hey guys,

Getting a new build together and am torn on what gpu to get, the 1070Ti or the 1080

It will be paired with the i7-8700k and 16 gb of g.skill trident z ram

wanting best price/performance and also want something that will last a few years

And whilst im on the topic, with the prices of the 1080Ti going up (thanks cryptocurrencies) is it even worth getting at the moment, what do you guys think

Thanks

If it is for gaming it does not matter, the 1070 Ti is like 3 fps behind on average after BOTH are OC... that's it.... get the cheapest.

Nope, Gaming wise as you can see on the video above it is pretty much identical.

 

Streaming is CPU bond not GPU bond.

 

Video Editing, both have far too similar CUDA Cores count meaning even if you render with CUDA Acceleration enable it will be darn too similar.

 

Moral of the story, again, get the cheapest.

being that there very similar if your really budget tight 1070TI if you have the extra Dollars get the 1080.

 

They have very similar Price to performance #s.

 

If you can get the 1080 for only $0-40 more then the 1070TI id go 1080

at $50-60 its whatever you want both will be pretty good choices

at $70+ difference get the cheaper 1070 TI

 

Currently the USD prices ive seen the 1070TI are about $470 and ive seen really budget 1080s go for  490 so in that case id go for the 1080
