I'm looking to upgrade my graphics card because I want to play Alan Wake 2 on ultra settings, but I'm only getting around 40-50 fps with my current RTX 4070 Ti Super. I've got a Samsung G6 1440P OLED monitor and here's my build details: Ryzen 7 7800X3D CPU, 64GB DDR5 RAM, and a good PSU. Should I go for the 9070XT, 5070 Ti, or the 5080?

Before upgrading, consider if you have Full Ray Tracing enabled. That feature puts a serious load on any GPU. Even high-end cards like the RTX 4090 can struggle to maintain smooth fps at ultra settings without frame generation. If you want a smoother experience, maybe adjust the ray tracing settings or look for a higher-end GPU like the 5090.

So you're saying there's really no hope for lower cards? That's a bummer!
