Looking to build an iRacing computer built for 3 monitors and and need a GPU capable of running Graphics Shaders for dirt track racing. Anybody have any suggestions on which Graphics Card would work best?
 
Solution
Price range would be $300-$500 on the GPU. Need to check on the monitor resolutions.
Would a Nvidia GTX 1660Ti do well?
a 1660 ti is on the lower end of that price range, at around 250$, and i would not recommend it.
a 1660 super costs around 30$ less but is literally 1 fps slower in most games

Again, it depends on resolution.
If you have 3 1080p monitors, a 1660 super might actually get you a 60fps on medium-high settings.
if you have 3 1440p or 4k, thats... gonna need higher gpu power.

I would recommend the 2060 or 2060 ko.
(the ko is a stripped down version by evga that costs 20 dollars less, if you can find it.)
its msrp is 300$ (ko is 279$)
Thats gonna give you a very good 1080p, and acceptable 1440p performance.
depending on resolution and your budget...
get whatever you can, its not like a higher tier card will perform worse in that specific title.

If youre looking for the best bang for buck cards in general
the 1650 super and 1660 super are tremendous value, but are low-mid tier
the 5700 flashed to xt, or rtx 2060 non super are both good value, though flashing the bios is for the hacky types, so i wouldnt recommend it if youre non comfortable with that.
2070 super is also a way better value than the 5700xt costing just a little more
above that, just get the best tier you can from nvidia
