My 2080ti died today. I haven't been keeping up with PC hardware, what are some good replacements/upgrades? I game at 1440p and I'd like to be able to go max settings at 60fps.

From my quick research it seems like the 4070 super (or super ti) is good but I'm also curious what AMD is offering. My budget is pretty flexible but ideally id like to keep it around 1250 CAD

I'm running a 7900XT and run most things maxed out or nearly so at 1440. FSR may not be as effective as DLSS but it still gives a nice boost to framerates. I got mine for about 900 CAD this summer, so if you're willing to put in the extra cash, an XTX will get you some extra performance on top of that.

For example, on CP2077, I only have a few settings below max, and have raytracing on Ultra (which is the 2nd highest setting), and I don't think I ever go below 60FPS. I have FSR on, but no framegen. I think during gameplay, I wouldn't be able to tell the difference if I turned the other options any higher, but my framerate would drop below 60.

What are some games that you currently play or expect to play, for reference?
