IMO it really depends on if you can upgrade your CPU as well. I have a 12 year old dell precision that maybe (probably not?) could handle a newer CPU (32gb of ram), but there is no way that I know of to upgrade the CPU to a current generation; thus, it is stuck with a CPU that’s too weak even for a 1070Ti.
Look here to find upgrades that will let you get the most out of that old motherboard. IDK if it will be much though. I upgraded the CPU on mine in hopes that ~8% gain in performance would do much… it didn’t.
Here’s a good resource as well. They focus on used systems it seems and helped me find the strongest (yet still shitty) CPU that I could get for my ancient motherboard.
