Don’t buy a 7800xt now the 9070 exists

#

Normally I’d say drop the x3d part and get a better gpu for the same price but given current ram crisis… keep the x3d

#

(I’m running a similar setup)

The RAM crisis is honestly brutal. 😭

Is the +17% worth about $200 added for the 9070? And do you mean like a 7600X? If I went with that, there'd be $200 difference over the 7800X3D. Otherwise, is it all looking decent? Thanks.

I'm so conflicted over whether to use those 200 from downgrading 7800X3D to 7600X, or just keep it now.

Im assuming thingd cuz im too lazy to do the extra stuff

#

If theyre mostly cpu intensive then stick with the x3d cpu and lower the gpu

Your assumption was on spot. Thanks, Sai.

Man that price for the GSkill ram is nuts. I paid like $100 last year for it. Can you not find something cheaper?

#

You could go to 16gb and save some money

Yeah it's insane. I would save $100 if I went 16GB. Not bad, but also, I feel like if I wanted to upgrade it to 32GB later on, it would result in another $100 no matter what. 🤔
