#Need Help with deciding what gpu to get and if bottlenecking would happen.

Can someone help me I have a i7 9700k and a 1080sc 32gb Ram. I was wondering if I could upgrade to a 4060ti because its the best bang for my buck rn. Will it bottleneck?

#

I am also slightly new to pc building etc.

#

the 6600 xt is the bang for the buck or a 6750 xt might also be great

amber steppe
#

do you have any suggestions for Nividia cards? I rather stick with it.

slow wharf
#

why?

amber steppe
#

dont want to deal with drivers from what I heard

slow wharf
#

amd cards are tbh better then nvidia as you will see a performance increase over time and get to use fulid motion frams

slow wharf
#

i have had a amd card for a year now and have not had a singal gpu related issue

amber steppe
#

Ill keep it in mind. Do you know if a 4060ti would bottle neck a i7 9700k?

slow wharf
#

amd is just better

#

and its up to what game you play

#

a 6750 xt or 4060 ti will not bottle neck a i7 9700k in some games while other games like cs2 might get a massive performance increase with a better cpu witch some call a bottle neck

#

and a rx 6750 XT has 12GB of vram while the 4060 ti only has 8, most modern games need a minimum of 8GB to play at 1080p while you need 12GB to have a chance at 1440p

#

and games will just want more and more vram

#

and you can use amd fluid motion frams on all dx 11 or 12 games and its the same as nvidias dlls but you can actually use it in most games

amber steppe
#

Ill think about switching. Say if I got a 4060ti with 16gb for $450. and later on I switched my cpu for a better one. Would that be reasonable? I game at 1080p but for my 2nd monitor I have a 1440. I rather have frames than graphics

amber steppe
#

my budget for a gpu is $450

#

6800?

slow wharf
#

ye

amber steppe
#

would it be worth getting a refurbished RX 6800XT

#

feel like its risky

slow wharf
#

in what way?

#

i have bought over 20 used gpues and all of them came in the condition i was expecting

amber steppe
#

would you say this is worth it

slow wharf
#

ye it might be worth it, but just remember the video was testing in the best gaming cpu in the world so you will not see close to this preformance for your pc in most of the games but it might be nice to get a good gpu now and upgrade as you go

#

just make sure your psu can handel it

amber steppe
#

I have a 650psu

slow wharf
#

maby?

#

it might work

amber steppe
#

I just want a gpu thats strong that will last me a long time and i can upgrade around it

slow wharf
#

ye i think the 650 will manage to do it

#

at least amd and mad like to be together too

amber steppe
#

I need to start watching more tech videos lol

#

so much stuff

slow wharf
#

ye

#

from what pc part picker says max system power draw "is" 513W so the 650 is good

amber steppe
#

ok nice

#

I will keep doing research on everything you told me. I appreciate the help!

slow wharf
#

no worry's, and remember amd is just better

amber steppe
#

#ad.. lol

#

But ill actually think about the 6800xt.

slow wharf
#

good

yeah, true. My 3060Ti struggled with RT in competitive games like Fortnite. Minecraft RTX ran fine but I don't play Bedrock

slow wharf
#

i like to play with MAX MAX settings in fortnite on my 7900 xtx and i still get a good amount of fps 120+ normaly

#

and when i use rastor at epic settings i normally get 240-360+ fps

gritty fox
#

My 4070Ti can get like 90-100FPS with MAX MAX settings at 1080p without DLSS. My 3060Ti could get that same 90FPS, but only in the battle bus and inside buildings. In combat I regularly dropped below 60FPS. Now I can actually do combat with RT enabled

slow wharf
#

i do se my 7900 xtx do 160 inside building but outside it is closer to 120 but its also up to where i am on the map what time it is and all that but people just need to stop with the stigma around amd gpues

gritty fox
#

yeah. Also what setting do you usually use for antialiasing? I don't know what all the different ones mean. I know FXAA, I've seen that in pretty much all my other games

slow wharf
#

TAA

#

TAA is the hardest to run but looks the best and going to FXAA is like a 60-100+ more fps some times

#

but lower quality

gritty fox
#

60-100 extra FPS? Damn! (I mean you have the best of the best AMD cards lol)

slow wharf
#

it can give

#

not that it might give but if i want to i can also use amd fluid mothing frams in ALL DX 11 and DX 12 games

gritty fox
#

yeah true. I could also use DLSS frame generation but I don't know if I'd want the extra latency for twitch-shooters like Fortnite

slow wharf
#

the main issue for DLSS is that games need to be made to support it while ALL dx 11 and 12 games suport amds fluid motion frames

#

almost no matter what amd is still better then nvidia and you cant really argue that.
only thing right now is just something like blender that is made with nvidia to allow for better use of their gpues over amds
