Need help plz

[CroixFrozy]

I have an i5-6400 with a GTX 1050 ti,8 gb ram. I've been keeping an eye out on local deals and found some sweet ones. My question for you guys is do I KEEP my current rig and upgrade it with a GTX 1080 and add 8gb more ram or sell it and get one of these listed below (and possibly upgrade them) :

I7-2600, GTX 980, 8 gb ram (ddr3) 500$

I7-3770, GT 730,16 gb ram (ddr3)  260$

(If I buy this one I'd put a GTX 1070 inside or something) 

I5-4570, GTX 970,8 gb ram (ddr3)  315$

I5-2500K, GTX 1060 (3gb), 16 gb ram (ddr3) 340$

And I would want to know if this is worth  its price :

I5-3570, RX 280X, 8 gb ram,SSD + HDD

PSU 750W                                        200$

(Prices are converted from € to $ and all of these rigs are considerably cheap in my country)

Tell me what your gameplan would be looking at those builds as a whole and their upgrade paths and price-wise of course. What would be the best pick here? 

I'm thankful for any given help. 

Have a nice day.

All of those systems are a downgrade.

I would definitely do the upgrade with the 1080 and 8gb ram. This would give you a very noticeable performance increase and last you quite a few years. None of those other deals look particularly bad, but as far as performance goes, they are significantly lower teir

Used 1080, sure

 

New 1080, no. New 1080s are often much more expensive than they were as they're not in production anymore. Even if it was at it's previous price, an RTX equivalent(2060 Super/2070) would be a much better buy.

This and later a cpu upgrade for all the games that just don't run well on a quad core.

It's a 1080 for 335$

There's also a Gigabyte Windforce 2x 1070 OC for 215$ tho.

Yeah I know...Like instead of upgrading I'd go from lga1151 to a 1155 lol... But that i7-3770 with 16 gigs of ram was really inviting.

Would rather build myself another pc with a Ryzen 5 3400G 16 gigs of ram apu gaming pc then buy a new 1080...

That's a plan as well... Keep a 1080 with 16 gigs of ram and just switch the CPU and mobo for a Ryzen 4th gen probably when I see it's choking.

For the price of that 1080 you could pay a little more and probably snag a new rx5700 (xt). Which is a bit better. The 1070 is a lot better value but a fair few 1660ti or super go for that price which perform the same.

I get you but can't pull that one off in Europe... Our prices are really higher and a bit odd... While the used 1080 is 335$, a brand new RX 5700XT is 560$. A brand new 1660 ti is 305$ at the lowest seller.

Then I'd say the 1070 is still a very good value proposition but if you want to feel free to get the 1080. What versions of the cards are these? Just so you don't buy a crappy cooler one.

Gigabyte Windforce 2x 1070 OC for 215$,

Palit GTX 1080 JetStream for 335$

or

Gigabyte GTX 1080 G1 Gaming for 335$
