Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best GPU for 1440p gaming under $500?

The RTX 4070 Super is the top 1440p performer when it dips under $500 — it handles all modern games at high/ultra settings at 1440p. The RTX 4060 Ti 16GB is the budget-conscious pick at $350–400, offering more VRAM than the 8GB version for better future-proofing. Check the daily rankings above for current prices.

How much VRAM do I need for 1440p gaming?

8GB VRAM is sufficient for most 1440p games in 2026, but some titles (Cyberpunk 2077 at max settings, Alan Wake 2) can exceed 8GB. The 12GB RTX 4070 Super and 16GB RTX 4060 Ti 16G provide meaningful headroom. If you plan to use this GPU for 2–3 years, 12GB+ is the safer choice.
