PCI-E 3.0 won't bottleneck the 3080 at all.

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.

I'm running 1440p right now too and think with the 3080 it be the perfect time to switch to a 4K monitor

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.

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.

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!!
