Posted November 21, 2019 Hey guys, I'm trying to figure out whether my computer can support a 2080TI. I was going to build a new rig, but it comes out close to 3000 CAD for what I want. So instead, I'm thinking about just buying a Gigabyte Aorus Extreme 2080TI to run in my current pc. I would like to get some opinions on if I need a bigger power supply, a better processor, etc. to run on a 4k TV at 60hz, and also at 1440 at 120hz. Here are the specs of my current build, all I would change is the graphics card. PCPartPicker Part List CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 2600 3.4 GHz 6-Core Processor ($169.00 @ Canada Computers) Motherboard: ASRock X470 Master SLI/AC ATX AM4 Motherboard ($179.00 @ Canada Computers) Memory: G.Skill Trident Z RGB 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3000 Memory ($104.99 @ Amazon Canada) Storage: Kingston A400 480 GB 2.5" Solid State Drive ($66.90 @ shopRBC) Video Card: Zotac GeForce RTX 2060 6 GB GAMING Video Card ($681.99 @ Amazon Canada) Case: Cooler Master MasterCase H500 ATX Mid Tower Case ($149.99 @ Canada Computers) Power Supply: EVGA SuperNOVA G3 650 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply ($145.99 @ PC-Canada) Total: $1497.86Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when availableGenerated by PCPartPicker 2019-11-21 15:52 EST-0500 thanks so much for your help!

Posted November 21, 2019 Looks good. Of course, you can always drop a new processor in later if need be I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B Primary PC: i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me. Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference. How many watts do I need?

Do you think I'm going to face any bottle necking issues at all? I'm also currently seeing if I can vertical mount it into my case, but it doesn't seem likely lol Link to comment https://linustechtips.com/topic/1126121-upgrading-to-2080ti/#findComment-13065831 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted November 21, 2019 I wouldn't. It's kind of a waste of money, what with their next gen cards only a few months away.

Posted November 21, 2019 Author Thanks guys, I just wanted to make sure that my system can run a 2080TI. From what I've researched and fasauceome's feedback, it seems like I'm good to go!

That's more than sufficient to tide him over, and save him probably close to $600. @erthwormsam If you're set on wasting the money, at least try and grab one from MemoryExpress's open box section if there's one close to you. They often sell for around $1,000.

Posted November 21, 2019 You can push 4K60 on a Radeon VII, 1080 Ti, or any card at that performance level (so a 2080/2080 Super, 2070 Super and 5700XT on the lower end). All those cards are around half the price of most 2080 Tis.
