3080Ti or RX 6900XT?

[Pessut]

I'm thinking about getting a new gpu and i can't decide between these two! I play on 1440p @ 180hz. I don't really care about Ray Tracing since i always leave that disabled. I wanna get as much fps as i can get. I also play to undervolt/overclock if that helps me get a little more performance. What would be the more *future proof* option?

[Tridefender]

neither, future proof would suggest you a 5080/5070 with perhaps dlss4

 

But if you ignore ray tracing you should opt for amd.

 

The 6000series have a core longitivity problem and might screw the core. Perhaps try 7900xtx?

Any reason for these old cards?

 

Even used its not uncommon for a 7900gre to end up being the same price if not cheaper new.

What is the price for both and equivalent cards?

Both are used:

AMD Red Devil 6900XT (100$)

MSI Ventus 3X 3080Ti (140$)

The're used and very cheap!

that's so cheap it's sus. Are you sure they are in working condiiton and not bricked ?

They were used for mining.

Shouldn't affect the performance, still sus they are so cheap, where are you buying them? If it's legit, i would definitely get the 6900xt, as it had a way better cooler, and more VRAM, definitely way more future proof

Yeah but they say 3080Ti has higher bandwitch!

You can try the 7900XTX or XT, or the RTX 4080 or Super, given you wanted 180 fps on 1440p. 6950XT can still work given you do not care much about ray tracing. Not even sure if the 4080 is with your financial or PSU budget.

I have 1000W PSU.

Those are scams

Can't tell if it's a joke or no, but that literally doesn't matter unless you want to primarily use the GPU for AI training, but then the 12GB of VRAM would be a big bottleneck

In that case then you can still try with either one I suggested. I think 6950XT would be good for you as well, as I doubt you need the RTX 4090's features anyway (and that thing is for 4K anyway, not that I myself is trying to save up for a 1440p GPU for 1080p in comparison anyway).
