Thinking of this ASRock RVII for muh hackintosh purposes while I still have a chance, before Applel moves to ARM and completely fucks over people trying to use their software and not get jewed.

It's like a 2080 so I hope it lasts at least 5 years. Waiting for Black Friday or some shit like that to buy all my parts.

What card should i buy bros?

RTX 2080 Strix and Ryzen 3700x.

Everything running at 1440p/144hz, gaming at its finest tbhwyf.

shilling phoneposters will never understand

R9 280. I was hoping to upgrade but for some reason cards are more expensive than they were the last 3 times I got a 200 dollar GPU.

Go be stupid somewhere else

Is buying used cards a good idea? Was thinking of picking up a used 980ti they're pretty cheap here.

this card is really bad

Buying parts for a new pc tomorrow or the day after. Should i go 3600 2080 super or 3700x and 2070 super. Want to play older games at 4k60.

2080
Good enough for my monitor which is pretty fucking demanding.

new Consoles are gonna be as powerful as this in 2 years and devs are gonna need 2 more to fully master those graphics so you'll want to upgrade in 4

>you do realize that this is a card for content creators just with the "gaming" as a gimmick?
Which I don't mind because I'll be primarily editing video and playing games on the side. As long as it performs better on games at 1440 than a RX 590 (which was my first option) everything will be okay. I'm coming from console anyways so anything at all is an upgrade at this point.

Lads is it worth to upgrade my 1060 6gb to a 2060 super? Been planing to do it but im still unsure

I've noticed newer games can get shit framerates but I'm still playing many old and new games that are fine, so I have yet to do a change. Newer games with good optimization will run well

Which of these should I get for my new computer for 1440p and 144hz?
>3600 or 9700k
>5700xt or 2070s
I already budgeted out for the 9700k and 2070s but I heard the AMD options were just as good for my goals at a lower price.

Probably using i5 3470 and HD7950/R9 280 for last few weeks, they had a good run.
Upgrading to 3600 and probably 5700 XT, if non reference cards are reasonably priced in my shithole. I just want more quiet and cooler 5700 XT.

CPU upgrade will future proof your system a lot with like a 3600 or 3700x and your minimum fps would be better in CPU intensive games but it's also fine as it is. i'm using an old as fuck i7 with a 1070 and it manages just fine in the latest games with some at 120+ fps.

Sapphire RX580 8GB. It works as well as I expected it to, for a budget card.

budget bois Ryzen 5 + R580
the 1660 is better for sure and i nearly got it, but not quite enough to justify the extra £50-100 when i was shaving off as much money as possible. because poor and NEET.

pushing more into 1440p is all well and good, but those monitors are like another £300 so, its not really feasible on a budget. you can get a 144hz 1080 monitor for £130 now.

ayyy lmaooo

They're going to be pretty capable, but I dont know if they'd be much different than the X1X minus having a better CPU. I still remember how Sony tried to parade the PS4 as some sort of "Supercharged PC" at launch and claimed it could handle Watch Dogs at 1080p 60fps.

Nothing, integrated right now. Just playing older games pre 2000. Wanted to build a 2080ti system but the RTX series is the worst gen shitvidia launched since the FX series back in 2003. Waiting to see what they shit out next year.

Consoles are probably going to be closer to an underclocked 1070 than a 2070. I can't wait for the official reveals tho.

16gb, 2666mhz I checked latency, not great not terrible.
It's actually enough for 60fps.
I tried many variants. For Witcher running it in windowed borderless made a huge difference for whatever reason. MHW and JC3 just keep doing slight stutters every now and then, annoys the shit out of me.

Turn hairworks off on witcher and it should be easy.

the reviews on newegg says there's coil whine. Is there any on yours?

I'm using a 970 but mine is fine. You're thermal throttling? I don't see why it should have overheating issues unless the fans are broken/disconnected or you for some reason need to reapply thermal paste to it.

Are you bothered by heat?

Got myself a 2080ti (to replace my dead HD7950), that I probably never will use to it's full potential, despite the 144Hz display.
Will soon get a ryzen 3700x to replace the old 4th gen i5

Attached: rean pacha.png (500x500, 142K)

Thats odd, you should be more than fine. JC3's PC port is kind of lackluster so it's probably that, and I'm not sure if they fixed up MHW's unoptimized launch. Any other games where you're having this issue? Are you playing with uncapped framerates higher than your monitor's refresh rate?

My cpu is showing its age though.
Going to do a new build from the ground up when the next gen GPUs come out

I've got a Gsync 2K 140hz monitor. It pushes the 1080ti. I have to remember to turn on vsync if I don't want the card running full blast. It can handle it but I can't stand having a card running that hot. I'm from the 50C is a chip running Hot Days.

I got a GTX780 on my 4770K. What a great pairing. That computer was able to handle Low end VR with ease.

Currently still using a 4790k. Would I run into any bottlenecks with a 1080ti or 2080 at (for the moment) 1080p and later 1440p?

I grabbed this off Ebay for $125.
I bought it for an SFF computer I had until recently, since it was the strongest card my PSU could handle at the time that also played nice with Linux. Then my motherboard got fried during some maintenance, and I decided to bite the bullet and build a PC from the spare parts I had and a CPU I had bought months prior.

Runs clean and pretty, though I haven't been taxing it anyway with my collection of old games and indies.

No issues with my 970, but I do use EVGA precision while playing vr or certain high demand games.
And certain games require a lower voltage for some reason...like grim dawn or killing floor 2. If I don't Ill get a black screen while everythings running still.
Fucking annoying, but it was all fixed with the card monitor thing and slight adjustments to fanspeed thresholds and voltage through it.

For PC stuff we are already approaching the limit where content quality is limited more by your art budget more than by the machine.

It's complicated. I have an old i5 2500 + gtx950 machine with Windows 7 that I still use as my primary pc, but a week ago I bought a ryzen5 1600 + rx580 machine because it was so stupidly cheap that I would've been retarded not to buy it. I have Ubuntu on it and I've basically only been using it for rendering Blender projects. I'm not using it as my main machine because my Windows 7 machine has everything just how I like it.

tl:dr, still using my gtx950 as my main video game video card.

Speaking of building a new PC, would you guys say 32GB ram is overkill for gaming? Ram isn't too expensive right now so I'm wondering if that would be a good investment for the next few years or if it's too early to bother with more than 16.

it would be a waste because by the time you will actually need more than 16 DDR5 will be the standard

stick with 16GB and focus on your other parts, GPU and CPU

Replaced the fans about a fortnight ago; otherwise has served me well.

should have bought the 3070 when it came out next year then, instead of this gimmick experimental rtx shit gen

I upgraded to a 9900k from a 6700k, and if you're talking just about gaming then the only thing I would upgrade is your RAM. I can tell you for a FACT there is no gaming performance difference between a 9900k and a a 6700k, at least not with a 2080ti anyway, which is my card. The only game I ever saw hit cpu bottleneck on 6700k with MSI afterburner on was Rise of the tomb raider, and it happened on just one map with the camera pointing a very specific way, in other words you had to force it.

The 7700k is better than the 6700k. So you don't need a new gaming cpu any time soon. If you're after a faster cpu for apps and multitasking, then yes, hands down this thing will run rings around the 7700k, but if you're just gaming you're fine, and I'm qualified to answer that.

Save your money.

3600 is plenty enough, go with it and 2080. A more balanced system. 3700x does nothing to performance in gaming compared to 3600. you need as much GPU beefiness for 4k meme gayming. Imho I would go 1440p/144hz if I were you. 4k monitors, unless huge (over 35 inches), provide no better image quality than a 1440p at 27 inch for example. Also, 144hz smoothness

What are the chances that the new Nvidia Super cards will get price drops around Black Friday? I'm hoping to get something soon, should I wait for that?

If the most graphically intensive game I play is Witcher 3 Wild Guy at max settings, will a 1660ti be good enough?

A GTX 1050ti. Definitely upgrading to a 2070 Super when I get a chance to switch over to Ryzen CPUs.

I'm using an RX 580 8GB that I got for $50 back when it was around $300 due to Etherium mining. The GPU was dead due to it being used for mining but based XFX let me RMA it and sent over a brand new one.

Clip Studio Paint uses the GPU?
I was under the impression that most drawing software aside from heavy stuff like Photoshop and Krita only lightly used the GPU. I've been working with lighter weight software so my stuff runs on almost anything I put it on.

Clip Studio has 3D models you can rotate/pose to use as reference for whatever it is you are drawing.

>AMD is till rather universally reviled
that was always with their high end gpus and even now AMD is giving nvidia a run for their money and soon intel will be too

You guys say 32 GB of RAM is overkill, but by the time the next consoles come around, there will be more RAM munching. FFXV hardly runs on 8 GB RAM, and it chews through nearly all of 16 GB.

I want to go with AMD cause I like what they have to offer, but I dont think Maya or Blender support anything but their professional cards.
And buy support, I mean tested.
I like what their cards can do, though. And they are cheaper than Nvidia.

It's $700, I also found a used RX 590 for $215 so about $900 and some change. Should I go for it? I compared the same build at the store where I was already gonna buy all my parts (because it already has third world tax added) and it comes at about $1120 new (for some reason the Z370-i is about $200 new?) I know I could get much cheaper stuff but the guy said he could install MacOS on it before shipping it and I was going to build a hackintosh anyways so the less compatibility issues I have due to my autism of ordering different parts, the better.

The plan down the line is to maybe get a better cooler, upgrade to an i7 9700K (or even an i9 if I can afford it) and a Radeon VII in the next 8 months to a year if the i5 and 590 can't cut it for video editing and some vidya.

What should I do? Please validate my autism.

I keep wondering how long it will take people to realize AMD has drivers now, they're just Linux exclusive. Even for newer games DXVK on RadV (Linux exclusive Vulkan driver) is often within a few frames, if not faster than the Windows driver's D3D support, and for native Vulkan and OpenGL stuff like emulators its so much faster its not even a contest.

Only downside is that because the drivers are open and worked on by third parties like Valve they lag behind new hardware releases slightly. My Vega 56 works great, and older Polaris based hardware like the 480 / 590 are really well supported, but the newest 5700 cards are waiting for new releases of the Linux kernel and Mesa (crown project for RadV, RadeonSI, etc) to work easily out of the box.

Try to avoid any prebuilt/case with glass front panels. Or hit up and look into building your own, which is always a fun time.

Having under 500gb SSD is fucking sad. 1tb should be just fine. Some games are 100+ gigs these days. Nu-Hitman is massive, Eternal and 2077 are most likely going to be massive as well.

>Or hit up and look into building your own
I was going to, but my budget was cut due to some IRL shit so I found this thing online. I just wanna know if it's a good price for what it comes with, couldn't care less about colors or the case, and if it really gets that hot I'll just buy a cheap $50 case that doesn't.
Also as I explained earlier, this is already compatible with MacOS according to the guy so that's why I'm interested.

>Having under 500gb SSD is fucking sad

1080p med-high, I mostly play older vidya tho since there hasn't really been any recent triple A games that have interested me.

My vega bro

I have a 1660ti and regret not getting a 2060 for RTX, it could be too slow for RTX anyways so who knows

I just use a 1660 Ti to play on my 50 inch TV

I had a 2070 and a 2k/120 FPS but the difference I was noticing didn't really feel worth the $700-$800 I spent on them, so I just returned everything.

I'm happy with my comfy 1080p setup with my recliner and my TV

With GPUs the answer is always to get the best you can afford.

I don't have any stutter in MHW nor JC4 with a 1660ti and my cpu is a 4670k you have a problem somewhere either HD or ram

EVGA 1060 6gig. I should get something stronger because I can't max 1080p everything.

Not him but what's the curve for diminishing returns like?
I can afford a 2070 super but a bunch of people in this thread and /g/ say to just go with the cheaper 5700 xt.

That's about it, the 5700xt is peak on price/performance, the super while a bit better it is badly priced(although, not by much). It's still not a bad card, it's just when the diminishing returns starts.

what about cpu?

The value of the RX 5700XT is better in Cost Per Frame VS 2070 Super) - 4.00 USD at 1440p against 4,65 and 7.45 vs 8.18 at 4K

You forget about it until some shitty CPU-heavy poorly-optimized game comes out.

evga 2080

Is the 2060 worth it or should I try to find a used 1080 for cheaper?

based

I bought an Inno3D RTX 2070 super about a month ago. when I tried to waterblock it with an RTX 2080 waterblock from EK it wouldn't go on properly, the PCB where the memory chips are wouldn't contact against the heatsink and it looked like the PCB was bending in that area, the screws wouldn't go in / come out properly
so I thought id try to inject thermal paste into the gaping chasm, it didn't work very well, so I tried taking off the connector block of the waterblock, then I decided to just use the backplate to apply pressure to the PCB, pressing it towards the heatsink by jamming thermal pads in between. When I tried putting the connector block back on I must have overtigtened the screws because I heard a crack, when I connected it up it leaked out of that area. GG. So im back to using 780ti .

>9400
there's your problem, intel CPUs stutter like a mother fucker
>t. owned a 4690K and had stutter in a shit load of games

You're likely to get one with a shitty psu, mobo and most likely a gpu with shitty cooling. just learn to build one.

last time i built one it never functioned properly and it was a huge hassle. what about those sites where you can choose parts and have it put together? idk what parts to choose

Is it worth upgrading the 1080 right now, or should I wait another 3 or 4 years?

Wait for whatever the next generation is and get a $500 GPU

No way. You can wait around till some huge leap emerges, maybe nvidia's new 7nm architecture next year might be good.

Blowers are trash by design outside of really niche uses like tiny cases with no airflow.
That said, the 5700 and XT got blasted on all benchmarks for having really bad cooling. Any good talk of it was AMD pretending it's not a problem.

Im looking to upgrade. Is AMD still shit compared to nvidia+intel combo? I remember back in 2011 AMD was a dumpster fire

AMD cpus have gotten a lot better. But AMD GPU's are still inferior to Nvidia, but it's not quite as awful for them as it was in 2011.

How's that ray tracing working out for you AMDboi

amd better cpu's, amd loses to high end gpu's, mid-high tier amd wins in price to performance, drivers still dodgy on releases and takes a while to get their shit together

I might drop it to a B450 if they came out with the MAX version of the tomahawk in the US already, I don't really wanna fuck around with Bios flashing. But the other stuff is decent advice to look into, thanks. I'm mostly looking to just game on this, maybe do light streaming but nothing major.

so worst performance?

Pirate windows 10 ultimate or whatever the highest tier edition is because the basic shit doesn't even have proper admin controls.

Then spend about 30 minutes or a day if you don't know what you're doing gutting the system. Disable all automatic updates, Cortana, all data sharing with Microsoft, user account control, antivirus, automatic disk maintenance. You're a big boy and you decide when to update (never), when to virus scan (also never), and when to defrag (sometimes). Add classic shell.

Now you have a real OS that doesn't do stupid shit without your permission. You will likely halfway break your OS in that 'apps' no longer work (they're all shit and garbage anyway, you're better off without them), and god help you if you ever try to open the windows store somehow, because it'll try to undo everything you did.

That's what they said about the PS4 Pro and Xbone X but my PC that I built in 2014 still shits on them both.

check fan performance. replace thermal paste. improve case airflow. undervolt. up to you is you want to spend 30-60 bucks on an arctic cooler for it, you might want a new card at that point.

no, better performance with AMD finewine, unlike nvidia who progressively gimp their cards.

I have a 1660Ti but am really interested to see how good the new consoles ate. Now that AMD has their act together on CPUs, we might get some powerful and balanced machines from Sony and Microsoft. Probably at least 8GB for VRAM, mild ray-tracing, and around RX 5700 power.

even better in some cases due to how nvidia handles colour so you get less banding than using an amd card on the same adaptive sync monitor

No but yes for the other requirements.

In my opinion, yes.
I've tried big huge resolution shit and honestly, it's not that great. It might be because my ass is blind but I genuinely see very literal difference going all the way from 1080p to 4k. When you're there hugging your face to the screen hunting pixels in a store you see it, but when you're playing and things are in motion I just don't see much difference. And actual larger monitors have all kinds of issues with many games.

speaking of old card
is 750Ti still applicable for todays games?

Yes. Refresh is more noticeable than resolution, to the point I'm fine with 800x600 if it means 160hz.

my 580gtx died like 2 years ago and I've been using a 1050Ti. I'm legit surprised at how many modern games I can max out at 1080p

I am still stuck with a 970.

i am still using a gtx 860m which is pretty close so yeah, everything will play at console level or better except for assassin's creed odyssey, that shit drops below 20 sometimes

I got a 980ti for free from my uncle who was phasing out an older build, it is a bit overkill but it's never failed me yet

hell yeah. having a 144hz monitor doesn't mean you need to always try to achieve 144 fps. pretty much every single 144hz monitor on sale today aside from shitty old ones like that vg248qe which sell because of retards has adaptive sync which means it doesn't matter if you're at 1 fps or 144 fps you still get that smooth, tear free experience. it means you can ramp the settings up, turn of vsync and play with a fluctuating framerate and you won't even no its fluctuating because its so smooth. i'm playing control right now and this game has shit optimisation and i can barely hit 70 fps at medium but it still feels responsive as fuck because of the adaptive sync on my 144hz monitor.

My 1060 keeps stuttering, do you think it's worth "upgrading" to a 590 now that they're cheap and available?
I can easily sell my card for at least $100 and a new 590 is only $180

>My 1060 keeps stuttering
sound more like a ram or cpu problem. gpu shouldn't stutter like that.

it could be your cpu, what games are stuttering?

I've RMA'd the CPU, so unless I'm extremely unlucky that's not it. Every game stutters. Whenever a game streams in new stuff, even in lightweight games, it jutters, and once every hour or so, even if I'm not playing a game, the computer will lock up and stutter for about 5 seconds
I've been thinking about that too but I don't want to spend a lot of money right now

Just got a 2070 today for $295. Pretty slick so far.

that sounds like a ram issue. you're running out of system ram and you might have a ram leak. a gpu shouldn't cause your pc to lock up like that it's definitely something else within your system

I've done memtest it should be fine, and I'm not maxing out the ram. Like I said, I don't need to be running a game at all, ANYTHING causes it to stutter. I've googled it and apparently Nvidia's drivers can cause it

Bought the 2060 on launch day because I needed an upgrade from my old 750. Also upgraded from FX to Ryzen at the same time. It's a pretty nice card, handles everything I throw at it with no issue so I'm happy with it. I probably would've gone with the 5700XT if it came out a little earlier but the 2060 should be fine for me for years.

did you find that ram in the trashcan? those timings are fucking horrible

>8gb

yes you are running out of ram. all modern AAA games use more than 8gb. when you start running out of ram windows automatically moves background apps to the page file i.e. a small partition on your hard drive and it causes streaming bottlenecks and makes games freeze.

wtf do you mean XMP isn't supported. how garbage is your PC?

This DESU. The next big leap in graphics will be when we have FULLY ray traced games, which contrary to popular belief, we don't yet other than the Quake 2 remaster. Most games that claim they use RTX only use it for puddle reflections or some small potatoes shit like that. A fully path traced AAA game will be a major jump in graphical quality, but until then we're stuck with the same convoluted graphics pipeline that means only big budget games can afford anything approaching realistic lighting.

The bios have a big buton for xmp that says it isn't supported. I've tried before

Any poorfags in here? I want a Ryzen 3600, but I don't have money for a decent motherboard like the b450 tomahawk. Will it explode with a shittier one?

Do you think the rtx 2070 super prices will drop in one month? Now the cheapest still go for 600 € and the most low tier ones for 550-ish € with a discount.

no, any b450 will run fine with that chip but you need to update the bios so make sure the board has a sticker that says ryzen 3000 ready or that the store does the bios update for you

Is the 3600 really the best cpu you can get for gaming right now, or is it just a good value?

your problem is clearly a ram issue. you don't have enough ram and your timings are absolutely fucking horrible and it's no wonder your PC is shitting itself. update your bios from the motherboard manufacturers website. if it's a ryzen platform they have had loads of issues with bios so it's essential to update to the latest revision. all it takes is a USB.

>Do you think the rtx 2070 super prices will drop in one month?
no, if anything they'll stay the same for a while

best would be the i9 9900k wouldn't it be?

3600 is best value, ryzen is really close but 9900k is the best performance for gaming

the store does make the update for me, I just worry about temperatures and stuff.

Just ordered a 1070ti, I was strongly considering RTX cards but comments from just weeks ago and a few guys I talked to who'd had them said they were still suffering severe issues. Decided to hold off on them. Since they're generally cheaper for their performance I can always get one another time, but I figured I'd play safe for now and not risk getting a bricked card.

It's a good card, just overpriced. If you HAVE to get it, you wont really be disappointed, but if you don't have to, get the 5700xt instead.

I5-9400f or ryzen 5 2600?
Planning on building my first real pc.
I also plan on high end emulation like yuzu.
Pairing it up with a gtx 1660ti btw

1660ti and i5 9400f

Brah how's it? Been meaning on getting this build sometime this year as well since it kinda fit with my budget. Is it okay for 1080p gaming?

I have a GTX 1070 Ti but I'm curious about raytracing, can I run an RTX card along with it or would that cause issues?

if you have a card as powerful as a 1070 ti already it's pointless to get current gen RTX cards as their ray tracing capabilities are almost beta test tier. you can use RTX on your 1070 ti but it'll run like garbage but you can still turn it on to see how it looks. wait for the next gen nvidia 7nm cards if you want playable RTX because those cards will not only be faster but also much cheaper and will have more RTX cores.

You're a fool to consider paying the rtx tax though. A grand total of 5 (literally five I'm not memeing) games have raytracing features and none of them do anything noticable.

Rtx 2080

the die sizes are fucking huge and big die sizes are super expensive because of low yields. these RTX cards are still on what is essentially 16nm which debuted with the 10 series nearly 4 years ago now. amd is on the latest 7nm which is supposedly cheaper right now because yields are supposed to be good and their chip is small anyway so cost is lowered and it's why they can afford to price their cards so competitively.

what's concerning is the 7nm process is supposed to bring 25%+ efficiency and power consumption gains over 16/14nm yet amd is still barely matching nvidias 16nm turing cards which also have power hungry RTX cores. i believe nvidia will completely decimate AMD with their own 7nm cards unless AMD has something hidden to be released next year (which is doubtful).

I'm buying this and the RTX 2080ti i don't give a fuck anymore.

2080 is my sweet spot.It runs 1440p smoothly and the DLSS can help make 4K a smooth experience. You've got 1080p solid performance if you want ray tracing as well. It's well rounded and DLSS is a huge plus very games that support it.

I don't see a huge need to upgrade because I'm expecting graphical fidelity to stay as they on consoles because of their struggles to deal with running 4K games smoothly/

Gonna get me an rtx 2080 , we'll reach the peak of gaming in 2020 , doubt I'll need to upgrade my shit after 2020 .

i got a 1070 because i dont play the trash you fags play
even that is overkill

It's good enough for that. Actually it's good enough for 1440p on many modern titles, even.

Bad choice. Only games you will be playing at 144 fps are esport shooter.
You can achieve that with a much cheaper GPU.
If you want 144 fps in actual games, well, wait for next gen GPUs.

Who hurt you?

And 16gbb of ddr5 will also be more expensive then 32gb of ddr4.
Surprise!

Huh, I got my 2080TI along with a HD monitor, didn't feel the need to go any higher, monitors are bigger than I need them and from what I understand we're not yet at the point where 4k can be run at 120+ fps, I cap fps regardless to give my PC an easier time, since I wanna take care of it, perfectly fine with running everything at 1080p 60fps Ultra settings, for the next 4-5 years hopefully.

Let's face the facts here. 32gb was overkill then and it's overkill now. A person who got 16gb then is someone who knew how to future proof, because they're sitting pretty now and still will be for a while yet. By the time 32gb has even approached "standard amount", the games that need it will be wanting it at ddr5 speeds.

Hmm very suspicious, why did nvidia engineers JUST found some way to improve their cards performances? No upgrade required, just some driver tweaks? How very convinient to be able to enable more power just in time as AMD is on the rise with their newest hardware.
Is Nvidia artifically holding back their cards with software restrictions or what?

Get win10 LTSC, it's windows 10 but actually usable, i.e you can fully disable telemetry and it doesn't come with the windows store or the shitty UWP calculator, image viewer, edge, candy crush and the like. It also only gets security updates, so you won't be beta testing half-baked features and updates won't mess your shit up.

32GB is definitely worth it if you use your PC for work

How is it suspicious exactly? It makes sense for drivers to get better over time and make more efficient use of the hardware. Just look at how well a lot of amd cards have aged now that their drivers are actually half decent. People call it FineWine, i don't see why nvidia couldn't improve their performance over time if amd can.

Ignore that user. Everything is ok apart from the low end CPU. A cheap mid range Ryzen like a 2600X or 2700 will be a good upgrade

Same here. Still a solid card. Just need to upgrade to Ryzen.

What recommendation do you have that's better value than a 1660ti while still providing acceptable stopgap performance.

didn't i said i enjoy the fps ? i know its overkill, but 144 fps/hz is a pleasure

It's still your best option in the midrange. Raytracing never looks good enough to justify the extra price.

Not much new really, 1660ti is the best option in its price range, but if you're willing to spend a bit more, something like a 5700 will give better performance and more memory than you'll get with the similarly priced 2060.

I'll try it. Thanks user!

You're a tard for being an nvidia shill. Buy what's best atm you faggot. AMD is just blowing nvidia and intel out of the park now. It is what it is, its been a decade since I bought shit from them. RTX is a meme unless you have the 2080super/ti. If you wanna pay double or triple for a card to play with RTX ON at 720p, be my guest lmao.

Currently running i5-2500K & 970, but my Ryzen 5 3600 + 16gb 3400 CL16 arrived in the mail a couple days ago and my mobo should arrive on Friday according to Amazon. God I'm so ready to play literally anything that came out post 2014 without constantly being at 100% CPU usage.

Are 1070s still worth it at ~$200? I've been keeping an eye on used examples around me and most are in that area. One was $180 and negotiable, I almost jumped on it but I would've had to postpone the 3600 and the 2500K needs to be replaced way worse than the 970 does. I've also seen RX 580s as low as $100, I could grab one of those almost immediately but I feel like if 1070s are still going strong it's better to save up an extra few weeks for one.

AYYMD HOUSEFIRES isn't blowing anyone out of the park

Nvidia is faster and support forward thinking features like real time ray tracing, variable rate shading

Poovi doesn't support ANY of those features

I’m still tossing up between an RX580 and GTX1660Ti, I like the lower wattage required for team green but AMD is way more affordable. I’m not overly interested in most AAA titles aside from something like CP2077 or the forza/dirt games and the only newish stuff I play are RTS/4x games where a high end GPU isn’t as important.

Any tips?

>AMD is just blowing nvidia and intel out of the park now

seriously, how someone with a little bit of common sense can say that. i know AMD is a cult like scientology, but not on Yea Forums

Yeah, you can't go wrong with a 1070 for 200. It has similar performance to a 1660ti and has more memory. It's a great card if you want to play at 1440p, or even 4k in older games but if you only aim for 1080p, it's overkill and a 580 would make more sense

I use all of it on a daily basis for work so you're wrong, kid.

>GTX1660Ti
go for it, 580 is a dead card.

>for work
what the fuck are you doing here?

>he works on his home computer

What's your hourly rate? Or are you doing it for free?

You can get 144fps with it on a 1440p monitor too.....

They're not supporting ray tracing, they have their own RTX shitto. Real ray tracing will come next gen or the one after, with SOFTWARE ray tracing instead of this performance gimp shit. Get a grip jewboy

Out of all these features, variable rate shading is the only good one, as it actually improves performance with a negligible hit to image quality.

>RX580 is dead
Even for only 1080p?

my screen is relatively new ( 2-3 years) , maybe i'll upgrade for 1440 32" in a near future.

One thing I forgot to mention, I'm running 3 displays and I feel like it definitely has a performance impact with my 970. I originally bought this 970 used to replace my R9 290 that was frequently artifacting and noticed a performance decrease, and I can only guess that might be the combination of the 3 displays and the 970's infamous VRAM woes. Logically I don't see how the other 2 displays would affect performance considering I still only render games on the primary display (second monitor is just Discord, 3rd display is TV) but I guess even at idle they still use up some amount of memory.

My point being, I feel like I should opt for whichever handles multiple displays better between the 580 and 1070, and I assume that would be the latter.

its just a rehash technology

Get a vega 56 pulse, its 200 bucks and its better than both of those.

Its not a reference card, brainlet. There's always one nvidia shilling faggot in every thread. Cringe.

My 1070 handles my main 4k monitor with freesync and my secondary 1080p monitor just fine. I only used 2 1080p screens when i used an rx 480 before that, but didn't have issues either, so i guess both cards handle multiple display well.
Really performance should be your only concern when choosing between the two, just get whichever runs games at the resolution and framerate you want.

>one nvidia shilling faggot in every thread. Cringe
it is a card thread , what do you expect basedboy

4770k 760 master race

Fair enough. I had a 27 incher in 1080, its my secondary screen now. Its worth the money if you change your mind, especially with that card. You're probably gimping the fps of it at that resolution, creating a bottleneck in your CPU. I'm fairly certain that increasing the resolution to 1440p would barely decrease your fps if at all.

Is 1080p grainy and pixilated at 27 inches?

No, it looks fine. It's not especially sharp but that's about it.

There is literally nothing wrong with Zotac don't (You) me

Still the 2014 meme card itself, gtx 970 4gb (3.5gb)

Always ignore AYYMD HOUSEFIRES & AYYMDPOORFAGS, they're losing badly every day in performance, power efficiency and hardware features support

I'd consider my HD6950 the best GPU I've ever owned honestly. The R9 290 I replaced it with started suffering from artifacts just after it was out of the RMA period and by the time I replaced it I was pretty much guaranteed to artifact in any game I played. I replaced it with a 970 which cured the artifacting but performed worse than my 290 in pretty much everything I played.

That 6950 was a fucking champ, though. It was only the 1gb model but even in 2014 it was still handling everything I threw at it without breaking a sweat. I only replaced it with that 290 because I worked a contracting job with one hell of a big paycheck and true to my frivolous retarded NEET nature I decided to upgrade my GPU even though I really had no reason to.

Compared to my 27 inch 1440p screen next to it, very grainy @ about 30-40 inches away from my eyes. I didn't really notice it before as I was just used to it.

I have it and I was so pissed by the meme that I left it in its box and bought an AMD card. Still haven't sold it. It will always be my $500 lesson on not trusting nvidia.

Yea your CPU is definitely a huge bottleneck in your system, as the GPU heavily replies on the CPU to get the frames to render. Best way to move that bottleneck away from it is to increase resolution and turn on as much shit as you can, but still the 2080 is just so far away that nothing really helps to remove in entirely except upgrade :(

Not even worth the effort to sell it now. You could maybe get $80 if you were willing to hold out long enough and reject hagglers, but if you wanted a quick sale price you'd be getting $60 if you were lucky. At that point I'd keep it just to have a backup GPU in case the one you're currently using fails.

This faggot spends more time screetching about AMD instead of using his gimped jewvidia to play. Lmao.

It's not like GPUs are essential to running a computer, anyway. If my current one failed I could just pull it out. Not much I can do with a 970 besides playing old games. New games love their VRAM.

you're true, my 2080 is just a 60% load in heavy game in 1080 its a waste ive known that from the star. Sure.

> stop trying to force me upgrading

Ryzen CPUs don't have integrated graphics, so I basically have to keep a backup GPU just in case. That said, though, I'm and I still have my 290 as my backup. Once I replace my 970 I'll probably turn around and sell it for the aforementioned $60 quick sale price. I bought it 2 years ago for $120 so that'd still be a 50% return on investment, which is pretty fucking good for a 5 year old GPU.

Anyway, if it makes you feel any better, opting for the AMD replacement was the right call. Artifacting aside my 290 was superior to my 970 in every way and if I had been able to RMA it I probably wouldn't even want to replace it yet. I definitely want to replace the 970 though.
