I'd upgrade purely because Ryzen 4000 is going to be amazing and run laps around the i7-4790K, which is like seven years old now.

does the 10gb vram of the 3080 bother anyone?
i'm sure a 'super' or ti edition will be release next year to slot in between the large 3080 - 3090 gap with more vram.

i guess even though the 6x has more bandwidth the extra 6gb more than makes up for it

GPU mining is getting popular again. Right now the 5700xt is the king of price/performance.

360hz 1080p monitor & 3080 rtx sounds like a god build right now for a gaming computer...
11th gen intel cpu's just released for mobile laptops,no word on desktops yet...but 20% performance gain on laptops...prob still be 100% okay with 9900ks if u already have one. https://www.intel.com/content/www/us...rocessors.html

my issue isnt price, it's that all the 24-27" 4k 120hz+ monitors have rgb/gaming style aesthetics - that doesn't work for me.
ideally, i hoped, Dell would have a 4k oled (or even 4k 120hz ips) monitor in their ultrasharp series by now.
i'm itching to build a new system, but need a pair of monitors first.
how far away is micro-led lol?

I'll be surprised if you can unload that 2070 for a good price... Video cards have been insanely overpriced the last 2 gens, and now they're normal priced. A lot of people got caught with overpriced cards now

AMD BigNavi just got leaked
pretty much same performance with RTX 3080
But only cost $549!!!!!
Somehow this info tells me, Jensen knows inside stories about AMD Navi performance and cost.
Thats why Jensen puts 3000 series tag price so low!!
