Gtx 1080 or rx 460/1050ti

[Buddelbox]

So i was wondering, is it even worth it getting a GPU rnow? I can choose between the GTX 1080s or RX460s and 1050ti, apart from that the market is empty

[m0k]

sure

gtx 1080....

[Buddelbox]

Yeah like,the problem is if i chose a 1080 my wallet is empty and i have to downgrade the rest of my build

Or a used 1070? I'm picking one up tonight for $300. Plus there's 980 Tis out there as well. And 980s, 970s, R9 290Xs, etc.

You could always check B-stock. Or buy used.

B-stock?

 

[DarkRift5]

That's quite a gap in power there... I'd look into used hardware or wait for 1070s or 1060s to come back in stock.

[Buddelbox]

Problem is it is a mini TX build and most used cards arent blower style

[m0k]

okay well we cant recommend a gpu for you if you dont tell us the rest of your system specs and what resolution you game at

[m0k]

never mind i just checked your profile

you have a 4790k

your CPU can handle ANY GPU .....

Refurb models or ones damaged in manufacturing and such. They work fine, but they're scratched so they can't sell them at full price.

It is a new build, my actual build will never be upgraded, it is just fine how it is, the new Pc will become the Pc for my lil bro and HTPC in one

yah i was wondering why you were swapping from an I7 4790K to a worse CPU lol

 

anyway used GPUs is what id get here, or a 1060 6GB could be a good option

[Buddelbox]

As i said apart from 1060 3gb the market is literally gone

For 1440p, I'd get* a 1070. 

 

 

*should say am getting, since i'm actually getting one:
