I bought a new monitor, 1080p 144hz. I can currently push about 100-144 FPS in most games with my current build, but I want to be able to get a fairly steady 144 FPS with max or almost max settings on Borderlands 3 when it comes out. Picking a gpu 6 years ago was easy, amd was basically garbage and after that you spent as much as you could afford on nvidia. Now it seems nvidia has 3 different series that kind of make sense ;10, 16, and 20 series. Amd has Vega, rtx 20, and rtx 500.
current specs:
I5-3570k overclocked to 4.2
GTX Titan
16 gb ddr3
Ga-z77x-ud5h
I worry that at 144fps my older cpu might bottleneck the gpu, it’s current overclocked has been stable at barely anything above stock voltage, so I’m hoping to push it to at least 4.5ghz.
My budget is about $300, though if I can do it for $200 I would be much much happier. I’m not trying to future proof, I just want 1080p at about 144 FPS for current games, just to get through the next 2 or so years. I’d like to take advantage of FreeSync, or g-sync with a 10 or 20 series.
Any help and opinions are appreciated.
