What’s the best GPU upgrade from a 3060 Ti?
Asked by
ChillGamer77
I currently have a solid CPU (5900x3d), but I'm feeling like my GPU is holding me back. I can't run games like Sons of the Forest or other demanding titles smoothly at good settings—I'm experiencing frame drops. I want to stick with Nvidia; can anyone suggest the best graphics card upgrade available right now?

For great value, check out the 9060 XT 16GB for about $350. If you're looking for Nvidia, the 5060 Ti 16GB is good at $429. If high frame rates at 1440p are what you want, consider the 9070 XT.

It really depends on your budget. A used 3080 could be a decent upgrade; it offers good value compared to newer models. However, with your 5900x3d, the ideal upgrade also hinges on your resolution. By the way, what's your monitor setup?

I upgraded from a 3060 Ti to a 5070 and the difference is huge! I saw a 50% increase in raster performance at 4K without frame generation.

If we’re talking price-to-performance, longevity, and being future-proof, the 5070 Ti is the best pick right now, typically priced at around $750.

It depends on what you're looking for. If you're up for a 60 series card, keep an eye out for any deals on the 5060 Ti 16GB. I've seen some really good offers recently.

Are you sure you have a 5900x3d? Did you mean 5800x3d?

ChillGamer77: Yeah, my bad! I misspoke—still a solid CPU, though.
