So im selling my rn 9070xt and will have about $1,300 after to spend I could buy a rtx 5080 or buy a cheaper card and wait for a 5080S that looks like its coming out Q4 2025 or Q1 2026 I would want to spend $150 to $200 on a replacement card what do you think

Current specs
Rx 9070xt
I7 14700k
32gb ddr4 3600mhz
1440p 240hz monitor

why are you selling?

#

yeah the 5080 is better but the 9070xt is in no way a bad gpu

fair enough, the 5080 is a good gpu but the 5070ti is also a good one for the price

I was going to buy a 5070ti but I couldn't stock was so bad so I bought a 9070xt because I had a a750 at 1440p

the 5080 is gonna be the best then

Idk if i should buy a 5080 or bid on a 5080 super with 50% more vram coming out Q4 2025

And game on a 2070S for a bit

True and I could always sell the 5080
