BEST GPUs to buy in October 2024!!!

[@danielowentech]

I recommend waiting to buy a GPU, but if you're set on buying in October, here's my top 5 choices: Best GPU around $200 RX 6600: amzn.to/3v5tNja Best GPU around $300 RX 7700XT: amzn.to/3BYcWSx Best GPU around $400 RX 6800 XT amzn.to/3vqbhSS Best GPU around $600 RTX 4070 Super: amzn.to/3xWhEyG Best $800 GPU: RTX 4070 Ti Super: amzn.to/3T0Kfuz Past this point is diminishing returns on "value" and next gen could be out soon, so I don't really recommend.

The 4070 Ti Super doesn't just have more VRAM than the 4070 Super, it also comes with double AV1 encoders as opposed to a single one, it has a wider Bus, and the same Processor as the 4080 (AD103). It's basically a slightly slower 4080, rather than a faster 4070. So yeah, I'd say that it's definitely worth its premium.

[@stangamer1151]

But in terms of performance it is right between 4070 S and 4080. So I would call it "slightly" slow. Otherwise you should also describe it as "slightly" faster than 4070 S.

​@@stangamer1151 But performance alone doesn't paint the entire picture as to why it's priced like that. The 4070 Ti Super comes with advantages, other than its performance, that justify its premium over the 4070 Super. Meanwhile, the 4080 offers roughly the same jump in performance for roughly the same jump in price, except it doesn't come with more VRAM, a wider Bus, a better Processor or better encoding than the 4070 Ti Super, so its premium isn't justified.

I know people don't like to include freebies into the price, but SM2 was the game I was most excited to play, so I'm comfortable in saying that brought the real cost of the card under $400 for me.

[@telliusfan]

Another potential option like others have said, the 7900 XT is pretty good value right now at $630 USD. If you don't mind the lack of NVIDIA features this card blows every modern game at 1440p max settings without the need to upscale. The VRAM is a tad overrated but the 20(!) buffer over the 4070 super's 12 is huge especially when you start getting into native 4K (or specific intense game mods), which the 7900XT can do pretty well with high settings. If you don't care about RT, it's a decent compromise for about 30 bucks more, and personally if you ask me Raytracing isn't really a viable, comfy option until that 4070 TI S, 4080 S range. If you ever regret the lack of NVIDIA features you can always just return it, especially since some online stores like Newegg are doing a holiday return window thing where you have no questions asked returns all the way until Jan 2025. This is great for people who want to do some strenuous gaming right now while being able to have that cushion for that extra money going into the next gen cards.

Even if next-gen hardware won't be great, current-gen will have much more attractive pricing in the used market. But now definitely isn't a bad time to upgrade either. It really depends on whether the 1660 Super is holding you back from playing the games that you want to play or not.

Upcoming used market is looking fantastic. Finally, a lot of high performing GPUs coming under the $500 range and below. When the new 50xx lineup cards are released, it'll crash the mid to high AMD GPU market. Both new and old cards. The used market sets the value levels of products. If something is valued right, the used price is semi close to market price. Used 7900 xtx/xt has to battle against everything from 4070 to 4080S. It's going to be a buyer's market with used cards.

[@Monsux]

​@Deedee48-jg9om Nothing to do with my point on the new or used market change when the new 50xx line comes out. AMD is in a tough spot. There's no new high-end cards coming, and they have to sell current models at lower price. If they don't drop the price soon, people won't buy their cards. If someone does buy their higher tier options, the value loss is massive in the used market. For example, used market value for 7900xtx should be lower than 4080(S). If there are a lot of used 4080 models available, it drops every GPU model prices below that. There will be a lot of used RTX 40xx cards in the near future. Soon will be a great time to buy mid to semi high tier GPUs.

[@Monsux]

@Deedee48-jg9om I was talking about future used prices after the release. Don't care about some random personal used price now in a limited market area, but GPU market as a whole. In the US and Europe, AMD high-tier is priced almost the same tier as similar performance Nvidia GPUs. They will have to drop from around $1000 / 1000€ price to close to 700-800 range. 4080 used models will drop to that range pretty fast, so the whole high-tier market is full of much cheaper high-end cards.

I can absolutely vouch for the RX 6600. I got it as placeholder GPU last year and ended up using it up until now, partly, because nothing this gen really felt like it was worth the spending the big bucks on yet, but also because it just pretty much ran everything I needed it to well enough in raster. It's punching well above its weight for the price. Oh, and it's ridiculously power efficient pulling only anywhere between 100-115W at the games I played. If I do end up upgrading next year, I can see myself still keeping this card in a secondary build.

The RX 6800 (non XT) still offers the best price/performance ratio in my opinion for under $ 400 with 16 GB. I personally have a RX 7800 XT because the RX 6800 was only available as an XFX custom design in my region and I couldn't get the graphics card into my case. Unfortunately, the RX 6800 XT is no longer available here at all in Europe for a resonable price.

[@Montusama]

Last week, I bought an XFX Radeon 6750 XT 12GB for 300 at Best Buy. I thought about waiting but my gaming is shifting towards PC gaming. The 6750 XT, I considered to be the most powerful card that my 650 W PSU can support outside of the high price of a 4070. I'll still use my gaming laptop with a 4070 65W but that will probably be for when DLSS is a better use case (looking at you Cyberpunk 2077) or I just want to use HDR (OLED screen).

You recommended the 7700 XT over the 4060 Ti because AMD is actually 22% better in performance for the $. Because even if we take into account DLSS and better RT the 7700 XT is still a better buy. But then you didn't even mention the 7900 XT even though it is actually 26% better in performance for the $ than the 4070 Ti Super. I find it strange. The 7900 XT is only $639 now. Which is $140 less than the 4070 Ti Super. And the card was even $615 a few days ago. That's a pretty noticeable 31% difference. And we can expect such discounts again around Black Friday. Will Nvidia also drop $200? I highly doubt that. And will the 5070 be cheap and powerful enough to justify waiting another 4 months? I doubt that either. The 7900 XT is 40% faster and has 67% more VRAM than the 4070. But MSRP of the 4070 is $600. If the 5070 is also $600 at launch and only has 12GB again, the 7900 XT 20GB at around $600 is still likely to be faster and a better buy than Nvidia. But you won't have to wait another 4 months to find out.

[@Thunderhawk51]

Yeah, I'm kinda disappointed he didn't even mention it as an option. It's a 20GB and 320 bit bus card. I'm probably going to get it regardless. I can always sell it later or give it to my brother if I get a new one. But I think it will serve me well for many years.

​@@Zer0Hour17 He only said that because he thought there was no other option cheaper than $800. But that's just not true. The 7900 XT is around that $600 mark, but it's as fast as the 4070 Ti Super for $780.

[@Zer0Hour17]

@@Zer0Hour17 Again, the 7900 XT regularly sells for around $600. That's a 31% better price/performance ratio than the 4070 Ti Super.

[@dragonman910]

​@Radek494 Performance wise, I wasn't looking for an upgrade. I wanted something that performed close to the 3070 at a reasonable price ($350 on sale at the time) to compare upscaling differences. Using upscaling on both cards had the same performance uplift, but FSR 3 does not look quite as good as DLSS 2. It holds its own without using raytracing. As for the 12gb of memory, it does help. I mostly play 1440p medium/high and 8.5-9gb of usage is around the average I experience on these settings.

The only thing that worries me is if it can eventually use FSR 4 but at this point so few games support the latest and greatest features that I wouldn't be able to use anyway. And if 8800 XT comes with a 16GB and 256 bit bus then I don't know if it's worth it. And rumors suggest there is no 8900 XT or XTX. And even if something like that comes later and RDNA 4 or any future cards is miles better than 7900 XT, I'll just buy another card then and give the 7900 XT to my brother or sell it if he doesn't want it, lol.

During prime day I found a RX 7900 XT on a major sale for about $830 CAD, but until then I was considering a RTX 4070 Super, the lowest of which was $800 CAD (about $600 vs $580 in USD). Since the prices were so close I went with the more powerful 7900 XT, but do you think the Nvidia features on the 4070 super would have been worth the raw performance cut at effectively the same price?

[@Fahad-21]

If price to performance is a major factor and you are not turning on RT/ FG, then it's better that you went with the 7900xt, especially cause you get that 20gb Vram vs 12 gb(I heard a lot of people get near their 12gb vram and can't max out their performance). At similar pricing, 7900xt is even more powerful than 4070ti super. It all depends on what you value more. I would say if you had the option between 4070 S, 4070 ti S, and 7900xt, if money is a concern, I would go with 7900xt, if money isn't much of a concern I would go with 4070ti S (also maybe be on sale on holiday season/black friday) or better yet wait for 50 series release.

[@kenjikodai]

Basically the big reason everyone goes NVIDIA vs AMD at the high end is just "RT or not" along with lower temps and tdp if it matters to you. So you did fine unless you're trying to go for heavy RT which in my opinion heavy RT is only even worth turning on for 4080 and above. Sure 4070 ti super can handle it but it won't be as smooth. 7900xt is a great performer even in lighter RT, just don't expect Cyberpunk Overdrive Path tracing on it. I'm also plenty interested in AFMF and their newer upscaler since they finally decided "heck let's just go AI"

I really hate the GPU market right now. It is absolute dogshit for consumers.

[@jimmyt2862]

My exact thoughts

[@Vorexia]

1) No. Best you can hope for is probably a 5070 18GB for $649-699. TSMC pricing isn't helping us out either. 2) Great performance for 1440p, at 4K it'll depend on the developer and your frame rate targets. FSR 4 could be a significant improvement over 3.1, if you're okay with upscaling. 3) If you're willing to buy used, pricing will be even better by that point. If you want to stick to retail, yes, because current-gen stocks will be dry by then.

[@JerrySpringfield1]

@@Vorexia $700 for an 18gb 5070 sounds generous from Nvidia, if that is the case, will it even be available is the real question. I hope they do better this gen, but I find it doubtful. I'm currently looking at a 4070ti super/7900xt/xtx. If they keep dropping prices, I may have to pull the trigger.

[@Vorexia]

@@JerrySpringfield1 Nothing theoretically stops it from being $749, yeah. Nvidia is no alien to having people pay an extra $100 for more VRAM, as seen with the 4060 Ti. Considering your selection of GPUs, I'd recommend waiting until RDNA 4 comes out in January, 2025. Leaks aren't to be trusted, but IF they are true, leakers have believed for quite some months now that the 8800 XT will be slightly faster than a 7900 XT at raster and on the same level than a 4070 Ti Super at RT. All for around $500. Again, to be taken with a heavy grain of salt, but if that's remotely true it could save you a hefty buck. But again, that would invoke the risk of the supply of your selected GPUs being in limited supply.

[@killkiss_son]

5070 is rumored to be 12Gb again... When the 4070 super is already bottlenecked by its VRAM 😂 If the 8800 XT is really as powerful as a 7900 XTX it will be at least 600$, so basically the only good GPU to buy rn is a 7800 XT at like 450$

If the price of the 5080 is comparable to the 4090 next year, I’ll definitely trade in my 4080s and get a 4090. If NVIDIA releases two 5080 variants-one being a 16GB and the other a 24GB-and they’re cheaper than the 4090, I’d consider it based on the price and the new tech/AI features that would be included in the new card. Regardless, with 16GB of VRAM and being a 4K/RT gamer, I upgrade every 2-3 years anyway, and I always get a good resale value and put it towards the new card. It has been a solid upgrade plan for me. My primary decision to upgrade depends VRAM, and new features, especially for high-resolution and ray tracing gaming. I never really complained about the prices I paid $749 for my 1080ti, $1.2k for my 2080ti, so of course I’d pay $1k for the 4080s. I only skipped the 3080ti because of the outrages scalping prices . But if the 16GB of VRAM proves to be pathetic the next two years, I’ll sell it at a competitive price, cut my losses and enjoy a new card. If the 5080 series offers good performance at a competitive price, it could be an attractive option, especially with advancements in AI and other technologies. Given my upgrade cycle, trading in my cards for new models is a decent strategy to maximize value since I like to keep up with the tech. I’ll keep an eye on the benchmarks and reviews once the new cards are released to make the best decision! I’m a married gamer, who married a gamer and we have no kids. And both work, we can easily afford to enjoy the PC experience. Plus my wife never knows what to get me for gifts so she always gets me a GPU or CPU. She’s amazing :)

I do not totally agree. With the "leaked" prices of the 50 series, the price per fps is going to be higher for the 50 series. And with the stock of the 4080 Super going down so fast (90% of retailers here in my country, has sold out their stock of the better versions of the 4080 Super), I would say now is the time to buy a 40 series card, as it has a better price per fps than the 50 series. At least as of release. Six month down the line, this might be different though. So we are talking about a time frame of summer next year maybe, before the 50 series could potentially be worth it. But then we go into the same circle of, should we wait or buy. Then we are eying the 50 series SUPER in the near future. And so continues the never ending circle. Now is absolutely the time to buy the 40 series. If you can wait for offers in November, then be careful, as most of the better versions will be sold out before that. I am sure there will be some nice deals on PNY, Zotac etc. If you are fine with those.

I have been doing a lot of research, watched tons of videos and originally I was aiming for a 4070Ti Super but the RX7800XT or RX6800XT is really competitive from everything I’ve read. Great performance for the price in my opinion.

[@Tantemify]

just wait for the new 50 series and the RdNA 4 . stay strong brothers

[@namelessrogue2427]

Was gonna do that but my 1660 decided to die on me 😢😢

[@defnotatroll]

for high end yes, for budget cards its better to buy now while the discounts exist, new cards will not launch with discount pricing

[@Username-e5l]

As if we would be able to get it after its release. We would have to wait for months because of those scalpers and high pricing

[@thelazyworkersandwich4169]

For what? So we can all be disappointed together?

[@CABaaL1337]

So what you're saying my 1080Ti needs to endure a couple of more months? Can do, maybe more.

Last year I bought my rx6800. I had more driver issues with nvidia than with amd.

[@Razzbow]

I had a 5700XT when this driver thing first kicked off and I am confident it is a myth created inside the nvidia marketing department. It was way nicer than my 1060.

[@MrAustanian]

It was real. Going from my 970 to a rx590 was a big drop in driver quality when I got a 3070 I didn't notice a difference. When I got my 6900xt the only issue I have is a shut down/start up issue post windows updates where it needs a hard reset.

[@fetus2280]

@@Razzbow The Driver thing was Real.. bout 20 yrs ago though. Thats no longer a thing, its typically some User error that is the problem.

[@neshugg9486]

What was your driver issue? I had both nvidia and amd cards. Never had an issue with drivers. Currently running a RT6900XT and the only problem i have is that when pc goes idle mode and shuts down the monitor, it doesnt remember the windows placement in my second monitor. It is weird because sometimes that doesn't happen.

[@triniman1219]

Thanks wanted to get a 4070tu super this helped a lot, love your videos

[@JahonCross]

I have it, but honestly, I would have gone for the 7900xt instead.

[@awhs5435]

the discounts in canada are a joke lmao, go look at memory express during black friday, these assholes mark it down literally $5. Such a joke. I ain't buying shit if it's only $5 off.

[@Tyler-on5se]

use amazon price tracker in comparison to websites like newegg canada/ best buy/ canada electronic and you will see almost all of their sales are fake and its just a slow but steady depreciation in the different componants. it lets me see what is actually on sale/ vs the scam sales they get people with

[@Guenner8685]

Or you could just do it like I did and buy a 7900XT for 650$ (tax included) and have 20GB of VRAM and about 200FPS in Warzone (without FSR, or about 400FPS with FSR native on 1440p) Sure you don't have that much of Ray Tracing Performance and no DLSS 3.5. But the FSR 3 is pretty good and Raytracing is overhyped for me. Just saying. If you want Raytracing go with Nvidia. Also in the 520 area you have the 7900 GRE. Big Bang for the Buck.

[@Unc0nquered]

If you are a gamer, buy a video card now! We have no clue on true stock numbers, possibility of Nvidia pushing the release back again past Q1 2025 or even scalped by bots! Life is too short to keep debating on if you should or shouldn’t but a video card. If you have the money now, buy it! Game on!

[@laszlodajka5946]

Exactly. Remeber 20 years ago when i got my first dig i was just happy i could game on it

[@damianabregba7476]

If you are a gamer and you find performance good enough then don't. Vote with your wallet. Plenty of interesting old games to try. Rat racing all the time makes you miss those. This is not a race and just enjoy your hobby

[@MrAnimescrazy]

Exactly.

[@MrAnimescrazy]

​@damianabregba7476 well duh people will play old and new games.

[@nick1635]

This is bad advise. Right now is the absolute worst time to buy. Black friday/holiday/stock clearance deals are right around the corner and the AMD and Nvidia new cards will be launched in January. Even if you can't get one of the rtx 5000 series cards they will push the price of the current cards lower and you will get more for your money in just a few weeks.

[@kapecitis]

Ordered rtx 4070 ti super ❤❤❤

[@BrophyMichael]

12:00 The 7900 GRE is decent compared to the 6800XT - it's 15% more performance yes.. for only 13% more of the price! So it scales VERY well for spending more money going UP the product stack AND its a newer architecture so it runs cooler and quieter and will get supported longer with better potential technologies and optimizations in the future. Personally though I'd recomend to keep checking on the price of the SAPPHIRE 7800XT - for some reason it keeps going on sale on Amazon dipping below 400!! But then it jumps right up again after a day - so watch out and grab it if you can because that's a great deal!

[@Salfordshire]

Great video as always, thank you, please consider using time stamps in future.

[@gingerbread6967]

Exactly, Nvidia is about to rule the top of the world, AMD can compete for 2nd place.

[@Thunderhawk51]

It may rule the world but it won't rule my wallet! 😂
