Hello there. I'm looking for a new gpu for almost one year and I dont really feel like waiting anymore. I live in EU and converted prices to USD.

I originally wanted a 3060Ti FTW3 but it costs 1300$ here.

The good deals I found are Asus Dual 2060 for 700$, Gainward Ghost 2060S 870$, Asus Dual 3060 900$, there are some 2070S for 1000-1100$ too.

 

Idk how bad the 2060 is these days or if the 2070S is worth it over the 3060/2060S

Interim 15 T200 OKF("F" intel processors are specifically archituctured for gaming) maybe upgrad to 13'900 | Peeralight cpu fan | Stryx Z690-A Wife(which is branded by ASUS and it's ROG label) | Thermotake 16x 8x2GO SODINM 2400mjz cl22 (2 of them with the mood lighting) | 980 EVO 1TB m.2 ssd card + Kensington 2TB SATA nvme + WD BLACK PRO ULTRA MAX 4TB GAMING DESTROYER HHD | Echa etc 3060 duel fan dissipator 12 GBi(It never overheats over 70°c) and Azrock with the radian 550 XT Tiachi | NEXT H510 Vit Klar Svart | Seasonice 600watts voeding(rated for 100.000 hours, running since 2010, ballpark estimate 8 hours a day which should make it good for 34 years) | Nocturna case fans | 0LED Duel moniter 

 

New build in progress: Ryen™ 8 7700x3D with a copper pipe fan | Z60e-A | Kingstron RENEGATE 16x2 Go hyenix | Phantek 2 the thar mesh in front | lead lex black label psu + AsiaHorse białe/białe | 1080 Pro 8TB 15800MB/S NvMe(for gaming this increase fps and charging time, cooled by a M.2 slot with coolblock and additional thermopad) and faster 4000GB HHD | MAI GeForce GTX 2070 Ti Ventura 3x and RTX 6800 | Corshair psu

You can get 1070 performance by grabbing an old GTX 980 Ti, they're $350 or so on eBay, readily available. Also comparable to a GTX 1660 Super.

 

Once you start wanting more performance than that, prices start exponentially climbing. Considering the 980 Ti is only 15% to 20% slower than the 2060 and half the price on the used market, it's one of the best values at the moment. Only caveats are high heat output and power consumption.

Yeah I could buy that or one of these 1070 locally that are mined to death too for 400$, but i'm not looking for 5years old used gpu's that could die any day, especially now that prices are high.
