Need Help With PC Plan

homelesskermitt · April 9, 2021

Budget (including currency): N/A

Country: U.S.

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: VALORANT, Apex Legends, R6S, GTA *(Maybe)*

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc):

So I have a Corsair 4000D build with 2 stock fans, 3 Coolmoon fans, X570 MSI MPG Wifi, AMD Ryzen 3700x, and I have a 3060ti that I will be hopefully bagging within the next month or so, but I was wondering whether or not I should throw in my AMD RX 470. Fairly new to PC builds, and was wondering if it would be a good temporary GPU until I get that 30 card, and why or why not. Thank you.

The RX 470 is still a decent GPU, for what your doing expect decent frame rates. When you get your 3060ti just make sure too uninstall your radeon drivers and install the 3060ti ones

I don't see any negatives of putting it in, at least you could use the computer, you probably would not be able to do a ton of gaming, but you could use it to both use and test the computer.
