I'm upgrading from a 4770 to a 9600. This is my budget free living room PC build. I'm trying to keep everything even bottleneck wise.

Helldovers is starting to chug like I put water in my cars gas tank. My Gtx1060 is...old.

What GPU should I upgrade to? I was looking at 2080s for around $200.

Does anyone have any better ideas?

So I'll be using Linux for gaming. But I know I can do the same in Linux. Other than Doom the dark ages, I see no games I'm interested in that may possibly need an upgrade in hardware. And I'm gonna assume if my 4770/1060 can run eternal at 60fps high/ultra 1080p I'll be fine for the future.

That seems like unreal engine 5 problems. I won't be buying games with unreal engine 5. I don't like the way they feel while playing.
