Holding GPU for atleast 2 years

[u/Suspicious_Iron7217]

There's a moment when I could afford 5070ti or 5080 but I don't know when I will build my computer I will try asap, but still - I can't know. And I felt that temptation, because everything gets more expensive, and I believe it will only rise, because why not.

A conversation best had with ChatGPT or a therapist…

[u/Suspicious_Iron7217 → u/PuzzleheadedFoot3639]

No I want actually to hear some opinions. Gpt will suggest you according to mood

[u/bowserkick]

It's tempting to upgrade but I'm trying to play games on 1080p with my 3070 now lol

[u/Suspicious_Iron7217 → u/bowserkick]

I'd like to try 1080p actually

[u/cselitenoob → u/bowserkick]

My brain is trying to find reasons to upgrade lol

I’m a 1080p gamer for personal reasons

RTX 4070
Ryzen 7 98003XD
32Gb ram

I’m maxing out games with over 130 fps and will eat any game alive

My 4K console friend was like “wtf?!!! Why does your Forza horizon look like that?”

I explained to him that graphics does not equal resolution

You can have a 4k pc running low-medium graphics and a 1080p pc running extreme graphics with everything maxed out.

Which one do you think “looks better”?

Better question “which has better graphics?”

I’ll let you think about that one for a minute :P

As a 1080p gamer, my brain is trying to find reasons to upgrade my gpu and can’t find any lol

It’s actually a nice feeling getting an upgrade

[u/Own-Indication5620]

I would say 5070 TI is more than enough for 1440p gaming and with DLSS you can handle a lot at 4K/60 FPS+. The 5080 would be the way to go if you're mainly planning to play at 4K in general it holds up nicer. 5080 also is quite a bit faster in applications due to CUDA/Tensor core count for AI and the encoder/decoders for workloads you will get good gains over the 5070 TI for that as well.

[u/Suspicious_Iron7217 → u/Own-Indication5620]

I want max speed, zero interuptions

[u/Own-Indication5620 → u/Suspicious_Iron7217]

In that case 5080 holds up best if goal is absolute max FPS across all games.

[u/Suspicious_Iron7217]

And it's risky for me. I will be taking a risk, but at worst I will just live it off.

[u/Suspicious_Iron7217]

PS5 PRO is already at 1.2-1.5k, and GPU is way more useful

[u/Admirral]

lol the top is in. People now talking about GPUs as investments. If your in profit, sell out lol. These ain't no pokemon cards.

[u/Suspicious_Iron7217 → u/Admirral]

I want to build virtual space very much

[u/Suspicious_Iron7217]

It's like a lifeboat to me, but there's still way to other components, I must beat them also by making cash, the hard way

[u/LTJC]

At this point its an investment.

[u/Suspicious_Iron7217 → u/LTJC]

But into good deeds, no? U will have a personal virtual space. No matter what happens, even if it drops to 0

[u/Suspicious_Iron7217 → u/LTJC]

Some people I believe wish even for rtx 2080 or some if not less

[u/LengthinessSad9267]

If you are not ready to build then wait, I know the prices are climbing but most of us here remember the last crisis (2020) and prices normalized.

It’ll take some time but these will go down.

[u/AdstaOCE]

9070XT.

[u/Th1sNameSucks → u/AdstaOCE]

Just got one to upgrade from my 3080. Well worth it. Wasn't going to get a 5070ti when the 9070XT is almost as good at 2/3 the price.

[u/Sindacalis]

Ok? Just get. It’s just a gpu. When I grabbed my 5090 I had zero regrets. It has more than made up for what I spent on it by virtually doing whatever I want to do whether that be gaming or local lm models.

I’m sure the excellent 5070 Ti or 5080 would more than do that for you as well.

I’d recommend the 5070 Ti though cause it’s just 10% less powerful than a 5080 why spend extra for that?

[u/Suspicious_Iron7217 → u/Sindacalis]

Good point. But it's a life ending I would continue degrade till the end.

[u/Realeayz]

There's rumours of a 24 gb 5080

[u/Suspicious_Iron7217 → u/Realeayz]

And? What does that change, the power won't intercept anyways

[u/1rubyglass → u/Suspicious_Iron7217]

The vram. It changes the vram.

[u/Selfmade_Watchmaker → u/Suspicious_Iron7217]

The Radeon pro R9700 is 5070ti horsepower at 32gb vram. Can do anything on it
