Posted December 14, 2020 The title says it all. Which one should I choose? I have a 980ti and I really want to upgrade but things didn't turn out well with 3000 series cards prices. There's a seller online of used cards. 1080 FE for $200 and MSI 1080ti Gaming X for $300. My 980ti is a reference model which heats up to its max temp (83c) and I'm thinking of skipping the 1080fe for the same reason. Is the 1080ti worth the additional $100 or get the 1080 instead? I only play on 1080p60. Thanks for the help! Rig: CPU: Intel Core i7 7700 | Motherboard: Asus Maximus IX Code | RAM: G.

And then there's cyberpunk. I only reach 30 to 35 fps at most times using the optimized settings. Rig: CPU: Intel Core i7 7700 | Motherboard: Asus Maximus IX Code | RAM: G.

Posted December 14, 2020 I went 980Ti to 1080Ti and that made quite a jump. Given it is Cyberpunk, how does it run on lower end RTX cards? I haven't compared benchmarks but where does a 2060 or 2070 fall?

I haven't compared benchmarks but where does a 2060 or 2070 fall? 2070 is around between 1080 and 1080ti. Thanks for answering everyone. I'll sell my 980ti for 180 and buy the 1080ti for 300.
