hello.

Story is my friend's GF is moving to US because of work and selling her pc parts on a low. 1080 ti for $300 cad and my friend is willing to sell his 2080 ti for $450 cad if he get his hands on 3080/3090. My question is does my system can even handle this graphics cards? If can, is the CPU bottleneck even playable? Also I'm planning to build a pc in 2021.

 

 

My spec:

CPU : Intel -    Core i7-3770K (cant overclocked coz of the motherboard)

Motherboard : Gigabyte - GA-B75M-D3H

Memory :         16gb 1333 MHz

Power Supply : planning to buy a new PSU

Any bottleneck is playable, just not at the maximum performance the card can produce with an optimal CPU. If you are going to build a new PC in 2021, maybe buy the 2080 Ti  then use it later with the new PC.

yea, the only worry is PSU and you seem to be getting a new one

it won't be worse than what you're getting now

best case is it'll get better if you're GPU limited by the 1080ti

 

though being CPU limited may produce frame pacing issue, just limit fps if that's the case

Even though the board has limited options

The 1333Ram could very well work fine at 1600Mhz all the life of the PC.

Id try it.
