable. I'm not after the latest tech, just something that can run games at high/ultra settings smoothly, around 60fps or more.
Yeah, with those specs, a decent budget should get you a good GPU and PSU. Just keep an eye on the market because prices can fluctuate.
Interesting! Do you think it would be better to go for the 9060 XT or just upgrade the PSU first and get a different GPU?
