Hi,
I'm planning on upgrading my prebuilt gaming system that I bought with little knowledge of what I needed or what it contained, to what I now know I want.
I have an RTX2070 with a B450M-ds3h mobo, Ryzen 7 2700 and a 500W PSU. This has worked very well for 1440p gaming, although I've noticed stutter recently on a few games, like Rise of Tomb Raider especially in the Geothermal Valley, which I'm thinking is due to the poor VRM cooling on the mobo (I've OCd both the CPU and GPU, the former I now suspect being a bad idea on this mobo).
I'm planning to buy a 2080ti to play games at 4K 60. I know the PSU has to be upgraded and I'm presuming the mobo needs to be too. So would anyone mind suggesting suitable 650-750W PSUs and especially mobos for that card with a Ryzen 7 2700 please? Budget is mostly blown on the GPU (and the original impulse purchase of 2070 and underspecced mobo) so economy is desirable.
From my own guesswork i thought an MSI X470 Gaming Plus board (which would allow to upgrade the CPU in the future to a Ryzen 3000 series) and a Corsair RM650/750x PSU might be good.
Cheers
