GPU Upgrade
Currently, I have gtx 1060 6 GB and I want to make some upgrade this summer, what do you guys recommending me to get? what series? which card? In general, almost everything works perfectly with 1060, but I wish maybe in future to get 2k or 4k monitor so I can be ready
Maybe reconsider your thoughts on 4K. It's not super impressive, but extremely expensive. 1440p is the gamer's sweet spot for now and I'm quite certain it will stay like this for a couple of years. Roughly 70% of all PC gamers still game on 1080p because GPUs are so expensive.

An RTX 2060 will crush every game on 1080p and will work decently on 1440p. RTX2070 if you want more 1440p performance. RTX2080 for 1440p/144hz gaming. I really think the RTX 2060 is the first GPU in years which hits exactly the performance a lot of gamers want for a reasonable price.

what games do you play? also instead of a 4k60hz panel id recommend 1440p144 as the difference in resolution isnt noticeable but the higher refresh rate is

1440p is fine too, I play almost all new games being released (big titles), nothing specific currently...
I'd wait until nvidia next gen cards come out.

^This

Was going to say the same thing, your card is more than fine...worry about getting your new monitor first, and then either way wait for new cards...we're in the middle of release cycles.

yeah i currently have 3x 1440p and image quality is good
i prefer the higher framerates over some minor upgrades in image quality tbh

also how much are you looking to spend?

400-500 euros, but the problem is in my country graphics cards are very expensive for some reason, here some stores still selling gtx 1060 for 400, like wtf

damn that is like double the price

at this point using a reship does really make sense, even after fees you will save money

i think right now for 400-500$ a 2070 is just outside of your budget as those start at 500ish

i can recommend a used 1080ti, i got mine for exactly 500
if you want to save some money a normal 1080 will do the job very well too
What kind of games do you play and what do you mostly use your computer for?
