[SOLVED] Upgrade GPU to RX 5700 XT or RTX 2070 Super

[Zanato]

Hi, I'm wondering if I can just upgrade my GPU to a RX 5700 XT or GeForce RTX 2070 Super with my current setup:

CPU: i7 6700K (4.0GHz) Socket 1151
CPU Cooler: CM H212
MB: MSI B150M PRO-VH
GPU: Sapphire Radeon RX480 Nitro+ OC 8GB GD5
RAM: G.Skill Kit 16GB DDR4 2400MHz Aegis (2 x 8GB)
SSD Samsung 750 Evo 500GB SATA III
HDD Western Digital 2TB SATA III 64MB Black
PSU: Seasonic M12II 620W Evo Edition 80+ Bronze

Can anyone please help? Any suggestions if more changes are necessary knowing I only want to game mostly single player games at 2560 x 1440 resolution and web browsing/watching movies?

Thanks

the rx 5700xt is good for 1440p performance but if you want to get high end graphics the 2070 is the way to go not to mention amd has some buggy drivers with the 5700 is just all depends on your budget

it will support both just fine the 6700k is still a good chip for its age and since your on lga 1151 if you ever wanted to upgrade you have the opportunity to
