So I been thinkin.

Do I get a 200-250€ used 3060ti/3070 and wait for 5XXX series, or get 4XXX series even though it ain’t that grat?

    Nah, GPU is definitely the only bottleneck rn. We doin Ryzen 9 7900 with DDR5 64gb@6000MHz CL16 (not the best timing, but also not the worst). Runnin on ASRock B650 PG Lightning and primary NVMe storage.

    That said I don’t have VR gear yet, nor do I plan to buy any in the next 6 months. Might consider Index2 though once it comes out.

    But yeah not too convinced on 4XXX series yet myself. Could DLSS3 be sweet? Maybe, it’s not really implemented by anything yet. Starfield won’t even ship with it due to AMD exclusivity. BG3 might have it, and Remnant 2, but DLSS2 is plenty enough.

    For resolution my main’s 1440p@165Hz, but using it at 120Hz. Secondary’s an old 1080p@60Hz.

    So basically 3060ti is more than enough for now*.

      Nice setup! Plus side of the 3060ti is that you could auction it off in 6 months for near the same price you paid.

      Starfield may push me to upgrade my system yet again depending on how well that plays.

      Cl16 ?? That is the best timing if true. Never heard of ddr5 running anywhere close to that.
