APPROXIMATE PURCHASE DATE: Sometime in the next month or so
BUDGET RANGE: I would say max $500 but can be a bit flexible
USAGE FROM MOST TO LEAST IMPORTANT: Rendering, editing, working with large presentation and CAD/CAM files
CURRENT GPU AND POWER SUPPLY: Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1080, Corsair RM 750X (2021 model)
OTHER RELEVANT SYSTEM SPECS:
Case: Phanteks Enthoo Pro M
PSU: Corsair RM750X (2021 model)
Motherboard: Asus ROG Strix B450-F Gaming
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5800X (upgraded from Ryzen 5 2600)
RAM: 32GB G.Skill DDR4-3600 (upgraded from 16GB Corsair Vengeance DDR4-3000)
CPU Cooler: Cryorig C5
SSD 1: Samsung 980 Pro 1TB (upgraded from 250GB Samsung 970 Evo)
SSD2: Samsung 1TB 860 Evo
GPU: Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1080
OS: Windows 11 Pro
PREFERRED WEBSITE(S) FOR PARTS: Newegg, Amazon, and I live in Southern California and have access to the Orange County Micro Center
COUNTRY OF ORIGIN: California, USA
PARTS PREFERENCES: I would prefer NVIDIA but if the AMD cards are better, I will consider them.
OVERCLOCKING: Maybe
SLI OR CROSSFIRE: No
MONITOR RESOLUTION: Dual 1920 x 1080 monitors, but looking to upgrade to 4K or 1440P
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: I have been making moderate upgrades to my system to extend its' useful lifespan and I'm looking to finish it with a new graphics card upgrade. Now that graphics cards are coming back in stock, I am looking to make a purchase hopefully sooner rather than later. I am looking for a midrange card, something like a 3060TI / 3070 or a Radeon 6700X / 6800X. I need a card with at least 2 HDMI ports, but if that's not possible I will have to buy DP cables. Are there any cards that I should watch out for or cards I should avoid?
I may also swap out the Cryorig cooler for a CLL at some point, but that's not a necessary purchase at the moment.
