RIght now is the best opportunity with the 9070XT being at MSRP. It's totally worth it at that cost. There is a big difference between 12GB and 16GB.

You could see the 4070 Ti at around $400 - $500 since it is a bit faster than the 5070 and would appeal to those in that price range.

Unless you meant you already have the 4070 Ti Super and the regular.

No, i mean im not in the market for a GPU at the moment, but will switch to AMD for the next upgrade. Ive not had any issues with VRAM with the 4070Ti so far, i'm only gaming at 3440x1440, when the time comes(a game i'm interested in that runs like crap on 12GB VRAM) ill reduce settings.

I assume you don't play UE5 games?

UE5 is an unoptimized pile of dogshit. Epic and the developers using that engine need to do better.

Unreal engine is the biggest scam in the industry when other engines such as Crytek, idtech, and Decima are all available and have almost NONE of the optimization issues. TYo be fair, I dont believe idtech and decima are licensed out. But I do know Crytek is available and Kingdom Heart Deliverance 2 looks fine and runs well.

Anything that uses UE5 (or even UE4 if I am being honest) is immediately a turn off for me.

I keep hearing about all these changes in DirectX and Unreal Engine that eliminate microstutter, traversal stutters, yet they still fucking remain.

I'm going to need that 6090.

You know OverHeat is on that shit like honey on a dead man in an army ants nest.

I dont know if I feel like paying a scalper this time though. Its not like my 4090 is struggling. I'll patiently wait for an opportunity to get it for around sticker price.

The 80 series has been so badly neutered these last two gens. It has nearly half the CUDA cores of the 90 series and I'd like to see them up the CUDA core count to what the 4090 is now. I feel like the 3080 was the last decent 80 series GPU we had.

If the 6080 has decent generational uplift, I could see myself finally parting with my 4090. I was sick at my stomach with what I paid for my 4090 ($1700) and considering that it could take me into the 7000 series, it actually feels like I got an OK deal.

I am very much hoping that AMD can offer a 4090 competitor soon, so I can easily ditch WIndows on my gaming desktop PC. I don't have to worry about the HDMI 2.1 headaches there like I do for my living room PC, which is where I REALLY want the SteamOS/Bazzite OS.

While it's true that the 80 series has significantly fewer CUDA cores, there's also a significant price difference between the 90 series.

My last high-end graphics card was $750 Asus Strix GeForce GTX 1080 Ti. On average, it was 26% faster than the standard GTX 1080, so I thought it was worth paying an extra $200 for it in 2017. I used it for three years and sold it in 2020 during the mining craze and pandemic for the same price. Therefore, gaming on that card cost me nothing.

When I built my current PC, the RTX 4090 cost $2,000. That was literally twice the price of the RTX 4080 Super, and I didn't think the 24% performance difference at 4K was worth it (95fps vs 118fps based on 25 games tested). Remember that the 1080ti delivered similar gains (26%) for only $200. Although the RTX4080S was slower than the RTX4090, it was still fast enough to meet my needs. I was still impressed by it's performance at native 4K, and the 50% improvement over the RTX 3080 was also solid.

I bought the RTX 4080 Super and I've never felt like I'm missing out on anything compared to the RTX 4090. If a game is too demanding for my RTX 4080 Super, it's also too demanding for the RTX 4090. I will be able to buy the RTX6080 with the $1000 I have saved, and I can still sell my RTX4080S next year, which will make that buying decision even easier.

PhysX support isn't non-existant. 32-bnit support is gone. 64-bit is still present.

Hopefully now that nvidia have released the code it we will get 32 to 64 bit wrappers.

Mirrors Edge and Bioshock (OG version) safe ?

I'll be pretty pissed if the 5060 TI is performing worse than my previous 3060. PhysX is still too heavy to pass over to the CPU.

Current Gen is stuck between well optimized games that deliver over 60 fps even on 4k and broken unreal engine slop that dips to low 30 if you dare to move the camera even a little while looking like half life 1.

If we manage to fix this, 40 and 50 series will still be relevant in 4 years easily.
