Question GPU suggestion for current build / needs?

[ChristianO]

I am looking to upgrade my GPU after almost 6 years. I have a 1440p monitor and am having trouble running most games. I usually hit around ~30 frames. I tried using a Red Devil RX 580 for 1440p gaming and didn't get much improvement.
Any suggestions? I have more than enough overhead in terms of my PSU but I included some specs just because I am unsure if bottle necking would occur.

Here are my current specs:

CPU: Intel i7-4770k

Memory: 16GB G.Skill Sniper RAM

Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-Z87X-UD3H

Graphics Card: Zotac Geforce GTX 770 w/ 4GB

Thank you for your suggestions!

I think GTX 1060 will get you fine 60fps at 1080p, but I'd go with 1070 for a better experience at 1440p.

1070 or 1070ti? I've heard they were all good, I am just tired of 30 fps all the time. 😆

if you can afford a 1070Ti then that is obviously what to go for.
will handle 1440p just fine, and do really well at 1080p.

The reason you didn't get anywhere with the RX580, is because that card is basically a 1060, and neither of those cards are any good at resolutions higher than 1080p.

How about you give us your budget for the new card, and your country as well so we know where to look.

I think I decided with a 2060, they seem reliable for 1440p gaming. About 350-400 is my price range.

For good gaming experience at 1440p I will suggest you to get a RTX 2060 or RTX 2070
