Thats a 3080, I don't want to go last generation...

[–] [email protected] 9 points 11 months ago (1 children)

But it's better than the 40 series

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Is the 3080 better than the 4080?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Well for a raw performance the 40 might be a tiny bit better, but the lesser vram is probably more of an issue when gaming. And the price is just crazy

I am considering getting this monster display to replace my current Phillips office monitor:

And I wonder if my 3070 could run it in games at an acceptable framerate...

While I am no expert I would assume that the 3070 should not have any issues on 4k.

However sth like starfield might have performance issues

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

It is slightly below 4k, 2k and 120hz, the actual resolution doesn't worry me that much, but the framerate does...

Anyway, I do feel a bit cheated by nVidia as my GPU only got 8GB memory and the 4070 has 12...

It will depend on whether the games you play support dlss and frame gen and if you'd use those features.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 11 months ago

It's also Nvidia and will bring pain and suffering trying to game on linux

Hey, you got a problem with my GPU?

(Other than it being from Nvidia)

[–] [email protected] 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

It doesn't have mainline drivers

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

I said other than it being nvidia

[–] [email protected] -5 points 11 months ago

I never mentioned your GPU...

Still last gen, and it does perform well, I have a 3070, upgraded a year ago from a 970
