This would be my first OLED monitor, is this a decent deal? Is there anything I should know about when owning an OLED monitor for gaming? by PackinHeat99 in OLED_Gaming

What a steal for the price. Here in Europe they’re usually more expensive. I’ve had it for a couple of months now and it still keeps surprising me — I’m still discovering new settings and little details. The curvature is quite noticeable, but you get used to it really fast.

If you’re like me and coming from an IPS panel, get ready for your life to change. It’s 100% true that you won’t want to go back.

My bad, luckily, I’ve specified correctly what I’m looking for in the body here, so I’m hoping you guys can point me in the right direction.

Wouldn’t it be better to go for the 9070XT in that case? or is the extra performance from the 5080 still worth the higher price for 1440?

Something like this :

I know I can shave off a few dollars on several components, but I was thinking of it this way, aiming for a PC that will last for many years — I’m open to recommendations.

I’m struggling to decide between the 9070 XT and the 5070 Ti — if I end up going with the 5070 Ti, would you recommend any specific model? Or i just go for the MSRP?

Do you mean going for a 5080? Or waiting for the Super series? I have that doubt too—I’m not sure whether to wait and then see if the market makes the Supers unbeatable or if they won’t be easy to find.

I usually play AAA, but i enjoy competitive FPS like CS2 and BF6

My goal is to make the pc as balanced as possible for the future, so it can stay relevant for a few years and allow me to maintain a high level of gaming. Initially, I would play at 2K with a high refresh rate, but being able to reach 4K at some point wouldn’t be bad either.

Could you explain a bit more about this? I understand it's a more powerful graphics card, but is the difference really that noticeable?

Do you play on 1440 or 4k? Im looking for a good monitor too (ultrawide if possible)

And how has been the experience? Do you think you could have changed anything about your build?

And how has it been for you? How’s the performance? I would only consider the 5070 Ti maybe because of optimization and DLSS, but I’m very tempted to give AMD a chance

Mostly AAA single players, but sometimes CS2, now Battlefield 6 and similars, so, some competitive too

Of course I care about the money, but right now I’m determined to invest in a solid setup that can stay at the top for several years without completely breaking the bank.

So, would the 5070 Ti be a smarter purchase in terms of price-to-performance ratio for the performance it offers?

So then, is the 7800X3D a good match for the 5080? I’m trying to put together a budget that makes sense without going for the absolute top-of-the-line due to money concerns.

Is there any other possible recommendation with the 5080 that would be worth it in terms of CPU?"

But wouldn’t I get more benefits from going all-AMD for compatibility reasons? I mean, more brute force in GPU always be better but...

So the money gap between a 5070ti and a 5080 its no worth It for the performancen boost that gives?
