Looking for a new GPU for 1080p gaming in high quality. Is the RX6700XT a good choice? (feddit.it)

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!

The 5000 and 6000 series cards are really quality, and it's hard to go wrong with them. The 6700XT is definitely a great card.

I have a 6800XT (1440P/144FPS targets), but before that I was using a 5700 (non-XT) and was hitting 60FPS @ 1440p just fine in most games. If you have the money to spend, I think the 6700XT is a great pick for you right now, and will future-proof your build for a good while into the future.
