- What should we do ? With 5090 about to launch and new cpus and motherboards about release , what should we do? AMD / NVIDIA / INTEL
It depends on people situations. If you want a 7900xtx it would have been a great time to buy it for prime day. Me personally I’m waiting to see what happens with the next launch. I have a 7900xt and I’d only really upgrade if the 5080 makes sense. Looking at leaks though the 5080 at the proposed price of $1200 for 16 GB vram is a hard pass. If they launch the 5080 for 899 (i highly highly doubt they will) then I may pick it up. It also looks like Nvidia will come out with a 5080 super/TI so I may wait until those release to see if it’s worth it. Knowing Nvidia they will hike the prices and make it not worth upgrading. Just got to see what the real world performance is and make a decision then. I don’t usually upgrade my gpu every cycle but I do miss my Nvidia gpu because my favorite game isn’t optimized for AMD at all. Went from a GTX 970 to a 3080 to a 7900xt. Just got to wait and see what the prices are. 7900xt is still great so I’m not too upset if Nvidia jacks up prices as high as everyone thinks they will
@@goalieman206 good advice
I'd love to hear some opinons or experience on the idea of gaming in 1440p on a i5 9600k and perhaps a RTX 4070.
I mostly chase higher frames in my games so I wouldn't mind playing on high/very high instead of ultra. Keep in mind that I play quite a few new releases at constant 60 FPS (30 FPS in singe or coop games) atm and still enjoy them.
I've been thinking of upgrading my old GTX 1060 6gb since I am getting GPU bottlenecked in many games and I was thinking of buying a RTX 4060 ti 16 gb or something for 1080p but I am pretty certain I will get quite bottlenecked in many games on 1080p on my old CPU. Thats why I've been thinking of buying a new 1440p monitor and GPU to play on 1440p to alleviate some of the CPU bottlenecking that will occur.
Buying a new GPU and 1440p monitor would cost me less then upgrading my current CPU since I need to get a new motherboard and RAM as well and I have no use for the old parts, and I'd like to get as much juice as I can from this CPU before one day I upgrade it to be able to play on 1440p. There is still room for overclocking my old i5 9600k.
Also I am from Europe so computer part prices are quite different then the MSRP if people make comparison based on price of GPUs and I preffer Nvidia GPUs because of their features.
Cheers guys!
@@TheCROHELLBOY well some things to consider. For games like csgo not a problem. If you were compare it to say a 5600x a budget 6 core 12 thread cpu vs the 6 core 6 thread intel cpu , there would be a decent uplift. Pending on what gpu you select also has a big impact on where your bottleneck will be. For 1080p you would be fine. 1440p will have an impact on fps. Personally I would steer you to go for a platform upgrade. 12600k would yield a 20% uplift alone. Save up and maybe go for both, gpu and cpu. Also take the used market into consideration.
@@tonypolitowicz8290 Thank you for a quick reply!
A bit more info about my PC: it has 32gb of RAM and a lot of storage which I added to as years went on (2 M.2 SSDs, 2 sata SSDs and a 1 TB HDD). I never experiance much stutters besides on EfT which is quite unoptimised.
I basicaly use it for gaming since I built it and I mostly play not super demanding games and older titles, for example: BG3, Persona titles, fps games like CS, Helldivers and strategy or military games like total war or Warno).
Since I am in a smaller Europian country used market has redicilous prices for PC parts, so much so that sometimes there is only 2 ads for a PC part that are the same price as a newly released better part. So selling such old parts is a no go...
I've had this PC for 6 years and it still does the job that I need it to (plays games without stutters and at a console level fps 😅), but I was thinking of upgrading the GPU atm to something that I would use for the next 4+ years if I am lucky, and buying a CPU and motherboard next year.
Also since PC parts prices are quite different in my country on the new market what GPU would you reccomend (focusing only on performance) for 1440p right now and in the future or do you think I should stick to 1080p with my i5 9600k? Currently the 70s cards from Nvidia seem like a decent choice in my eyes. 😁
@@TheCROHELLBOY so many choices on gpu -
3060 12gb
7600xt
6750xt
Used 2080
3070 on the used market
7700xt
All depends on budget. Here in the states there are so many great cards used for a very reasonable price.
@@tonypolitowicz8290 I was mostly looking at the Rtx 40 series cards from retailers since the price is more reasonable.
And for price something around 600-700€ (around 750$) if it can be used for more then 3 years atleast. But like I said I am more concerned with future performance then price atm.
@@TheCROHELLBOY with that budget lots of choices. 4070ti would be pretty solid.
I recently bought a new setup minus a new PSU, and GPU. I went for X670E mobo, with a 7950x3d, 64gb ram, new 360mm AIO and a Meshify 2 case. Im still rocking my 1080ti. And ive been waiting for months now for info on 50 series, and im close to letting up and just getting a new PSU and a 4080 super to finish build, but im afraid ille regret it if a 5080 is the same pricepoint for more performance.
@@AdvancedHD with the 5080 I agree. We don’t know how big the uplift will be. That’s a tough decision. If you can hold out and see what the performance increase will be , it might be beneficial.
Just buy it if you need it, do extensive research, not everyone loves in States or western Europe. In my case the price has been stable high in the past year, so I jumped for ryzen 7500f to replace my old skylake 😁
A wise decision.
For smaller budgets, on intel side hands down now I5 12400f +ddr4 or AMD R5 5000 series offer great value and saving compared to "better" CPU like I7 or R7, will more than makeup if its spend on GPU.
50 series is about to drop but I'm looking at a prebuild with a 4070 ti super...honestly sucks but I've been on a 2060 for so long I think it's worth it
@@ItsOats the 4070ti will be a good jump in performance and you will have DLSS for more fps !
I'm using 12900k and 4090 in a custom loop. I actually may not change my cpu. If i do get a cheaper 14900ks. I won't have to change much and will get a nice boost in performance.
The music is overwhelming and makes it hard to focus on what you’re saying. Which is unfortunate as what you’re saying makes sense.
@@davidroberts9099 I appreciate the feedback and I will make adjustments on my next video. Seriously thank you for the feedback.! My next video will be dropping most likely this weekend. Look for the changes and thank you for watching!!!
Was looking at 4070ti then the 7900xtx became the same price. Then I thought is it really worth it now or should I wait, I'm also tempted to buy all the main parts - the gpu and get a budget gpu like a 7800xt. Sell that later and get one of the next gen cards. I assume the 7800x3d and a 650b will support the next gen cards.
@@Jodor-- I would probably wait unless you find a great deal.
Intel i7-6800K here with a 580 Rx 👀
@@i.c.t_workz if it still games for you enjoy it . There are definitely a lot of great options out there for you as an upgrade path !
@@tonypolitowicz8290 tbh I don’t game on it much it’s a test bench / show piece, I have an Xbox but looking at getting a 2nd pc when the new 5070 comes out !
@@i.c.t_workz that’s a solid plan. Thank you for sharing and wish you luck on your next build !!
$1500 for a rig is not a budget-friendly price
@@gelobongs well for a lot of hardcore enthusiasts 1500 dollars usd is a budget build.
I agree that’s a fair amount of money.
But the difference between a 750 dollar pc to a 1500 dollar pc is a huge performance difference and probably worth saving up a little more money to have the best possible performance experience without spending 3000 plus dollars.
I have huge investment in my 2 main builds. Now with the used market being present saturated, there are some really good deals out there. Me personally, I typically buy all new hardware and tend to be on the flagship parts. 1500 is enough to build a very powerful pc.
@@gelobongs also thank you for the feedback!
i have new 12700K + msi z790 edge ti max + new 7800x3d with X870 A gaming wifi. i don't know wich to keep, because i like the msi board better, looks cooler
@@nivea878 sounds like a second build in your future, keep them both !!
@@tonypolitowicz8290 both🤣 i mean if i return Intel i get 600💲 back if i return x3e i get 800💲 back i'm far from being rich wich one would you keep?
@@nivea878 I would say stick with the newer platform.
@@tonypolitowicz8290 ok buddy , what do you use? just curious
@@nivea878 14900k and the 4090
Is the 4070ti super good value? I want to build a PC to run mhwild begin next year on high fps without issues. I don't mind spending a bit, but also don't feel like I need a 50 series card.
@@TheNoodleSaurus it’s a good card but the value is so so. The 4070 super is a very good value card. My advice will still be to hold tight. We don’t know what the mid tier 50 series cards will bring to the table. Then again if you find a great deal on the 4070ti jump on it and thank you for watching!
@@tonypolitowicz8290 thank you for the insight. My main issue with the mid 50 series is that they might not release in time, as I want to play on release (feb 28, 2025) I’ll try holding while keeping my eyes open for deals, maybe on black friday.
@@TheNoodleSaurus you can’t go wrong buying a 4070ti and the resale value will be high if you wanted to upgrade later.
is it worth upgrading from 5600x to 5700x3d? im not planning on upgrading to am5 or am6 for quite a few years
@@v_cpt-phasma_v689 that’s a pretty good cost effective upgrade so I would say yes !
It's $180 on Amazon right now, I just got one. Upgrading from a 2700x, can't wait!
@@scoddiboi im very jealous of american pc part prices, you seem to just get everything cheaper, its at its lowest point ever here in the UK but that's still $220
@@scoddiboi that’s awesome- enjoy the new cpu and happy gaming !!
5700x3d is an insane chip for a great price. I went from a 5800x to a 5700x3d and loved it. Did that until I got a great deal on a bundle with a 7800x3d.
is the 8000 series expected to release around the same time in january?
@@khunshub1846 that’s a good question and I have not heard of a clear date on that release- but it’s on the way for sure .
