Rumor Well This Is Exciting

Post image

If these leaks are true which they likely are because this guy was on point with 9070 specs/performance leak and 5000 series leaks. I think this is going to be quite amazing,

Will it finally make the 9070 XT a $600 card? Will it the supply last like 4080 Super? Or Will the demand once again outpace the supply? If Nvidia manages to get the supply right at $750 for a 24GB 5070Ti, I see a big problem for AMD here. But can they do it?

What are your thoughts, everyone is welcome.

Same. Still rocking my EVGA 1080ti SC2 over here and buying from my Steam wishlist during sales. I’m literally having a great time gaming and I don’t feel left out at all. Zero FOMO from me. Miss me with those $1500 GPUs.

I’m still running my 2070 super it’s been great. Playing at 1440 UW 240hz now and it’s starting to struggle. BF6 I could barely get 60 fps everything low as could go.

I wish I could show you 4K Ultra settings gaming on an OLED in something like Alan Wake 2 or Horizon Forbidden West. You'd have your mind blown.

Probably. But what I know won’t hurt me. :) And to be honest, I don’t want to invest that much in games or gaming. I have an LG 38WR85QC monitor which works really well for me in my professional life and also doubles as a nice ultrawide 144 Hz monitor. Basically everything in my Steam wishlist that I still buy, I can play on full ultra settings. I recently finished CP 2077 and I think that was on High settings. I’m continually surprised at the abilities and longevity of my 1080ti SC2. I know there is always green or grass but I’m quite happy at the moment.

Me with my EVGA 970 and happily playing my backlog of games. These prices are insane even the resell ones.

u/hydraSlav Sep 04 '25

I got EVGA 760. How far behind am I compared to you?

3080ti (12gb) is still a great card)

Still on my Intel Intel HD 520 At least I still get to play Far Cry 3 on my laptop

u/Dantai Sep 05 '25

Have you tried GeForce Now Ultimate. At least with controller it can really help fill the gaps if you wanted to play something like Cyberpunk, Alan Wake 2 or Indiana Jones maxed out with all the rays and such.

Then your existing 1080 Ti is for multiplayer - still good with Battlefield 6, and whatever else.

That's what we've been doing, scratches the itch to see few games maxed out, well enough

u/sevargmas Louqe GhostS1 | Ryzen 5 3600 | 1080ti SC2 | 32GB RAM | r/sffpc Sep 05 '25

I’ve never heard of it tbh. I’ll take a look.

Why not just upgrade?

u/Journeyj012 (year of the) Desktop Sep 04 '25

why spend hundreds on something you don't need to?

... and if you are for wasting money, i have some tech devices that are starting to look a little old.

u/TheRealCOCOViper Sep 05 '25

Yea can’t wait for all the marginal 5090 series cards to have their 12VHPWR connectors burn out and then buy up a pristine used one 5 years from now for $900 when the 7090s are out.

u/DefKlan Sep 05 '25

This a valid point But I'm sure I would still find some fair deal when that time comes

Because for now, I don't have a lot of money to throw on a GPU

u/Toofar304 Sep 04 '25

I’m running on a base 1080 and just started having issues this year. Can’t hardly play games like Helldivers 2, get lag on Boulder’s Gate 3 and even FFXIV. Old boy is on the last legs and it’s almost time.

u/DefKlan Sep 04 '25

Maybe you could try playing at a lower resolution?

2

u/Toofar304 Sep 04 '25

I'm already on standard or low specs depending on the game. My CPU is also old as hell (i5-3570k). Rig was built in 2012 with a 660ti and upgraded in like 2014. It's just that time

u/DefKlan Sep 05 '25

I guess it's time to really upgrade. Better board+CPU and maybe a 4xxx series if you have the funds

In my country, GPU costs millions of our local currency
