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?

I bought the wrong motherboard....so I'm out of budget for a GPU now. So I'll be saving up for a whole new system.

I ordered the right mobo but I think this thread smacked some sense into me. I need to just do a full upgrade.
