Talking about 1440p and the 3080 in the same sentence proves my point, that's why you mad, you probably paid 1200 for your 3080, or more, if you payed 700 you would have nothing to be upset about it, at the 700 MSRP the 3080 was the sweet spot, even 840 for an AIB it was a great deal and this
now it isn't, it's not worth over 1000 dollars

113 fps and 173 fps at 1440p is not noticeable difference when you are playing, you wouldn't even notice unless MSI afterburner was turned on

the 3060ti is basically a 2080ti, you can get the EVGA version for 500 they didn't raise their prices like ASUS and MSI, that's a 2080ti for 500 dollars lmao, you can't be serious

I brought 3080 3 times and sold them because the price kept getting ridiculous and couldn't resist, I can deal with the slight performance hit and wait for the 40 series, nothing really big is even coming out this year anyway that you can't play on anyone of those 30 series card with good performance

I notice.. I paid $729 for a evga 3080 at launch.. I paid $500 for nvidia 3070 at launch. Stop with these "you probably" when i have the receipts :mjlol:

Then what are you crying about, I clearly said at 700 it was worth, the msrp is not worth it, the 3080 is not 800 dollars better than the 3060 performance wise its not a good buy, nobody is talking about launch, at launch there was only a 3080 and nothing else to compare it, even it was 1400 it would've been a better buy than the 2080ti for 1200, being at 700 was a steal at the time, now the entire line is out, that's not the case, especially since the prices have gone up considerably that's all I was saying, if you someone doesn't have a 3080 now there's no point of buying you can get back with the cheaper cards easily until the 40 series comes out, plus they stopped making 3080s, the 3080 super will replace it january

Stfu..

2 years ago oxtails were $13 now it's $21.. The price of everything went up since covid hit.. Almost everything having supply issues you can't find a ps5 or xbox for a year and they're selling a $400 machine for $900... Once you understand what's going on the 3080 is still a good price.. You will not be able to buy a 4000 series card until late 2023 because it's gonna be sold out

Go cry somewhere else, you acting like a bytch for no reason, that has nothing to do with I'm saying

Even at scalped prices the 3080 is not a deal anymore compared to the rest of the cars, you are better off getting 3080ti because the scalped 3080 are the same price or more

Even at msrp the 3080 TI is still a better deal because you are getting a 3090 with less Vram

The raised the MSRP for all the 3080s besides the founder's edition it's not worth the price anymore

the 3080 super comes out in a mouth

you will be able to buy the 4000 series cards because they scalped prices are just gonna be an msrp its not gonna be any room for the scalpers to mark it up

they can't even sell the AIB versions of the 3080 TI because the price is already too high

get off my dikk and go cry about something else, you gotta make up narratives and agrue with yourself

shut up you faq.. The 3080 is the only deal. The price of everything is up but you're too stupid to know that..

You must paid 1400 for your 3080 to be this upset

The halted production of the 3080 last month they not making them anymore, you don't know what you're talking about, they stopped 3080 production because they have streaming service for 3080 and their using the rest those GPUs for that

there is no more 3080 its over, it's being replaced in January and will be obsolete when 40 series drops

that's why if didn't buy it at launch, there's no need to buy one now

i'll occasionally look around at 3070's and the prices are just silly.
i hope my 1070 TI SC Black keeps doing it's thing for at least another couple of years.

the 4000 series looks astonishing but that power draw though...
i think i have a 750 watt PSU and that should be enough but that's way down the line for me.

The improvements that have been made since the Ryzen 5 CPUs meant that the Ryzen 7 series had a pretty good run of holding the top spot in computer processing units. Until AMD released their Ryzen 3000 CPUs, that is.

Intel has also been creeping up the rankings with their Core i7 CPUs, a series that delivers decent multitasking and improved gaming performance. They might not be quite as powerful as the absolute monster CPUs found in the i9 family, but at a more affordable price, they still have a lot to offer the enthusiastic gamer.

As the more expensive choice of the two families we looked at, you’d expect the Core i7 to thrash the Ryzen 7 series in every round. As you can see, this is not the case. These two families are pretty evenly matched, but the AMD Ryzen 7 series of CPUs takes the advantage with a higher thread count, increased cache memory, and improved multitasking.

For the more serious gamers, if you want a CPU that offers an additional step up in speed and performance, you’d be looking at purchasing one of the models from the Ryzen 9 series which costs more than the entry-level prices of the Ryzen 7 series.

With all that being said, it really does depend on what you’re looking to get out of your CPU, and you can ultimately find a great CPU for your gaming PC in either collection.

AMD Ryzen 7 Vs i7
