Thoughts?

[Darkharry]

I found a 1080TI for 120e, im not sure which model but it has 2 coolers and they are RGB so i was wondering what are the thoughts, should i buy it or not, something i dont like is my PSU which is evga W1 600W so thats a yikes

 

I also got an offer of 100-120e for rtx 2060S and im not planning on going anywhere further than 1080p gaming, the 2060S is new and 1080TI is used

So in conclusion, should i buy the 1080TI (used) for 120e or 2060S (new) for 100-120e even tho i will game at 1080p

Are you talking like the stock air cooler and a waterblock, a Raijintek Morpheus, or two different stock air coolers? Can you include photos?

If you buy it, yeah you're going to need to get a PSU upgrade.

That's fine. 

 

OK, it looks like just a deshrouded air cooler, probably something like an EVGA Superclock. That's a fine option, it's just a little unconventional. 

 

If you can get a new PSU for a decent price, get the 1080 Ti, it's 100% the better option. If not, the 2060S is better, since while I would still want a PSU upgrade, it's not going to be as necessary as it would be with the 1080 Ti.

A new 2060 Super is a better bet, when you consider the 1080 Ti could be 6-7 years old at this point. That said, the 1080 Ti is faster in raw performance, even if it lacks ray tracing and DLSS support.

Yeah, I refreshed the page immediately after posting that response and saw them then. It doesn't really change any of my conclusions so I just left it as is.

get the 1080ti and buy a used rm850x or equivalent for 50€ which will be better than whatever garbage 650w bronze you can get for 50€ new and be able to keep it when you gpu upgrade even if its a 4090

 

might be able to haggle the 1080ti down abit cause the deshroud and the fans are pretty goofy looking
