Okay so, long story short I was lazy and bought a prebuild from IBP when I was younger, (ring the shame bell from GoT). This is the build ~ https://www.loot.co.za/product/ibuypower-bb921-3-4ghz-i7-6700-tower-black-red-pc-pc/kgjk-4479-g770 for some reason the power supply is some large secret but after some digging I found out it’s an HPT 600 watt power supply. So here’s my issue I wanna run Warzone at 140 FPS, I have managed to squeeze 85-100 out of my current build but that makes the game look like mine craft. I don’t have to run on ultra but you know I’d like to hopefully run textures at normal. I was thinking of upgrading my GPU and power supply, along with swapping the air cooler out for liquid. Wondering if there’s a good nvidia card you lot would recommend In the $300-500 price range and what I’d all have to do to make it run without bottlenecking it too bad figuring on upgrading the PSU already.

Ok, you've got a GSync only monitor, so we need to stick with Nvidia GPUs. And it's 1080p.

Something like this Gigabyte RTX2070 = $400 would have no issues with that. It's slightly better than a GTX1080. Depending on whether you've got the 3GB or 6GB variant of the GTX1060, a RTX2070 could be 2+x faster than your current card.

An RTX2060 Super = $400 after MIR is pretty much the same performance as a RTX2070 (within 5%). You pay the same, but that cooler is better than the one on the 2070 I linked above.
What country are you shopping in?

What monitor do you have?

You're buying (for $500):
  • CPU cooler (don't need water cooling)
  • PSU
  • GPU

United States,

Monitor: Asus Rog Swift PG248Q,
and a 144hz 1440p Benq monitor. I don’t remember the model number off hand.

id be willing to spend up to 3-500 on the GPU alone Depending on what else I’d have to buy. I just don’t wanna get a sick GPU and then bottle neck it haha

The super looks awesome and I won’t have to change PSU’s, thank you!
