Lame, But Cheaper: NVIDIA RTX 4080 Super Review, Benchmark Comparison, & Value Discussion by Gamers Nexus
tbh I don't know what I want to do do for my GPU upgrade (from a 2080Ti)
looking at the pricing for the NVIDIA RTX 4080 Super, its comparable to the AMD RX 7900 XTX
I'm rewatching GN's review of the 7900 XTX but right now the big differentiator is FSR vs DLSS, I don't particularly care about raytracing at the moment
I'm leaning towards the 7900 XTX, will think about it
not in a rush
I might be heading to Canada Computers in a couple hours to pick up a new GPU 👀

this is my current build, lol I put this in the notes and I completely forgot about it:
"The GPU is another part I brought over from the previous build. I may upgrade the GPU at some point in the future, I am just waiting for details on AMD's RDNA3 GPUs before I make a decision."
*me staring at the 2080Ti*
time to retire buddy
( I think I'll just give that GPU away to my brother if he wants it, if not somebody local )
looks like the 7900XTX is gonna require 3 PCIe power connectors instead of two
guess its not just gonna be a quick swap eh, gonna have to run a cable from the PSU which means I need to take the top cover of the case off
ah well, I'm gonna be replacing the fans on the AIO as well so gonna get that done while I'm at it as well
On my way to Canada Computers👀
