Yeah, I also got a 5070 TI. It couldn't do high refresh with my most demanding game at 1440p with ray tracing (Control) but it pretty much runs everything else super smoothly. Also
>prices coming down

lmao. The only good thing to come out of the current shortages is next year is that high end monitors are going to be a fucking steal. I'm super glad I did all my other upgrades in 2023 and waiting till 2025 to do the GPU.

Nvidia and AI and the AAA industry are sons of bitches who assassinated the 10 series early with Unreal and RTX to force us all onto their billion dollar bloat cards because we had the audacity to not really need to upgrade to a 20 series or 30 series and then bloated their new cards they forced us to buy to significantly above their actual worth by tricking the senile fuckers in the US government that they'll be able to create a sentient being out of a chatbot

Well that makes you a potential cyber terrorist, because who else wouldn't comply for their safety to 'stop the spread'? A bad goy, that's for sure.

Go for a 5080 msi costco prebuilt. They were 2100, prob 2500 now after sale ended. 9900x, 5080, 32gb ddr5 1tb ssd. Mine (before I took it back and made a custom pc) ran 62 celsius gpu on cyberpunk 4k with no raytracing

I have a 3080 and 5090, I spend most of my time on the 3080 cause I like where it's set up, and the gains I get from the 5090 aren't that noticeable for what I generally play. So yeah, I think you'll be fine.
>>
>>729778995
>wait for a sale
Don't do that buddy. You just missed the huge holiday sale. But even that 2600 + tax going to be much cheaper than waiting..its only that price because the prebuilt existed at costco before the ram crisis. That will easily turn into a 3500$ pc. Buy it now - but at least you get 3 months to return it for ANY REASON and a 3 year warranty
Which you can add 2 years to for 100 bucks.
5 years of gaming before any worries at all whatsoever.

Another thing - if I end up being wrong and they do a sale 4 months after you buy it. You can go in and ask for the difference between the sale price and what you paid. Costco will give you a few hundred back even though you own it.

>plays everything that's worth playing maxed at 4
Not even. He's good for ANY resolution below that. You're not maxing most games at 4k, unless it's something really old or not very demanding. 4K is a compromise resolution, where even a 5090 will have to compromise on certain games to hit max and certainly will not be reliably hitting max at 60+ on the next set of big game releases. It's not the standard yet or even close to it, so it's fine. I just don't get why people lie about anything below an 80 series (4080/5080) cards are going to reliably do 4k at max.

DLSS, retardo. The higher your base resolution the more benefit you derive from it.
4k DLSS performance looks and performs better than 1440p DLSS quality.

>>729781216
>DLSS, retardo. The higher your base resolution the more benefit you derive from it.
If you're going to set it to performance or anything lower, then what's the point of even playing at 4K or MAX? Just change the settings to mid-high and enjoy that.
>4k DLSS performance looks and performs better than 1440p DLSS quality.
Sure, but that's also because games look like shit natively and are designed around DLSS. That's not the point. I have a 5080 and even it struggles with 4K at max for the newer games. It's just something you have to accept moving forward, ESPECIALLY with how badly optimized games are these days. My brother got a 4070 a week before I got my 5080 (we both got them during the sales), and he even entertained the idea of swapping his for a 5080 instead, since he bought a 4k monitor the same time I did. A 4070 will do fine on 4k with medium or high settings at a mostly stable 60 for most games. It'll even handle ultrawide 1440p, but it's not going to thrive at 4k because it's not built for it. Nvidia may say it is, but they also said we'd be getting 5080/5090 performance with DLSS enabled. Maybe at super performance DLSS settings that looks like shit.
