I'm currently using a second hand GTX1050ti (Yeah, I know lmao), and the next big games I really want to play are Baldur's gate 3 and Starfield.

My other specs are quite beefy, since this is also my work computer: Ryzen 9 5900X 64GB RAM ddr4

My monitor has a 1080p resolution, with a 60Hz refresh rate and I'm pretty happy gaming with that. Would an rx6700xt suffice? Is it overkill or just barely enough?

Thanks!

I have a RX5700XT for this exact purpose but at 144hz and it still fits the bill. It should be more than good.

5700xt will do 80-100 fps in most games at 1440 fairly easily.

I was running it at 3440x1440 until I bought an Odyssey G9 where it was struggling.
