Which gpu should i buy

I am thinking of upgrading soon to a 5070 or a 9070 xt from my 6750 xt, my cpu is a 5600x but i plan to upgrade in the future (in a year probably) to a 5800x3d. The upscaling of the gpu is very important to me so I’m leaning more towards the 5070.

My VRAM is dying on my 3090

While I'm going to consider going to a specialty repair shop for my GeForce RTX 3090, I am consider replacing it. (I suspect the VRAM is dying due to visual snow and hardware lag. And cables do not seem to be the cause. )

I went overkill with this card when building my PC. I thought I would be playing graphically intensive games. I did not. I mostly played games from 20+ years ago and league of Legends, and some indie games. I suspect this trend to continue

I have a dual monitor setup and am always putting a video on my 2nd monitor while I do something windowed mode in my main monitor. (Often, it's just children's programming for my kids as I do w/e in my main monitor.)

Do y'all have any suggestions for my use case? I feel like it's a good opportunity to buy a more affordable graphics card since I'm not utilizing it.

Current PS5 + 3070 Ti laptop owner — Build now with 5070 Ti/9070xt, or hold out for next-gen?

Hey everyone,

Looking to get some advice from the community.

Currently gaming on an RTX 3070 Ti laptop alongside a PS5. It gets the job done, but I’m planning to build my first desktop by the end of the year.

I’m torn between an RTX 5070 Ti or RX 9070 XT, but hesitating because current-gen cards are already nearly two years old and prices are high. With leaks suggesting AMD's 10000 series might launch in 2027, I'm considering holding out.

If you were in my shoes, would you wait for next-gen or build now? And if buying now, between the 5070 Ti and 9070 XT, which one is more future-proof?

Appreciate any thoughts!

Thank you!

The probelm is with my gpu the 1060. everytime i play a game like fortnite or stumble guys my gpu gets so hot and thats just in the lobby. I recently build it so i wasnt even able to play any games. at one point it got to like 90 celcius. btw the gpu is the blower fan one. the card with the one fan. ok so yea i took it apart and repasted it but that didnt help at all. I even have 4 case fans. So at this point I js want to get a diffrent gpu but I cant because I dont have any way of making money even if i try selling things online it asks for my ssn which my mom doesnt want to give to me so im kind of stuck. I am js asking if anyone has a spare gpu or an older one hit me up ill gladly take it. and if oyu can ship it out that would be great. some good options are rx 580, a 980, or a 1660. but I will gladly take anything because i am just trying to play games on my pc. thasnks so much thi wuold help out a lot.

Hi new here and I’m trying to get a better graphics card but my friends said I’ll have to get more parts to go with it as well. What should I be buying. (Gaming PC)

I’m not as well versed as others with buying new parts could someone give me a route to follow on what I should be buying. I bought control resonant yesterday and had to play everything on medium-low graphic settings :(

What Graphics Card should I get?

Okay, I have a pre-built I wanna upgrade. There is a problem. No Graphics Card. But another problem. A small 310W power supply. Gemini and ChatGPT says RTX 3050 6GB, unless I wanna upgrade. I commented on many videos and people said to get a 1650 or a 3050. Should I get the 3050 because of DLSS, or some other card.
