    Really interested on the back of this I managed to get a 3070 Aorus master as a really really lucky impulse buy. The card as far as I’m concerned is worth it as it was an upgrade from a 1060 6gb, however I made the dumb mistake of paring this with a 60hz 1080p monitor. I’m now in a situation where my i7 7600k is running 75% and my GPU is running at 75% but my monitor is just not up to the task. Bottom line don’t go and spend loads of money on a GPU if you have a crap monitor, you won’t notice the difference and you’ll need another £400 to really see the difference in panels. Totally my 2 pence on the subject and any monitor recommendations would be great to receive. Sorry for the ramble here’s a thumbs up 👍 as we don’t have a 🥔

      I know your comment was meant to be a joke... But... For it's performance, your 1050Ti's 4Gb is a good fit. While pushing settings, you'd drop into unplayable framerates long before you run into memory pool size problems..
      However, for it's performance, the 3070's 8Gb is not a good fit.. It's running into memory bottlenecks (and resultant stuttering) in current titles, long before it hits it's performance ceiling, and that's at just 1440p!! (as noted in Hardware Unboxed's review, Watch Dogs Legion with hi rez texture setting)... Not good.

      @RobBCactive Před 3 lety +3

      Exhausting hot air into the CPU cooler area is considered evil and rude. An AIO front radiator sucking air in won't suffer but there's limited space to duct that flow of hot air away from air coolers. Yes, it has been shown experimentally to raise temps in cases.
      Cards have generally sucked in cool air from below and then pressure (and convection) forces it around the card sides or directly out of the case.
      The problems using this style of card in some cases as air is trapped against a plate, demonstrates mini-case designers wanted to partition CPU and card airflow

  • @JJay-ni3vv
    @JJay-ni3vv Před 3 lety +4

    I think 6800xt is the smart buy. 16 gigs and 3080 performance plus. All these cards with minimal Vram 8Gb - 10Gb keep us spending money every year or every other year. Even if you play 1080p, games would grow into the performance peaks eventually. So if your tired of paying so often, go big and coast for awhile. That's my plan, I'm gonna overshoot and take a break from the spending grind. my eyes are set on a 3080 tho, GDDR6X

    • @blxsssedits

      Severely lacking IMHO, when the inflated prices are factored in.. It's already been proven to bottleneck CURRENT games, even at lower resolutions than 4k, like 1440P! As noted in the Hardware Unboxed review, they ran into issues in Watchdogs Legion while trying to run the high resolution textures, again, at just 1440p!! Not a good sign....

    Personally I target high refresh rate 1080p gaming, so even this is not really overkill. I have a 165hz monitor and this card paired with one of the new Ryzen 5000's will enable me to get that in a lot of games, so this really is a perfect pairing at it's price point for those targeting that performance level. Even 1440p isn't hitting those super high refresh rates like 144+ on a 10900K so the 3070 isn't overkill for those targeting that level of performance either. Clearly if you want high refresh rate 1440p gaming, a 3080 is where you want to go as of this moment. Maybe the new AMD cards will also satisfy that need, but it's clear that the 3070 is priced very perfectly right now with such huge performance overall.

That in your mind they should buy a card based on other titles. Not demanding titles like AC, RDR2, GR Breakpoint, Horizon: Zero Dawn, or Metro Exodus. Or the new upcoming titles over the next two years.
    If I was playing at 1080p I would happily buy a 3080. It would play the more demanding titles better, and I could frame rate cap in less demanding titles. Hence saving power. It would be futureproofed for a good while, and I could run Nvidia DSR at higher resolutions.

      there's a 100 buck jump between the 3060ti, the 3070, the 3070ti and then i believe it's a 150 dollar jump from the 3070ti to the 3080 so that's where the performance-to-price ratio starts screwing up the consumer.

    Nice clickbait title. Enjoy my 1 view, 1 dislike, and me removing from watch history so no more are suggested.

    On a tangent question; how well does the Dark Rock 4 cool a 10900K (BEAST CPU) compared to a 240 or 280 AIO?
