RTX 2080 Super for 1080p gaming?

[joji]

So I'm currently rocking an i7 9700k with an asus rog strix 2070 super advanced and was wondering if it's alright to upgrade to a 2080 super for 1920x1080p 144hz gaming? Graphical settings will always be set on high. Is it too overkill or fine

Go for 2080 Super, like a 3 fanned EVGA model and then upgrade to a 1440p, 144hz IPS

I dont need 1440p and I dont like playing on that resolution. I've been a 1080p player ever since

RTX 2080SUPER few days before the annoucment and possibly even release of RTX 3080? Do you realize how crazy is that?

What's more crazy is that you lunatics are willing to spent your college money for that rtx 3000 when you can be practical and get the the ones that are offered now

Unless you playing at 240hz or higher a 2080 Super isn't going to do much of anything for you.

Best to just wait for RTX 3070/3080

Why not? Is 2080 super not gonna give me high frames? Am I not gonna get the performance that I want on 1080p with 2080 super? Tell me why not? I’m so intrigued why the 2080 super wont do much for me? Hahaha man this comments are funny

2080 Super isn't going to really help more at 1080p, no. It's low res for such a gpu as that.

Buying RTX 20xx now would be like buying into a stock while it's still at a generally high price. RTX 20xx will drop in price, or just go out of stock and stop being restocked due to no longer made, once RTX 30xx is ready. And you should know from the past releases how Nvidia works, usually their announcement will mean the 3080 would be ready shortly afterwards. But in a Founders Edition and for most likely a steep price, but not as steep as the 3080 varients that would come to follow from 3rd party brands. At least the models that offer better cooling, overclocking or stock factory OC out of the box, or cooler looking designs, etc.

I jumped on 2x gtx 680 when they were ready, fay 1 of sales by Newegg. I regret doing that and I learned my lesson.

What did I learn?

When you don't own or perhaps in need of an upgrade, but the next series is coming VERY soon, that "can" be a good time to wait. Also if let's say you own a 2070, but want say a 2080 or 2080 Ti; well before the new series actually gets here, now is the perfect time to sell your 2070 gpu while it still holds market value of whatever that is now. As it will only go down-hill moving forward. Then put that money towards an RTX 3070 or 3080 when it comes out, however might be wise to skip anything that may be a "1st batch run" and simply hold on until the 3rd party branded gpus come out, such as offerings from EVGA, ASUS, MSI, Gigabyte... and get more bang for buck.

If you have a 2070 now and simply couldn't sell it, ok then maybe just hold onto it though until RTX 3XXX gets here, simply because you probably already paid a high price months ago for that 2070 (compared to what they go for right now) while at the same time, spending a large amount again so quickly towards a 2080 Super, will only be a small bump up in what your PC can do gpu performance-wise. While an RTX 3070 or 3080 may end up costing right around the same as a 2080 Super, but with much much more performance and even better refined features. Like stronger Ray Tracing, DLSS, Cuda compilation, more able to run higher fps, even at 2160p (4K)... etc.

Please don't think that jumping from any 2070, to any 2080 is going to magically give a ton more fps at 1080p, cause it wont. The purpose for a 2080 Super is for better 1440p performance. The purpose for a 2080 Ti is better 2160p performance... but again with RTX 3xxx series so close, why waste money going from any 2070 to any 2080 right now... it doesn't make sense to do so.

There is only 10% difference in performance between 2070 super Vs 2080 super.

And, if you already own the 2070 Super and play at 1080p.
You will most likely hit your CPU limit in many games. So, No performance gain at all.

AMD announced now that they will not supprot x370 motherboards with ryzen 4000. Could they do the same and next graphics card from both amd nvidia and also intel work only on current motherboards in order to force evryone upgrade their motherboards or they will continue working on all motherboards like they already do.

It's totally impossible. It never happened. And never will.

οκ then i will only get 3080ti and keep rest of the system as it is now.

Me I would wait. It's not long and the 3080 will be out. All the rumours indicate its going to be A LOT more powerful.

Guys I’ve already got the 2080 super and I didn’t paid the full price of course only 10 percent because it was an exchange from my 2070 super. Unfortunately I’m still hearing some coil whine coming from my gpu and was wondering what is the problem this time. I’m thinking of exchanging it again for a better one

Well I gather that coil whine is just a random thing. You could trade it in and maybe you will get a better one, or you may end up with something worse. Your best bet maybe is to try a different case if it bothers you that much.

Probably best to wait for RTX 3000 series instead of dropping $700-800 on something that gets phased out later this year since it`s not exactly pressing issue.

yeah I better start selling my organs
