Hi all.

Have a choice of going with a used 4080FE for €800, or a new 9070XT for €720.
I play on 1440p, mostly racing sims, plan to use some VR and will be buying a widescreen 1440p monitor soon.

Currently have a 3080 FE.

Which one would you guys go for?

I’m currently on AM4: 5800x, 32GB 3600Mhz RAM.

I like the look and feel of the FE cards, but it’s a tough choice here.

Hi all.

Just wondering if I could get some help pricing my card before I put it up for sale soon, as will be looking for an upgrade.
Things aren’t easy to judge, so wish to get some opinions from ye.

3080ti, Founders Edition, boxed, with all manuals and the power lead. In great condition.
Never mined on, seems to be a fairly rare card being the founders one, but I doubt that this fact is adding any value to it.

What would be a reasonable price?

What would be the best 1440p GPU for up to €1000?
I’ve found a few GPU’s that seem to fill this criteria, but deciding on one isn’t that easy.

Will be mainly playing triple a, lots of assetto, Cyberpunk, all sorts of Assassins Creed, zero competitive games. I like to turn up the details in games as much as it’s possible, but I realise that there is an element of diminishing return on “ultra”.
Will also want to try some VR in the nearest future for the driving games as I will be looking into buying bits for a drifting sim.

Contestants:

AMD-
7900XT/XTX
7800XT
9070XT

Nvidia-
5070/Ti
4080
4070Ti Super

Current specs:
R7 5800x
32GB 3600mhz
PSU RM 850x

Any input appreciated.

Hi all.
Just. A quick question for anyone who might know.

Where would be the best place to buy founders edition RTX 4000 or 5000 series cards (new)?
Anywhere online I look it’s only card from AIB’s that are being sold.

Is second hand the only way to obtain one?

I have a 3080ti and 3070ti both founders that I will be looking at upgrading this year, but would like to stick to the look of the founders if possible.

Hi all.

Considering one of the above cars as a weekend car.

Just wondering if anyone had any experience with these cars. What are they like maintenance wise? Are bits easy to get still or have to import from Germany or something?

I am good with working on my own cars, have a garage, and have some experience with older german cars and the headaches they can cause.
Just wondering would these old mercs be any different/better?

And another question.
Is it worth bringing one of them over from England? Is the VRT really only €200?

Hi all.
I’m playing mostly 1440p, no path tracing but trying to use like the highest settings in games. I play mostly triple a titles, some sim racing etc, none of the competitive stuff at all.

Still on AM4, running a 5800x and 32GB ram (3600mhz), and considering upgrading my good old brute of a 3080ti founders due to the unfortunate vram limitation. It’s not too bad yet, but I can see it slowly starting to struggle once you crank some settings up or even consider running games on 4k (I play on a tv).
Would also like to start playing around with VR a bit and this card may not suffice?

Was looking at these on the used market:
7900xt (€550)
7900xtx (€750)
9070xt (€700)
4070ti super (€800)

Which one would you all go for given those choices?
Also open to any other suggestions of cards, but wouldn’t want to spend more than €800 if possible.

Hi all. Is it only me that feels this titles reviews are horribly undeserved (10/10, really…)? Maybe the whole handholding thing is not for me, but I think this is one of the only actually honest reviews out there.
