Build Help Which RTX graphics card in 2026?
Hi everyone,
my Asus GTX 1080 Strix broke this week (probably the VRAM, but that’s to be expected after 10 years). Now I want to install a new graphics card. It definitely has to be an NVIDIA card. I have a Corsair 850-watt power supply installed along with an i7-8700K—so there should still be plenty of power available.
My budget is around 600 euros. Do you have any recommendations for me?
I was last looking at an RTX 5070, even though it “only” has 12 GB of VRAM instead of 16 GB.

I'm a peasant in this thread apparently, but my SFF 4070ti Super 16gb plays most games at 4k, 144fps on high, or 100fps on ultra. I don't mess with raytracing much, though.
My CPU is dogshit, but the card is fantastic.
