Hey everyone,
My GTX 780ti I currently use on my i7 4820k system (8gb of DD3 1666 RAM) is running out of steam on current games so I am considering an upgrade.
Now that the Nvidia Super cards are out I am a bit confused here. My interest is 1080p gaming, I don't have a 1440p panel and won't be buying one in the near future.
I basically want a gpu with which I can comfortably get another 2-3 years of quality HD gaming out of my rig till I have to completely replace it which seems inevitable at some point due to old CPU and mainboard.
So here are my thoughts:
Any advice is really appreciated, thanks everyone!

So here are my thoughts:
- GTX 1660ti: Might be sufficient now but I've seen benchmarks from very demanding games where the FPS on ultra settings on HD already went below 60 fps with a better CPU than mine.
- GTX 2060 Super: Probably the right balance of cost and power? I'd really like to have the 8gb VRAM. Suggestions on good aftermarket choices?
- GTX 2070 Super: I kind of want to get this one since my concept is buy once, cry once and then be happy. Then again probably vastly overpowered for what I want to do with it and not quite enough for serious 4K if I get to that point eventually. Maybe good for 1440p gaming though if you were to make that switch at some point? Would the rest of my system even hold up for that?
Any advice is really appreciated, thanks everyone!
