What should i upgrade my Nvidia Geforce GTX 1060 3GB to for VR gaming??

[Surreal_steel]

https://www.redditstatic.com/desktop...mingPixel.pngI have a 2-year-old built pc with the following specs

• i7-8700 6 Core Processor (3.2GHz)
• 48GB 2400MHz DDR4 (2x8GB) (2x16GB)
• ASUS Prime Z370-P Coffee Lake ATX Motherboard
  and a 3GB GeForce® GTX 1060 Graphic Card HDMI/DVI ports
  I recently purchased an Oculus Rift s and after a few months of playing I’ve found issues with stalling and rendering, so I ran some different games and monitored task manager and found that my GPU is running at 97% for 3D all other seem to be quite minimal, and my CPU was sitting around 50 %
  I’ve been looking at a few upgrade but I have no idea what I’m looking at, some people have recommended the RTX 2080ti, others the RTX 2060 and recently people are telling me to look at RTX 3000’s series
  The only thing that’s really required is that I have 3 HDMI ports (I have two monitors and looking at a third) and at least one display port as the headset runs off of display port
  Any advice would be great, I’m looking at around £500 budget but can stretch to £700 if really needed

Thanks again

Hello Surreal_steel,

We can suggest a card for you but we will need to know the brand and model name or number of the PSU first as that may also need upgrading as well, your budget should cover both.

Entirely up to you but I would not use such a PSU with my hardware whether it was as expensive as what you have now let alone what you intend to upgrade to, if the PSU was any good it would have a minimum of a seven year warranty rather that the statutory two year European warranty.

Using your min/max budget as a guide

GIGABYTE GEFORCE RTX 2060 SUPER WINDFORCE OC 8G GRAPHICS CARD

CORSAIR TX650M Semi-Modular ATX PSU - 650 W Note the seven year warranty period.

so your saying i need to change my psu because of the warranty? and dropping it to a 650w is better the then 850w I have now?

and thanks ill look at the 2060 super

I did actually say that it was entirely up to yourself regarding the PSU, if you are happy to keep the present one it is not for me to say otherwise, I was doing what I should be doing and that was bringing to your attention that the present PSU is not of good quality, the length of any warranty period is indicative of the quality of a product, the two year warranty period on the 850W is what you must be offered by law and not a sign of confidence in the product.
