Will rtx 2070 stay good into 2024-2026 at 1440p

Ngl the 2070 is struggling in new games like starfield at 1440p (I’m not hitting my 144hz refresh rate)

If the 40 super cards are bad I might wait all the way till 2026 to upgrade my gpu.

Would this be feasible?

2070 is just a 1080p GPU, nothing more.

RTX 3080 can barely hang on well in some games at 1440p with all the visuals cranked up.

Almost 2025 necro here.

My oldest machine is currently rocking a 9900k + 2070. It has a custom loop of a 360+240mm rad and some decent OCs on both GPU and CPU.

This is a machine I let my little kids use for some of those less demanding games. It is hooked up to an older 1440p monitor and despite being so old... it still maintains 60 fps in pretty much everything they throw at it. Now, you might need dlss on for some of that and you aren't going to be pushing ULTRA everything, but here we are in almost 2025 and that 2070 is still going strong.

The bigger issue is lack of VRAM for 1440p+ especially if wanting to move to say 1440p 21:9

It might still do OK in most games if you tweak the visual settings, but don't expect to crank those up @ 1440p+ on a 2070 or 3060. The RTX 20 series especially since those are power hogs for what they are, and they can't even use DLSS 2.x which puts those in the same boat as say GTX 1080 Ti where to bump the FPS you might have to rely on FSR.
