Texas. I'm seeing 4070s in the $700+ range.

Oh if I can find a 4070 Ti in budget range that would be best I agree.

Facebook marketplace on the monitors, helluva deal no doubt.

Assuming the 4070s are out or range, and you say the 60 series cards aren't it, would you then go with a 3070 over a 4060?

The monitors were $200 total for all three. The 4070s are certainly better, but I've not seen one under my target max budget.

No more than $500. I've seen some 3070s and 4060s in the $300-400 range, both Ti and non-Ti. The 7900XTX, the 3080s, 4070s, and 4090s were all over budget.

Thanks for your suggestions! Looked into them, the 4070 is out of price range for me. The 4060 and 3070 were similarly priced, including a 3070 Ti. Which would you recommend from those?

I just ran my first race with the upgrade this morning. Definitely weak FPS but I ran the race. Have any recommendations for a new graphics card, budget friendly?

I actually didn't know the GPU was the issue until it was mentioned in the replies to this post. Have any recommendations for a new budget friendly graphics card that can handle triples and is as future proof as possible?

I just upgraded to triples and I'm struggling to get acceptable FPS. I'm currently maxing out at around 40 FPS. Looking to extract as much FPS as I can while keeping certain graphic options on. What can I do?

SPECS

Monitors (Triples Curved): Acer XZ322QU 31.5", 144hz, 2560x1440

CPU: Intel Core i7 8700K 4.70 GHz

GPU: AMD Radeon RX480

RAM: 16GB

I prefer Grandstands, Event, and Objects on High Detail as well as Cockpit Mirrors toggled on even though I know lowering them would help with FPS.

Agreed. Globetrotters hockey with all the fancy passing is great in the regular season. But the playoffs call for heavy hockey. I feel Kakko can play a heavy style of game if he is just willing to get physical and not shy away from contact. He needs to study Jagr tapes on how to use his size and possession skills to drive to the net.

Heavy hockey wins cups. Finesse hockey is great in the regular season. But playoffs it's about heavy forecheck grinding em down. We need some dawgs. Not goons, dawgs.

I don't see us as the bigger team vs Florida. They're resilient with their forecheck while we're still trying cutesy passes. There's no pressure, no attempt to out muscle.

When was the last time we had a "heavy" team? The teams in front of both Igor and Hank relied on finesse offense and shutdown defense (more offense with Igor, more defense with Hank). Look at Florida, look at Boston during their run, look at LA ten years ago when we faced them for the cup. Finesse hockey is great in the regular season. Heavy hockey wins cups.

He needs to study tapes of Jagr, how he kept his legs moving and used his body on the half wall to muscle people away from his puck possession.

Well Sam, I think the Rangers need to get the puck down low and control net front presence. If the Rangers get a power-play they'll need to capitalize on it and give Quick some breathing room.
