Question Is it a good deal buying a 1070 Ti for streaming e-sports at 1080p 60FPS ?

[jnne]

Hi guys! I'm in the journey of buying my first gaming pc, and I am not so sure if the GTX 1070 Ti would be a good gpu for my needs, I found it at 165 bucks on facebook marketplace. But I am not so sure that It will go well for streaming valorant at 1080p 60fps, I have a 144hz monitor and I would like to play at that frame rate while streaming at 60 fps, Do you guys think that It is a great choice?

I was planing to pair the GPU with a Ryzen 5 3600, a 550w PSU, 32gb of RAM and a B550 mobo.
I would really appreciate an answer, because I am not sure what to do, Thanks!

I have no issue with you going for a GTX 1070ti but you could go to ebay and for $ 150.00 buy a Titan X Pascal 12 GB GPU same as the GTX 1080ti.

I do realize were in a weird elevated mark up even on used GPU's due to world events so if where you are located there is no other cheaper 1070ti's or better if you could find a GTX 1080ti 11 GB or get a Titan 12 GB.

All will fit your needs and there all in the same price range. That's why I say go for the better bang for the same buck.

if your goal is only 1080p 2060 super would be a better choice should be able to find them on ebay at that price point.

just make sure min requirement is 550w a example would be the card from gigabyte
GV-N206SGAMING OC-8GC

i would not go for a card with 6gb of VRAM .
consider getting rtx 3060 12gb -
it should not cost you that much more on a second hand market compared to older 2060
and as for a 10xx cards they will no longer receive developer
driver support in the future .
(in my country i can find 12gb versions of rtx 3060 for 220-230 euros)

3060 has enough VRAM and it has the performance of rtx 2070
it is almost as good as 1080ti in raw rasterization performance .

Hi! thanks for answering, In the country I live ebay isn´t the best option, the shipment is way more expensive than the gpu, but in market place I found 3 different options.
1. 1070 at 57 bucks
2. 1070ti at 165 bucks
3. 1080 at 165 bucks

I also found the 2060 and 2060 super, but both of them are 250/220 bucks, I cannot spend that much money rn :c
I have never had a gaming pc, so I am not that demanding in terms of playing AAA games or stuff like that, my budget is max 400/450 bucks.
Which GPU from those 3 would you consider better for my needs? I was thinking the 1080 when I saw it last night, but I don´t know If it is that much of an improvement.

Thank´s for helping me out, have a nice day!

If those are your three choices get the GTX 1070 as it's only about 18 % slower than the GTX 1080.

If you had a choice of a GTX 1080ti than that would be a game changer but if you can get a GPU for $57 get that and bank the left over for a future GPU upgrade.

See the card working before you exchange cash.

1070 is no longer supported for driver updates, however that price is enticing.

that $57 price for gtx 1070 is suspiciously low,
not even gtx 1060 is usually selling this low .
i would be very cautious about this deal (it sounds too good to be true)
