Question Gtx 1060 6gb xtreme upgrade

[BrennB]

Current setup
Ryzen 5 3600
Bf450-f rog board
Corsair 750w psu
Corsair rgb 16gb ram
current gpu : gtx 1060 6gb xtreme

someone local is selling a gtx 1080 8gb Seahawk £250

would this gtx 1080 be a good upgrade to run games at 144hz 1080p?

Personally, I would spend the extra 50 an get a 5600xt, or RTX 2060 KO. Then at least you have something with a warranty.

Are either of them cards decent to run 144 hz at 1080 my main games I play are BR so warzone and stuff like that? I usually play medium/low anyways

 

[logainofhades]

Yes those cards are quite good for 144hz 1080p, with similar performance, to a 1080.

So something like this?

One of these would probably be better. I have a hard time recommending MSI currently.

The radeon pulse amazon one refers me to a pulse radeon BE and states arrives between 15-18 dec, I am too impatient lol, Never thought finding a new gpu would be this hard there seems to be 0 around..
