@vast bobcat put all relevant details for your build here

Alright, I'm looking for a PC for around 2500 euros here in Belgium (I'd like to use alternate.be, they have most stuff on there though so it's fine) for 1080 gaming, some VR gaming and maybe some video/photo editing.

#

I was sort of set on getting a 3070TI, but someone made me change my mind cause it would not last very long cause of the 8GB Vram, how it exactly works I don't really know since I'm new)

#

I'd like to build the pc myself if that isn't too hard for a newbie.

Are you going to be trying to game at higher resolutions down the line or is 1080p going to be what you stick to?

I would actually recommend you something like a 6700 XT then, 30 series cards aren’t really that viable for 1080p past the 3060 Ti

vast bobcat
#

Alright, my monitor is G-Sync which would be a little of a waste but that doesn't matter.

#

Never really looked at the AMD Cards, I don't know.

#

Honestly with the level of performance the 6700 XT will put out, you won’t even really need G-Sync

vast bobcat
#

Alright, someone told me the 6800 is a decent pick too.

waxen ingot
#

6800 is harder to get however

vast bobcat
#

And if I chose to go for NVIDIA what would I get?

waxen ingot
#

Don’t go past a 3060 Ti with NVIDIA

vast bobcat
#

and why?

waxen ingot
#

You won’t really see any benefits at 1080p due to how ampere’s architecture works, it’s designed for higher resolutions

vast bobcat
#

Alright, also not in video editing?

waxen ingot
#

Fuck this bot

#

Part 2 coming below this text

#

Here’s a list I made with editing and gaming in mind

vast bobcat
#

alright, im in a game of valorant rn, ill check in an hour or smth

#

thanks!

#

Should I be looking at the 40 series you think?

#

or will those be way overpriced in the beginning?

waxen ingot
#

Don’t bother looking at 40 series until a year after release

vast bobcat
#

and why is that if you care to explain

#

cause of scalpers?

waxen ingot
#

Pricing and they won’t release the whole product stack immediately

vast bobcat
#

alright

#

yeah I won't be waiting for a year :)

lmao wrong reply

vast bobcat
#

3090 TI just to play toons td kek

#

@waxen ingot Sorry for the ping but is there any reasoning for picking that ram specifically?

waxen ingot
#

no real reason other than it's cheap and meets the requirement of DDR4-3200 CL16-18-18 and is 2x8GB
