I'm looking to build a PC with a budget between $1,000 and $1,500 and need advice on the best GPU I can get within that price range. I'm hoping to find something that's new, fairly future-proof, and able to handle a 2K monitor.

If you can pick up some components like the case or RAM from places like Facebook Marketplace, you could get the 5070 Ti for $750 and still have a decent budget of $750 left for the rest.
Heard good things about the 9070 XT too. Definitely worth considering if you can find it.
How about the 5090? If you really want power, but I guess that depends on your overall budget.
Finding a GPU at MSRP these days feels like chasing unicorns, doesn't it? Sometimes you get lucky, but it can be really tough.
You might want to go for a 7600 non-X paired with a 5070 Ti, which you can snag for around $850. Just keep in mind, that could lead to a pretty basic build if you're only leaving $650 for the rest of the parts.
Yeah, if everything other than the GPU is just $650, you've got to watch how you spend that budget!
You might want to look at the RTX 5070. It seems to be a solid option for that price range.
I just ordered my RTX 5070 Ti and I can’t wait for it to arrive! Almost went with the regular 5070, but I held out a bit longer.
I think that one might be a bit overkill. The RTX 6000 Pro has also been mentioned, but again, it’s a heavier investment.
