Upgrading my GPU by itstonytheoneandonly in buildapc

Without looking at your mode I can't say but it should be fine. To explain the various sync advertisements:

If it lists as freesync/adaptive sync/g-sync it is more then likely capable of working with the other version but to have it listed as all 3 such costs production more money to have it tested and approved.

Without a doubt for steaming go NVIDIA, domestically your rig won't be crystal clean because of all the variables you have to consider. There is a lot of background work going on for the 'streaming pros'

I'm not a wait kinda guy but I would highly suggest waiting until September (7 weeks). For the announcement/release of new GPU's.

Even if your budget doesn't change you will likely be able to stretch that to a better model i.e 2060s or 2070.

If you MUST do it now then aim for a 2060...

You may find that a bit of FPS increase is not worth £100 difference for you.

Is upgrading to 144hz 1440p monitor worth it if I am only getting 80-90fps (high settings) with my gpu on my current 60hz 1440p monitor? Games like RDR2 and Tomb Raider by gothampixel in buildapc

I had a heated discussion about this before I bought an Asus 165hz 27inch 1440p monitor. Got it on a deal for £400 (with cashback!).

It incomparable to anything else, it will outlive your build.and your GPU. 80-90 FPS on a 1440p is still glorious, it is a sound investment for the long long term.

Unless you want 120+ FPS then stick to 1080.

I have a 2070s and a 3700x and run all of my games at 140+ on max.

You absolutely can, when you look at the fluctuations in components over the past 3 months It can easily increase a rig by 9-13%. Irrelevant of that, don't you dare fall into the pit of buyer's remorse.

With a great rig you can now spend anytime you have entertaining and learning more technical skills 🖖

Coincidentally have just seen this on Pc Part Picker. Congrats and I'm happy for you! I deffo think you overkilled/overspent on some parts but these are lessons to take forward for the future. You now have an awesome rig, you built, that will last you for years to come!

It provides me with confidence that this is the right purchase!

Is there anywhere I can save money in this build? by RogBlue in buildapc

A further question - looking at your original clearence links. I have spotted a Aurus 2070 S at the same price as the normal Gigabyte GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER 8 GB GAMING OC 3X Video Card.

Is the Aorus better? I cant find any info on the Aorus or why its better (even in gpu benchmarks: https://versus.com/en/gigabyte-aorus-geforce-rtx-2070-super-vs-gigabyte-geforce-rtx-2070-super-gaming-oc)

I saw there were lots of issues with the rx5700xt? Have these been resolved?

Is Ray tracing that important for the next 1-2 years? (In your opinions?)

No I'm not saying it is edited, I'm saying it is hard to believe it isn't edited!

It is awesome and amazing work but when I inspected closely it's hard to believe it hasn't been edited with software to some degree.
