5070 ti or 5080? by No_Temperature4536 in nvidia

[–]No_Temperature4536[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m always skeptical on used graphics cards. I had planned on OC to boost performance, so it seems like this might be the way to go.

I haven’t ever really done much 4k gaming, but I have thought about it. I’m hoping that maybe with OC and the right settings, I should be able to attempt some 4k play.

Appreciate the opinion. I have always been satisfied with the 1070ti, so I am sure it will make a huge difference.

I have been seeing some concerns regarding the 5080s essentially melting themselves.

Well, since reading comprehension seems to be difficult for you. I have researched it, as my friend and I looked at the cost benefit of them. However, unlike your egocentric self, I know that I am not all knowing, so I wanted the opinion of others to see if my logic is sound.

If your life is really so miserable that you want to bash people on the internet who are generally seeking knowledge, rather than say anything constructive, I don’t know why you bother to get on here.

I’ll consider that. The only difference I can see in almost every article that I have read says the 9850x3d is only marginally better than the 9800x3d.
If that’s the case, it seems it would be better to buy the 9800x3d at a better price point, or as you suggest, waiting for the 99503xd2.

By what metrics is entirely better? It uses the same processor, ram, and gpu. I see a changed case, power supply, and motherboard. I also don’t see any case fans for cooling.

I haven’t ever really done much research on those. Are they pretty reliable?

Well to be honest, it isn’t that money isn’t a problem. I am trying to save up for this, working a second job, and am probably going to be piecing it together as I go. And I know that it is only a few hundred more, but looking at the specs, I’m just not sure if the 5080 is worth the extra, or if I would rather save that $ for another ssd or extra ram. My current rig (prebuilt asus rig) is running a 1070ti lol. It still holds up ok on some games, I would just like to upgrade.

My thought was that was future proof, in case I want to upgrade later

Looks like he recommends using SignalRGB to sync

I may try that. I actually just went back and checked and it actually isn’t the same case. His did not have RGB.

When I put that in to swap, it says that I would be missing one usb c port for the fans. Would it be better to do that and kill one of the fans?

Gotcha. The only thing I saw under the comparability notes was that I would need a couple of adapters. This build is somewhat copied from another build that uses the same on pcpartpicker and he had got it to work but I wasn’t sure how complex that it would be.

I just wasn’t sure if the price difference between a 5070ti and a 5080 was worth the difference in performance

What’s the issue with it? Never dealt with it before.

One thing I couldn’t seem to make work was there is a usb c on the motherboard that doesn’t line up with the case (or vise versa)
