in terms of gaming it is a top of the line card you can game well at 1440p with it so i would consider it a high end card. also lets be real unless he is doing some heavy video editing who would need something stronger than a 2080 or a 2080s. just my humble opinion though

i have 2080s its actually better than a 1080 ti if you pair it with the right cpu in terms of gaming. my friend gets higher fps with a 1080 ti and i9 9900k(i have a r5 3600) in some games that are cpu dependent but when it comes to full gpu utilizing games i definitely get higher fps so the answer is yes it is better just pair it with a good cpu

I'd personally go for the cheapest 5700xt, and then grab the 3080/ti when they release.

I'd just get a 5600 XT is you absolutely need a card right now. It'll be a little better than the card you're borrowing and only 280 USD. Since you're planning on upgrading when Ampere comes out, it doesn't make sense to make a heavy investment right now.

okaay ill go with the cheaper 3600mhz cl17 the price is same with 3600mhz cl18 here with tighter timing, thankss for all the information.
