    Best GPU options for 3440x1440?

    With all the VRAM issues coming up in games, your best bet at $700 is a 6950XT for $700. Comes with 16GB of memory which with a lot of newer games it does need. If you can afford Nvidia, I would try to see if you can get a used 3090 RTX, or if you can spend an extra $100, get a 7900XT.

    The Last of Us Part I

    Yeah that’s where a ton of those bad reviews are from. People with 8gb or less video cards.

    NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Priced at $600

    After the 6gb was released. And the 12gb was aimed to crypto miners. Not gamers

    NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Priced at $600

    Yeah imo 12GB is low if you ask me. It should be 16GB at least for a 4070. 12GB should be what is on the 4060/4060ti.

    Should I just get a 4070Ti?

    70% of the negative reviews are from people who A. dont wait for the shaders to compile or B. run out of vram while trying to run in Ultra. Now DLSS is a mesh in the game no doubt about that though. But, there are plenty of people playing the game with no issues. Sounds like LOUP1 is the new...

    Should I just get a 4070Ti?

    As I tend to agree, but this is a 50+ game benchmark. I do not think any other websites even comes close to benchmarking that many games.

    Should I just get a 4070Ti?

    Interesting considering the 7900xtx is 1% slower at 1440p against the 4080 and 1% faster in 4k in a 50+ game benchmark. Looks like the infinity fabric isn't helping at all at 1440p against the 4080?

    https://twitter.com/HardwareUnboxed Who also run the website www.techspot.com Also: https://www.youtube.com/@Hardwareunboxed They are known for in depth reviews which are unbiased. One of the few sites left who do great reviews.

    Should I just get a 4070Ti?

    Heck if The Last of Us is any indication of the future of PC gaming. It seems 8GB might struggle with 1080p ultra quality settings. It isn't that the GPU isn't powerful enough, it just runs out of memory. I would not get a GPU under 16GB of memory right now imo.

    Should I just get a 4070Ti?

    Considering the 4080 and 4070ti aren't selling well.....Its a minority that is buying the newer cards. I hate to even say this, but right now the 6950XT, and 7900XT are much better buys (With the 7900XT at $800) over a 4070ti just because of VRAM alone. IMO the the 4070ti and 6950XT should be...

    After seeing the issues with VRAM on the Last of Us Part 1, and Diablo 4.....I think you made the right call!

    Funny, everyone said 8/10/12gb might be an issue. Seems like thats the case now.

    Also want to add that there are mounts in the game that eventually help with the running around part too. That is new to Diablo.

    I do watch LTT sometimes. But, with all the crap about tech and security they have showed numerous times. It is a bad look that they got hacked. Basically someone got past the youtube 2fa from some PC or device that was unsecured. Sounds like his own company dont follow proper security...

    Board partner cards of the GeForce RTX 4070, RTX 4060 Ti and RTX 4060 may not utilize 12VHPWR connector

    No idea, but I can tell you that the 6950XT at $699 is a pretty damn good deal ($664 currently). If a 4070 is released can't even beat the 6950XT and being $50 more....its a fail right off the bat. IMO the 7900XT isn't terribly priced now......MAYBE AMD learned to stop being greedy and...

    If the rumors are true of a $750 4070 and $650 4060ti, I don't see many gamers buying these in the first place lol. Lower da damn prices!

    Doesn't mean they won't try to the same bullshit. In today's climate with gaming, I can easily see Blizzard milking even more money from people.

    So far i think so. Doesn’t mean they won’t add in bullshit like p2w transactions etc, but in this build I’m impressed. I guess I set low expectations after Diablo immortal

    Yeah to me this is a merger of D2 and D3 style. I actually don't mind how dark and gritty it is. Thats what made Diablo 1 and 2 an instant classic for me. Glad its not cartoony

    I mean.....this is a closed beta. They are testing and we are supporting the testing. This is going to happen quite a bit. No reason to complain about issues during a closed beta.

    Well when you install this beta (Which is open next week) It lets you choose if you want to install the high resolution textures. So, if you are worried about system resources than just make sure not to install them.

    AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D CPU Review & Benchmarks: $700 Gaming Flagship

    Depends. It could also make people move over to AMD if a 7600x3d is fighting blows with a 13900k. Could give them quite a bit more market share and have people on the AMD ecosystem. That in itself might make it worth it in the long run. Of course I agree that I don’t think they ever will...

    Should I just get a 4070Ti?

    With this graph it makes the 4070ti look even worse since it matches the 6950xt, which can be found for $699.....And has 16GB of memory. https://shop-us-en.amd.com/amd-radeon-rx-6950-xt-graphics/

    Should I just get a 4070Ti?

    Since the 3090 cannot be found anymore for MSRP and is EOL, It is a good description. The 4070ti is an overpriced card that should be around $600-650, specially since its only a 12gb card.
