If only there were some good games to play with a shiny new graphics card. Got the 10 series so I could play R6 Siege and PUBG, the 20 to play Tarkov, 30 I've mostl replayed old games, Valheim, C2077, Elden Ring, I can't think of any reason I'd need or want a 40 series.
FTFYI’ll likely get a few and see what AMD does. I’d like to go all AMD this gen since I plan to do a lot of streaming next year. If all else fails I’ll flip them on eBay because some countries will need them for heat.
Get HWinfo, MSI afterburner, and Rivatuner, you can get onscreen data for CPU/GPU usage while gaming.My monitor is 5120x1440 @240Hz with a 3080ti. I'm usually pulling about 120FPS in any action games. I'd love to go close to 240 FPS. Though I am wondering if my 5800x is holding me back.
But seriously that's a luxury, and you're correct. I really don't need the damn card. Just want. Pockets bigger than brain, and all that.
Man I've had my 6800xt a while and haven't had a single issue driver side in any game. I know that's just my experience, but have no trouble throwing my money towards AMD again next round. Anxious to see how they fair with ray tracing this series, and price as I have no doubt they'll be much more energy efficient. Would love Nvidia to fall flat on their faces this launch.My kid bought himself a 6800xt and seems pretty happy with it. He did have some driver issues at first but I think that was a ID10T error on his part when he switched from Nvidia to AMD he probabaly didnt clean his shit properly. I told him to do so and its been running great ever since on all his games he plays.
Feeling really good about my $550 3080 10GB right now.
These prices are retarded and I'll have gamed for 9 months by the time the 4060 is released that comes close to the price/performance.
Oh, and no games will exist that make it necessary to upgrade at 1440p.
Get fucked Nvidia.
my guess is that DLSS 3.0 can do 120 fps on 60 fps locked games because it's interpolating those extra framesYeah I can't either. I would have loved to play Elden Ring, but I can't get past the 60FPS lock and no widescreen support.
Printing a shitload of money + shutting down production + mining + greed.I mean how is it that within 1-2 generations we went from $500-$600 top end card to $2K, shits fucking crazy.
That's what's happening right now. I would get a 6900xt, though, because they are the same price and better performance.I was hoping for the 4080 to be affordable because I moved to a 4K 120hz TV and the 3060 just can’t do 4K for shit. Guess I’ll just get a 3080 when they do clearance sales.
