As title says, I am unsure what to do right now with my PC.
Currently I sport R9 290 Vapor-X along with R5 1600 and 16Gigs of ram. This gpu is already 4 years old and is showing its age. Right now I have a 75Hz freesync monitor which I plan on upgrading to 144Hz Freesync monitor after I collect enough cash after (possible) gpu upgrade.
As the market in my country seems (Europe). I was considering purchasing a used GPU. As AMD cards are overpriced and there is nothing in my budget (rip freesync), I was considering getting an 1070 Gaming X for 323€ (Barely 6 months old) or 1070Ti Gaming X for 377€ (Year old). Are these prices still inflated and should I wait out a bit longer or go for one of these two options? With 1070 I'd have cash faster for 144Hz monitor upgrade, however 1070Ti would give me a longer future proof and I really love to future proof my system. Alternatively, my "idea" was, whoever lowers the price first from sellers, I'd go with that GPU.
I would appreciate any opinion. Thanks.
