Posted May 20, 2019 Nvidia cards support Freesync now, so go with the 2080. Link to comment https://linustechtips.com/topic/1065384-decision/#findComment-12580430 Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted May 20, 2019 G-sync is pointless these days. Also if you want to save a little, you can allways grab a Radeon 7 instead.

Posted May 20, 2019 I'd choose neither. I'd get a vega 64 with a freesync panel. You don't need a 2080 for 1080p unless you want crazy framerates in assassins creed odyssey. Other than that horribly built game, vega 64 is perfect for 1080p 144hz. It also gives you a little bit of space for another 2 or 3 years to maintain 144hz. The RTX 2070 costs an arm and a leg for pretty minimal performance gains over vega 64 and rtx 2060.
