GPU upgrade

[Jasoncmor]

Hi all
I am looking for recommendations for a gpu upgrade.
The pc currently has a nvidia 1060 and an Intel 4x series i5, but this will also be upgraded.
Looking to spend upto £500 for a card, which will initially be used at 1080p then will upgrade the monitor to a 1440p res monitor down the line.
I've been looking at the nvidia 3080 & 4070, but wonder if they are over kill for 1080&1440 gaming?
I've always been an nvidia fanboy, but will to try ati if necessary.


Thanks in advanced

Although, as a B-Grade you could follow the instructions and message them here: https://forums.overclockers.co.uk/threads/b-grade-clearance-and-forum-deals.18925626/ with a £500 offer for a GRE card like this one: https://www.overclockers.co.uk/b-gr...-16gb-gddr6-pci-express-bg-gra-asr-01795.html

Not overkill, a 4070 or 7800 XT is the minimum I'd want for longer-term 1440p gaming. You can get a MSI 4070 for £450 at OCUK, though it is white, the black/silver version is £20 more.

That 7900 gre looks great for the price if you are not bothered about Nvidia.
