GPU poll

[GreiverBlade]

DLSS vs FSR and DLSS wins. For games that support it, I would recommend a 3060Ti considering they are all the same price.

Nvidia has better drivers too.

that's a bit subjective, personally, i find FSR more precise than DLSS (not that they would be needed at 1080p or even up to 1620p) and driver wise, i had more issues with Nvidia than ATI/AMD since around 23 years.

a 6700 XT 12gb at 340$ is a better deal than a 3060Ti 8gb at 330$, (unless it's a 12gb variant )
if it was a 3070 8gb for 350 that would be another story (tho if planning to upgrade to 1440p+ later, my recommendation would stay the same)

6700 XT. It has more VRAM than the 3060 Ti, and better drivers than the A770.

I think you can find A used RTX 2080 TI for that price, you only really lose out on Rebar & maybe D.L.S.S, slightly more power usage. The Raytracing is still better on the 2080 ti vs all of these cards & it has 11GBs of Vram.

Please...Just no...

A mined 2080TI for 2 months,or an old card 1080ti used for constant gaming?

Cheers to all, These day i have a few offers of video card to buy. One is Asus Dual Fan Rtx 2080Ti,the other one is KFA2 2080TI and last one is Msi gtx 1080Ti Gaming X.Each 2080Ti cards is in price range of ~300$.Gtx 1080Ti i found in range price of 200$. I discuss with sellers and told me...

Just do it right, save headaches and buy a new GPU with proper warranty.

Go troll yourself with your bad advice.

6700XT in my opinion. More VRAM, similar performance. I really like Nvidia Broadcast/RTX Voice but if you aren't into that, the 6700XT wins.

Bad advice is believing anything gamers claim, with zero evidence.

My own anecdotal experience was bad. Why do you care so much, do you have some graphics cards to unload from your mine?

nice try
I don't mine
you can look on my system specs & see what I've been doing with my rig.

@DemonicRyzen666 a used 2080 Ti isn't even one of the choices in the OP's Poll.

Anyway, it's a bad choice imo due to what it's most likely been used for in the past.

My whole point is you wanna play games without needing to touch graphics settings. You just want them to be maxxed out. If you can't get 60 FPS at such settings it means your video card sucks at this game at this resolution. And it's already a bunch of games where 6700 XT and 3060 Ti can't get these 60 FPS at max settings at 1440p and they need something to help them (such as lower textures, FSR, DLSS, lower AA level, etc).

At 1080p, though, this is not the case. These cards don't notice difficulties in every game. And since the guy wants to buy a video cards which will last him longer than for a couple months we must consider growing sys reqs which makes 1440p even less of a deal for these no-more-optimal GPUs. They don't have much room left.

And of course if we are speaking BROADLY that these cards are capable of running games at reasonable settings at 1440p it's definitely the case. They really can. FSR and DLSS don't ruin the IQ too much. Lowering tesselation (I might've mixed it up with some other term) and some reflections settings won't really impact your experience whilst getting you a pretty considerable speed boost.

You don't want them "maxed out". The games can use A.I. to define what the optimal settings are.

Maxed out means with RT active. Can any of these cards run RT active even at 1080p?
The answer is a Nooo, so you are a wrong.

means with RT active

It's a decade too early for taking RT seriously. I meant everything maxxed out but RT Off.
