Hello,
my current set-up is:
GPU: 8GB MSI GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER GAMING X TRIO Aktiv PCIe 3.0 x16
CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 5900X 12x 3.70GHz So.AM4 WOF
Motherboard: SI MPG X570 GAMING EDGE WIFI AMD X570 So.AM4 Dual Channel DDR4 ATX
RAM: 32GB (2x 16GB) Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4-3200 DIMM CL16-20-20-38 Dual Kit
PSU: 750 Watt be quiet! Dark Power Pro 11 Modular 80+ Platinum
One 3440x1440 and one 2560x1440 monitor.
I’ve been upgrading my PC bit by bit and now I wanted to get a new GPU to make the widescreen experience more enjoyable and to stream on the side.
Performance wise I get some noticeable dips in the overworld in Elden Ring, Cyberpunk runs decently with medium settings and FFXIV dips below 60 when a lot other players are on screen.
Looking at available cards in my area (Germany) I mostly have RTX 4080s ready for in store pick ups.
Initially I wanted to go for a 3080 but those are out of stock and the price difference between 3090s and a 4080 isn’t that high in theory, sometimes the 3090s are cheaper, but availability is.
Upgrading to a 4080 would also definetely entail a PSU upgrade which is within my budget.
Should I go for the 4080+PSU route, go for an AMD gpu or just wait?
