Hey everyone! I'm planning to upgrade my GPU in a few months and thought I'd start gathering some opinions now to set a clear goal. Here's my current setup:
- **CPU**: AMD Ryzen 5 5600
- **GPU**: GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER OC 4G (single fan)
- **RAM**: Kingston 16GB, 2400MHz
- **SSD**: Kingston NV2 1TB M.2 PCIe Gen4 x4 NVMe
- **Motherboard**: ASUS PRIME B450M-A II
- **PSU**: Acbel HK450 (I'm definitely upgrading this as well.)
I just recently upgraded my CPU and motherboard, so I'll be focusing solely on the GPU. I'm considering the 5070 Ti, but I've heard mixed reviews about its performance. I don't usually play AAA titles and I'm hoping for a GPU that will last me 5-6 years. What do you all think would be a good choice?

Sounds like the 5070 Ti is a mixed bag for some people. I was considering it too but folks mentioned that it can be overpriced for its performance. Maybe look into the 9060 XT for a budget option. It's said to be capable even in 2030!
Don't forget about your power supply! 450W is probably not going to cut it for most upgrades. Make sure to check the minimum wattage for the GPUs you’re looking at to avoid issues down the road.
Yeah, I totally agree. My PSU is pretty old too, so upgrading that alongside the GPU is definitely on my list!
