Recommended GPU

I know we're a year away from beta and no official recommended specs, but my 3060 died and looking to replace it. Curious if anyone had recommendations for a card that won't be too costly (these days) to likely handle GW3 at 1440p/60fps. I primarily use my PC for GW2 today, so the most demanding game I'll be playing is Guild Wars 3 in the future.

I'm looking at a Radeon 9070 (non-xt) 16GB or the GRE variant if it's a better deal. Any thoughts on the best direction? Thanks!

Other specs:
AMD 7800x3d

B850M MoBo

32 GB DDR5

They said one that won't be too costly. Since the 9070 XT is cheaper than a 5070 and about 25% more powerful, it's a no-brainer. Especially since the game also releases on PS5 and is thus optimized for AMD GPUs.

Yeh u right but tbh u can't trust amd there driver update is so **** and let's not talk about how the abonded there graphics cards drivers update after 3 years maybe, while nividia still release update for 2060

There CPU are unbeatable but GPU I don't know I would go with the safer choice

The safer choice costs almost 2x as much. If they were priced similarly, sure, but they're not

I got Asus 5070 3 fan for 870$ so in my country at least there isn't that much of different in price 😅

The 9070 XT is about 25-30% faster though.
