What GPU to choose

[RockstaYT]

Hey everyone,

I have some questions about to which GPU is should upgrade now that we about the 5000 series.
Till now I was rocking a 1080ti since launch and it did its job well.
Now it was phased out to my GFs machine and I'm planning on what to get next.

Now I'm in search for a new GPU that will serve me as long as the 1080ti did.
What would you suggest to get in todays market?
I was thinking on getting the new 9900x3d chip when it comes out.
But then do I go AMD or Nvidia as GPU?
And then which Version would you suggest?

Use case would be Gaming (different genres), Office Work (mostly web programming) and some machine learning that will come up at the end of the year in my studies (so nothing to complicated, but might be interested to keep working on it in the future).

As a monitor im using a Samsung G9 Oled, so it should be something that can run that many pixels at 240Hz

Thank you a lot for your help!!!

Regards
Joel

How much are you looking to spend? and what CPU do you have?

If its "I have unlimited BUDGET" then just get a top of the line system with a 285k 64gb ram and a 5090 (when that comes out)

9900X3D is the last CPU I'd get.  9800X3D or 9950X3D.  Why get a 6 core X3D cpu when 8 is the same price or cheaper?

 

People are still benching the 9070XT, 50 series cards, so wait a bit til the embargos lift.

I'm an Intel guy and even I can't recommend getting an Intel Ultra processor for gaming these days. The stability issues, and performance aren't all that great for the price. The 9000 series Ryzen X3D chips are the only options I recommend for gaming. In terms of raw gaming performance even the 9800X3D comes out ahead of the Ultra 9 for $120 or more cheaper. The 9900X3D would even be closer for multicore and workstation tasks then that as well with it's 12 cores and 24 threads. We won't know the actual comparison between the Ultra 9 and 9900X3D until it comes out but it will likely be even tighter, not to mention the 9950X3D dropping at that same time. If gaming is the primary focus AMD is where it's at. Not to mention the added benefit of AM5 being supported through 2027, so it also has a lot more longevity than Intel. If OP is going to want to go hard with the workstation stuff, then I'd say to consider Intel, but only after AMD's new CPUs come out and there are comparisons of them all.

Only reason I threw the 285k was for the infinite budget part and the machine learning

I by no means say its a good deal or the go to but he didnt say his budget or what CPU he now has cause it might be more than fine as well so i just said the most expensive stuff thats out

No budget limit, so 5090

Hey,

So thank you all for the answers!
Looks like im a bit early and it would help a lot to wait for the performance reviews.
I will keep the 5080 as well the 5090 in sight and see if the price difference also reflects in the performance difference
