I have an i7 3770k and a gtx 680ti.
I want to upgrade only the gpu as it is not valid now and i have a budget of 270 to 320$. And iam only targetting 1080 ultra for just casual gaming.so i have gathered a collection of gpus. I just want recommendation for which one to buy:- NVIDEA:-
Gtx 1660ti/super, 1070 or 980 ti.
AMD:-
Rx 5600 xt, rx 5700, rx 590 or rx 580 8gb
 
Solution
I would just go ahead and get the RX5600XT, with the bios update. It's a monster card at 1080p, and even gives good results at 1440p.

Whilst the RX5700 will be faster, there isn't any need for it.

The 1660ti/Super is pretty darn good at 1080p, but won't max everything out like the RX5600 will

This depends on you. Do you care about ray tracing? There's like 6 games that i know of that supports ray tracing today. How long do you want to play at ultra? The 5600 xt would be perfectly fine here today. 2 years from now? Not so sure. While i do love the rx 580 but it's showing its age so it wont be able to run ultra at 60fps anymore. The gtx 980 ti is the same with gtx 1070 but consumes a lot more power. So discard the 980 ti. I'm assuming that the rtx 2060 cost more than 320$ in your region since it doesnt make the list. So in the end, grab the rx 5600 xt as it is the best among all in your list. Get sapphire pulse rx 5600 xt.

Can we get a bit more information here, what kinds of games are you going to be playing. What is your monitors refresh rate? What about your ram? how much of that do you have? PSU, whats the brand and wattage on that?
