needed help with buying used card

[PolishGuy]

Hi my name is polish guy,

Im planning on buying a used gephics card for 1080p 144hz gaming

i have been looking at used gtx 1080 ti's a lot and i have seen some for about 350+ euros.

but i was wondering if a gtx 1070 ti whould be enough for 1080p 144hz gaming.

the games that i mostly play are Apex legends, Gta V and sometimes valorant

 

if you could help me with making my decision you're free to comment.

thank you in advance

1070 or 1070Ti should be more than fast enough.  I use a GTX 1080 for 1440P 144Hz.

thank you for responding, does it actually saty at around 144fps ?

and is the gtx 1080 worth it for the same price as a gtx 1070 ti used ?

whould it also be overkill if i'd buy the gtx 1080 ti ?

A 1070ti is slightly behind the 1080 

If they are the same price get a 1080

It's basically a 2080 with a bigger frame buffer ( granted it's slower tho ) 

Is it over kill ? 

Nothing is really over kill, everyone has their needs

If you want new getting something comparable to a 1080 would be the 5600xt

1080ti equivalent would be the 2070 super / 5700xt / 2080 

5700xt being the best value

Might need to change the settings a bit in some games but yeah, and at 1080P you'll have no troubles

The 1080 has slightly better performance so do that one if they're the same price.  Otherwise just go for whichever is a better deal

Overkill is relative.  If you want a 1080Ti then get it, but you don't need it (well, really a 1060 will probably get you most of the way there and the rest is just gravy)

Thanks for the responses, you helped me out as far as you could, now I have to decide, but I think I'm gonna go with the 1080 ti or non ti depends on the deal I get. Thanks again and have a nice day ya'll
