And in the end you’re left with a part that you somehow never replace.

    On 1080p thats a decent combo.
    If you wrote a new i7 or a x3d cpu that wouldn’t fit

  2. Asterhea

    I’m in the opposite situation, lol. I have a 3060 ti with an 8700k and 64 gb ddr4 on a z370 mb

  3. ruintheenjoyment

    I used an HD 6970 with my Ryzen 2700X for a while

  4. I have this setup but with a 3080.

    It’ll keep going for a while. The 40xx series just doesn’t seem to be worth the insane prices so I’m saving now for the 5090. Hopefully that will be enough to get full ray traced 4k 120. That’s all I ask lol.

    32 GB 3200 mzh , 5800x and a 2080 TI here, feels pretty balance to me, I’ll probably Upgrade everything to AM5 in 2 years

  6. Supremoberzoeiro

    I used to have a 1650 super with an I3-3220 and 6gb of ram

  7. NeaZerros

    I have a 7900, 64GB of DDR5… and a RTX 2060 Super.
    (Yes it’s mainly a workstation before a gaming PC)

    Ouch. Waiting for my 1660S to be repaired.

  9. Still waiting to upgrade my GPU so that I might be able to swap from 1080p to 1440p one day but I might need to stay waiting since the prices don’t improve in the EU.

    Upgrading from 3060 ti doesn’t even matter right now. You can run basically every game with good optimalization. My only limitation is ram and CPU to run for example Cyberpunk on ultra details with ultra ray tracing smoothly. I can run it like that but with drops in cities sometimes.

    And no I can’t run Cities Skylines 2 with more than 20fps… Bobody can 🤣

    32gb ddr4 is optimal for mid class it doesn’t fit with this meme

  12. Dr_Axton

    I have a 2070, and every time I want to replace it I remind myself that my pc is usually busy with going through work computations, so I went with a steam deck instead

    fast gpu, slow cpu = cpu bottleneck

    fast cpu, slow gpu = wallet bottleneck (as in, there is no issue except wasted money)

    That is literally the specs for one of my rigs. It does excellent at 1080 and holds its own at 1440.

  15. BaBoomShow

    I had a 5900x and 5700 XT combo. Just got a 7900 XTX this week

  16. juustoplay

    Whats good amd cpu to combo with 3060 ti?

  17. mikemac1997

    Considering that you can’t run a lot of new games at over 2k 75fps (my monitor specs) with any graphics cards these days. I’m keeping my 2060 until there’s a new card (or better optimisation) because it’s not worth it.

    If they want to market the 40 series at 1080p/1440p cards, then I’ll keep my 20 series 1080p/1440p card.

    My next upgrade will be one to play at 4k 100+ fps, and until there’s a cheap, reliable way to do that, I’m good.

    RX 5700XT gang with that CPU combo.

    That is the biggest ass card I have ever owned and currently own.

  19. I currently have a 7800x3d and 64GB of DDR5-6000 with a 3060.

  20. Im6youre9

    I love my 3060ti it gets 60 fps in starfield on high setting with 4k. 40 series folks hate to hear it but it’s true.

    I used a first generation Core i7 for 14 years and updated the gpu a couple of times.

    My trusty rig was Core i7 920 (@ 3,4 Ghz), 24 GB DDR 3 (@1600Mhz) and Geforce 1660 Ti.

    Finally upgraded this year to Ryzen 7800x3D, 32 GB DDR5 (@6000 MHz) and Geforce 4080.

    Went also from windows 7 straight to windows 11. Steam dropping its support for win 7 was my primary reason for upgrading…

    Recently helped a friend do this.

    R5 1600AF -> R5 5600

    GTX 1650 Super -> 6950XT

    Kept his 16GB ddr4, his SSD, his chassis, and everything else.

    Bro I got a 5800 x3d with a Rx 5700xt😭
