[SOLVED] Gigabyte aorus 3060 master or 3070 gaming oc

[forumsgr]

Hi guys,
I have an i5 10600K, z490 MB gigabyte aorus and chieftech A-135 PSU 650W, Arctic 34 Cooler duo esports.

I have the option for aorus 3060ti master or 3070 gaming oc at almost the same cost.
Question: 3060 and overcloacked or 3070 as is (the above two models strictly)
PSU wise: Can the Chiefetech support them?
Monitor: 3060 with 1080p 144hz 24" monitor (and probably achieved in Ultra Settings) or 3070 with 1440p 144Hz 27" monitor (and probably not achieved in Ultra Settings but may achieved with high)?

Thanks

A 10 year old CHIEFTECH PSU has no business being in service still. I would absolutely NOT trust it.

Obviously a RTX3070 will outperform a 3060Ti, so if they're the same cost, go with the 3070. Sounds like the difference is going to be in the monitor (a 3060Ti can certainly run a 1440p monitor)

Sounds like that 3060Ti is overpriced if it’s nearly the same as the 3070. There is so little difference in performance between the 3060Ti and 3070 I would try an find a cheaper 3060Ti.

Go with the better card if you can get it for the same price.
Surprisingly good reviews for that psu you have, that isn't usually the case for chieftec TBH
