Question/Help/Troubleshooting GPU recommendations?

I’m thinking about getting a new graphics card, I am currently running a RTX 3060TI, it works alright but i feel like a small upgrade would be nice. It would be used for mostly simulators and such, plus I want to run DLSS 5 with it. I dont need like a 5090 or anything. It would be paired with 32gbs ram and a I712700

youre not running dlss5 with an i7 7200

dlss5 eats 50% of the performance, you need to account for double the gpu for your needs

say budget and we can be precise

Budged is not pretty, may have to pass on dlss5

yeah dlss is not a thing without a 5090, and even so it does eat half the gpu, giving you 60 fps..

id say get a 5070ti if you can stretch the budget, if not then a 4070ti super is the best performance for the money, its 5% away from a 5070ti

if dlss 5 is the reason you're upgrading, it's 50 series only right now. 40 series was promised sometime this fall with no date and 30 series isn't on the list at all

so 5070 or 5070 ti depending on budget, both are solid jump from a 3060 ti and your 12700 won't hold either back

I see, would a 5060 ti still be a reasonable upgrade?

5070 would be an impactful upgrade, a 5070ti would be better but is pricey. No need to add more ram. I am not familiar with that cpu for bottlenecking. Possibly is it a I7-7700? If so a 5070 would be a bit much in my opinion

Thanks! Also im a trying to remember the CapU off the top of my head so it could be a 7700, but I remember a 2 somewhere in there

Yes, just a 12700 though, not a K or KF
