During the pandemic, I rebuilt my computer but with GPU prices being insanely inflated, I decided to limp along with my old GPU (a GeForce GTX 760). The issue is that I have a 4k monitor and my current card can barely handle my desktop, never mind a game.

I have heard that prices are coming back down to a sane level, so I am looking for part suggestions. I am not looking to play new games or ultra high settings, but I would want to at least be able to handle older/indie games, on medium settings, at a steady 30 FPS.

    I don’t want to bag on you but there is a reason why 1080p and 1440p monitors are a thing. Less pixels are easier to push. That said try turning down you resolution. For instance I have a 4k tv but can only run it and games at 1080p.
