Still rocking my 1070ti. I mostly play overwatch 2 and Minecraft so it works ok for me now. Also I'm broke and can't afford the upgrade.
I had a 1070ti since 2018 and it has run everything I have purchased just fine.
I thought about checking out this ray tracing stuff the kids are into, but is there a card under $300 that anyone recommends? It also would need to be mini itx as I have a tiny living room gaming PC.
Sorry but I'm not sure you're going to get any good ray tracing experience for less than $300.
AMD probably has the best general use GPU in that price range.
Intel probably has the best (with a big asterisk due to driver and directx issues) gaming GPU in that price range.
It's just hard to recommend buying a GPU right now imo.
Figured, I am happy with what I got 🙂
1080 here. I'm really happy with the decision I made years back. Some games are terribly not optimized, but that won't make me cash out for a new piece of hardware.
And anything that's actually worth upgrading from my GPU is going to be even bigger and block the front panel pins on my new motherboard I was gifted last year. Yep.
Some AMD stuff is kind of cheap rn. You can get the 6700XT For around 340 USD. And it's good performance wise I think. Granted you are on something where you don't need it imo. I was on something a lot less powerful which is why I made the plunge.
