Need help planning my upgrades

[_CrisisRogue]

So Right now I am using a Ryzen 5 2600 and a GTX 660 (placeholder for an upgrade, had it lying around) with 16gb of ram and a 500GB NVME SSD, I want to game at 1440p 144Hz, but I don't really know what GPU I need for that, a 1080 Ti would only give me about 110fps in destiny 2 and will get worse framerates in future games, So I want basically an overkill/futureproof GPU upgrade so I don't have to upgrade my CPU right now, I will upgrade to zen 3 (with the new socket and all). I thought I could save up to a 2080 Ti, but I don't know if I will bottleneck it to death or just a bit. I'm willing to OC the CPU too (if I need to). Thank you for the help!

I should say I want RTX for minecraft and maybe the next destiny game in 2020-21?

The 2080 ti is as future proof as every GPU that came before it, that is to say, it's not at all. Since you can't see the future, don't worry too much about not getting performance you will want, aim for the performance you do want. Also if you have the money for a 2080 ti lying around, $200 for a 3600 won't hurt if you're concerned about a bottleneck

What could u buy right now?

is a 2080 super enough for your overkill needs? yes the ti variant has more power but 2080 super wouldnt lag far from it. @1440p

 

also i am concerned of that GTX 660 you wont play much lol (tho still not bad experience).

I know I'm buying a better gpu (RX 480) at the end of this week, a used one, for like 100 bucks, just to wait for the big upgrade in about two to three months

 

And a 2080 Super is practically a 1080 Ti, which isnt enough. Maybe a used titan Xp ?

I can hardly say the 2080 ti is worth it, plus you don't have to play at max settings

 

[SpiralTTGL]

2070 super is near same performance of 2080 with some overclocking you can reach 2080 performance at a cheaper price

 

also a 2080(non super) is already a 1080ti with less ram

I saw that video a while back, and I get it, but in 2 years I'd have to go to High instead of ultra and in five years medium and then low, instead  of like 2 years later for the Ti

ok good to know a RX 480 will come

 

lol NVidia just made basically 3 similar performing cards in history

Titan Xp (Pascal Titan X)

2080 super

1080 ti

 

mhm titan Xp is by little better or similar to a 1080ti

Again, you can't see the future so you don't actually know that

And there's a titan X pascal and an Xp, I was talking about the latter lol, a bit confusing

True, but that's my estimate

Trust me if you're always targeting the future you'll always be spending more money and not actually getting what you want

this ^^^^

 

if i remember Xp which came out later than X pascal ughhh

 

so within that 3 months u expect the 2080 ti on ur computer while rockin' a RX 480? ok not a bad decision on my view

Nvm a used Xp is the price of a 2080 Ti soooo that's what I'll do (get the 2080 Ti)
