I currently own a 3070, and while it's served me well, I'm starting to notice it's struggling with newer games and can't handle ultra settings anymore. I'm curious about dual GPU setups—do they still work well these days? If they're not a viable option, what would be a good GPU to aim for next, especially one that can handle 4K gaming? I've heard mixed opinions about the 40 series; some suggest skipping it and waiting for the 5080 or 5090 instead, but I'm not thrilled about the idea of my games relying heavily on AI-generated frames with the new DLSS. Additionally, I'm looking for something that can run high-graphic games at around 60-144 FPS on medium settings and competitive games at over 200 FPS on ultra. Any advice?

The 40 series does have AI upscaling and frame generation features, but you can choose to disable those options if you prefer. As for dual GPU setups, they're mostly obsolete these days unless you're using something like Lossless Scaling. If you're looking for a solid upgrade, you might also want to consider an AMD 7900XTX for great performance in high-end games.
But doesn't the 50 series really depend on frame generation? If I'm playing competitive games, I don't want more AI frames than real ones. Any thoughts on that?
