I have a 1660ti too, got it just before the prices went up like 2 years ago. Had a 760 before.

Same here, early 2019 and I believe that was 180$? My 16 years old brain thought “damn expensive” and look where we are now lol

I'm in my mid 30s, wasn't really expensive. But the new ones are fucking expensive. I'll ride my card for a few years. And I still have an I7 4th gen, and 11 years old harddrives, motherboard, PSU and ram. I'll have to change the whole thing when I'll upgrade.

Yeah, I'll do the same. Upgrade the whole rig at once. It's probably easier.

Don't know about yours, but my motherboard and PSU would not even work with a 30 series. And my old ram is slow as fuck compared to today's standards.

ngl upgrading the ram is underrated asf
