https://edaurd.me/pctest/ (if u dare go to the root of my server and see my homepage, DO NOT JUDGE MY LOGO I STILL DID NOT FIND OR MAKE A BETTER ONE, and i'm going to redo that part anyway)

 

The reason why i'm asking it on this forum is because i always get support from everyone, and its techquicky forums, anyway, i'm buying my first ever used pc, and i need to make sure that 3-4 years down the road i'd still be able to operate this machine without any kind of "ewww you have a 1080 you can't play with us" kind of bullshit, and GTA 6 ofc... but i could always gather some small bucks to put down for a small upgrade

It's hard to tell ATM, 11 series NVIDIA GPUs are rumoured to be pretty powerful compared to Pascal cards so keep that in mind. 

That GTX 1080 seems to be performing fine, the guy in the video got a score of 4241 and the one in your picture got 4139.

hmm thats pretty intresting, but isn't unigine not only focused on the gpu, but also on processor? he probably had a different cpu bit better?
maybe that would explain the little increase of his score?

Probably. That performance difference won't really be noticeable in most games.

It rather hard to predict what system requirements are going to be in next few years. But there are good things. You can get i7 on mobo. Bad thing is that you can't OC. Might not be big deal, C2Q (2008) is still good budget CPU if you don't play latest titles or biggest resolutions. I have 5 year old i7 now and it would really need to be the heaviest games to take it down. Other heavy loads, well, that would require upgrades.

 

GPU is bit trickier. Usually its 2 years to play on highest detail and 1080p. Now with resolutions and refresh rates going up fast, its bit more guessing game. For just 1080p you are fine for maybe 3-5 years. For higher resolutions, maybe 2-3 years only.

 

Remember one thing. With hardware you are only looking at what you want. Not what anyone else expects. If you are willing to drop resolution, frame rate or graphical detail, you can certainly get more out of top-end GPU.

yeah its allright for me to play on 1080p, playing 4k feels way to weird for me right now, especially i wear glasses to look from distance and its really really akward to look at a 4k screen with my glasses on from a few meters

But anyway, are the benchmarks in general OK for this setup, because if they are like off then they should be i might pull out of the deal

I have only Cinebench scores from those posted and they don't really match. I have 107.67fps on weaker GPU. I don't really trust Cinebench as comparison overall, but that is odd result. Your seller is missing some benchmarks which are usually provided. Like 3DMark FireStrike and Unigine Heave/Valley. Furmark results are correct. I have 2 gen older top-end card.

i took the benchmarks myself,
well with these benchmarks, would it be ok to buy it or should i better pull out?

Benchmarks only tell if parts are performing or not. I personally don't use benchmarks to evaluate stuff, mainly because it requires comparison to equal setup. The locked i5 is that systems weakness. But if the total price is good deal considering you are getting both RAM and high-end GPU, it's worth it.

allright thanks for your advice, especially thinking about it i'm getting a 4k monitor with it (new 450eur)
