I currently have a PC with an i-5 2400.
I bought a GTX 1060 when my old card went out, because I knew i was going to upgrade at some point. Well, that some point is now, because the i-5 is lagging with just basic operations.
Now the issue: My work software is Chief Architect and The Adobe Suite. My requirements are more for rendering and ray trace. With some new Steam games in between. According to the software company, I really need 8 cores with multi-threading. I really do not want to invest 600 bucks+ And was looking at the following on New Egg for under 500: ( I would prefer not to spend that much) I currently have 2- 4000 MB cards. which is barely enough .
So any recommendations on something cheaper? Is this adequate, or do i need to bite the bullet and spend more?
