Really looking to upgrade now? What are you looking to do?
J looking to run cod better tbh my fans get hella loud sometimes
I see. What's your budget?
id say around 500
US, can buy whenever My bday and christmas both in december so can be bought whenever now between dec 19
if there better deals in future i can wait
That's fine I guess.
hard to say what direction the market's going to be headed in though. Black friday deals are kicking off, and so far, it's not too bad.
fire
You could look at upgrading your RAM and GPU. It'll probably be the most influential in terms of fps. Upgrading your CPU to say a 5700x3D or something is also an option, but it would likely bring you over-budget, as well as not bringing your framerate up as much, compared to the GPU.
Awesome, any specific deals or gpus or ram that sticks out
You could be looking at upgrading to a 32GB kit of RAM (generally, just hit up the cheapest 3200/16 or 3600/18 kit) and the 6750xt, 6800, or 7700xt.
which nvidia cards?
Are you really looking to do stuff that benefits from NVIDIA?
You have the option of the 4060 and 4060ti (8 and 16GB) with the kit of RAM. Both options kinda suck, and the 4060ti 8 and 16GB won't have a big performance difference to justify the cost, unless you need every possible advantage in apps like UE5 game dev, matlab, blender, ML/AI, specialized productivity stuff that is the most optimised toward NVIDIA.
i can highly recommend going with a 16 GB card, since new gen consoles are workign with 16gb of (shared) vram, a lot of game studios are developing their games around 16 gb.
and in games like cyberpunk and starfield we already see amssive benefits from 12 and 16 gb cards.
with nvidia u will have to go way beyond budget for that
4060ti 16gb being basically the only option here, and as mentioned above, that card is really not that great
you can also just abandon the kit of RAM entirely and buy a new 4070, but like... it wouldn't be super great for your budget.
isnt the 4070 550 USD or sth?
and u can almost get a 7900 GRE at that point
