Right? I bought a 1070 a few weeks after launch last year for $360 and they cost more now. Also I'm mining with it for the lulz. I'll sell it a few weeks before the next gen cards drop for basically the same price, then upgrade. Basically will have lost no money and had a 1070 for 1.5 years.

[@Arlyon9999]

[@halsaufschneider1446]

A bad year to buy new hardware in general. AMD mini_ITX mainboards are still a rarity. GPUs are overpriced, RAM is dead on overpriced, gaming peripherals are also overpriced. No matter what you look at, 1 1/2 year ago, many of the stuff mentioned was 50% cheaper. Today its older, but much pricier. Toshiba even tried to save money on the RAM inside their SSD, completely ruin the performance, locking the system for minutes, before you can continue. Yet the prices for these SSDs are still the same. At the expense of the consumer, and the product quality itself, they saved money. But does the price go down? NO!

Jahbari Akua what game are u playing right now? Im looking for max fps with lowest setting for 240hz monitor (esports configuration) and im planning to buy 1080ti. Is it too much or 1070 is already enough?

[@ericchen5744]

Hippiezpunk if you are playing esports titles like csgo, then you only need a 1070-1070ti to reach 300+FPS on the lowest setting. If you are not play shooter, then that heavily depends on the game, but then why the high frame rate in that case? Having said that, if you the budget, go for a 1080ti, it’ll go a long way.

[@thingsiplay]

Try out GTX 1070

[@vanoli89]

Doing some quick math, 1440p144 is 6.7% more pixels per second than 4K60, so 1080ti recommended. 1080p144 is 35% more pixels per second than 1440p60, so you'd be looking at a Vega 56 / 1070 level card. Obviously these calcs only work for linear gains, but probably a decent estimation.

7:25 It's not called Shadowplay anymore, they renamed it. Also, AMD has their own version of Nvidia Share, which I've seen is just as good. Edit: Apparently Nvidia interchange the names Shadowplay and Share depending on what side of the bed they woke up on.

[@sausje]

Still called Shadowplay according to their product page. www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/geforce-experience/shadowplay/ Don't forget, Shadowplay is a collection name that includes highlights and instant replay.

[@chinsteig]

and what a pain in the a** it is to get "Nvidia share" setup. Really Nvidia, I need to sign up and login just to record gameplay? When I want to stream you should ask then.

Don't listen to this video lol, he gets paid in free tech by Nvidia to sponsor their products. He didn't bring up Freesync, AMD's better driver UI, their shadowplay equivalent (all GPUs have supported h.264 encoding for several years now), and blatantly ignored Vega 56 even when it sat even in FPS/Dollar with the 1080 at 1440p. Don't fool yourself into ending up in an ecosystem with a monitor that costs $200 more than it should for Gsync, which is to the human eye nearly identical to freesync just because you accepted an advertisement as fact. Just buy any card in the rough price range you are looking at when on a good sale. Keep an eye on slickdeals and reddit's /r/buildapcsales.

[@itToxic]

1080p cards around $200 1440p cards around $250 4K cards $750 Why such a big leap?

4K is still RELATIVELY new so there isnt much that can run games at 4K very well for cheap because tech is still evolving yano

[@AWSimDrifter]

I bought my first ever serious gaming PC(it's a laptop don't kill me) over the summer after being a console player for my entire life. It was Linus' recommendation of the Dell inspiron gaming 2017 that sold me. I bought a higher end model for a little over a thousand bucks. I haven't regretted my purchase since. It's the exact thing I needed since I move around a lot and like to game. All with only a 1050ti under the hood. It hasn't let me down yet. And I think I'll be able to run plenty of new games on it for quite awhile.

[@cizx8050]

for all my friends builds I personally recommend a 1050ti for 1080p as its cheaper works amazingly and the 4gb of vram provide better "future proofing" in my opinion

[@nickhippen2850]

Cizx I think the 1050ti is a little weak for today’s standards.

[@xPandamon]

Nick Hippen depends on your usage. Most games will run at 1080p60fps on high settings and if you go a little lower with your settings every game available should run just fine.

Asdrubale Girolamo but what’s the CPU?

[@Mantis4]

just buy a 1$ gpu how hard is that lmao 3x the performance

[@rotten_banana7570]

+Dark ^-^ NO NO NO! The Intel HD 4600 is identical to the GT 730, which the 730 costs around $30-$70 online and in stores, so in order to get a marginal upgrade, you would have to get the GT 745 that costs $60-$80 or higher.

[@hunterkillerii1483]

Being a former GT 730 owner, I can confirm that it's equal or faster than the HD 530, the Skylake integrated graphics. The Haswell integrated graphics aren't a match for the 730.

[@theereplays1165]

Dark ^-^ you are really misinformed.

[@Vinni-K]

This is probably the smoothest tunnel bear ad yet.

[@betterthannoone7636]

anyone else like looking at older videos because it makes you feel like you have a good graphics card😂

[@KristophM]

I'm happy with my GTX 1080. I was considering the GTX 1080 Ti, but the price to performance ratio vs the GTX 1080 made it a bad value for me personally. I can play a lot of games in 4K at ultra settings with my 1080 at 60fps just fine. Obviously with certain games, like Deus Ex: Mankind Divided, I have to either turn down some settings or just lower the resolution to 1440p to keep the settings at ultra. I am not bothered by this. For a lot of people, the GTX 1080 is overkill and especially the GTX 1080 Ti.

[@chills5100]

Not these day's though even the Gtx 1080Ti is considered entry level and by two more gen's it will be considered as an display adapter frankly LoL.

[@KristophM]

@@chills5100 Lmao, true.

[@boktorinator693]

These 4+ year old cards cost more now than when they came out Damn

[@chrisestes624]

UNREAL TOURNY!!!!!!! That is, to this day, still my favorite multiplayer fps!

[@Kbkiller420w]

I bought a used gtx 760 for $40 december 2017. And it still stands its ground! Best deal ever I feel!

[@SteveHasCake]

honestly that 1080 is starting to look like a good deal in 2020

[@SplendidNinja]

1080ti looks like it was the wall the hit and everything and just been slight upgrades on that over the years, so yeah... it's Def still looking good, especially if you aren't worried about super high fps at 4k.

[@jake20479]

I bought a brand new 1060 6gb ssc for 240$ in 2019 *sigh*

[@elkmeatenjoyer3409]

Is that too expensive? Trying to build a pc.

[@zxzxz999zzz]

very well done thanks guys

[@MinecraftianV]

Linus, what is your opinion on the Net Neutrality situation that's been arising these past few days?

[@BesterP12]

Renegade Legend not sure it will affect him in Canada. Except his US fans might get tunnel bear blocked. Any VPN company that relies on the US is screwed.

[@MinecraftianV]

BesterP12 Yes, I see, but still. There are individuals all across the world that are concerned by une US's decision. I just want to see what Linus and the Tech Tips Team think about Net Neutrality and everything.

[@sarah-_-6730]

We'll figure out tomorrow on the wan show probably. It doesn't affect him, or me for that matter, since he and I live in Canada

[@TeensierPython]

I am sure he is for net neutrality, I haven’t seen anyone really against it. I wish I could see a video with a valid 2 sided debate on the issue, I don’t think it’s as simple as people assume (but I could be wrong, which is why I want a good debate). Anytime something goes to government control/oversight it kills innovation. Look how the space programs are doing now that private industries are involved (and are relatively unrestricted).

[@sandman4897]

They are always threatening this shit it's not new here

[@krazydarkness0110]

That awkward moment when the 290x isnt in the recommendations. From personal views im at 3440x1440 high/ultra with decent frame rates only problem being in particularly high resource games the fan will turn into a leaf blower

[@michaelhearn7302]

Um, wrong generation of cards. To get the same performance now would be cheaper since he assumed buying new, though I dont know the exact equivalent cards to the 290x's performance.

[@sgredsch]

i love how mining is the extra u get with radeon gpus instead of the "free"sync.

[@vincedv7635]

That was a good Segway for your ad😂

[@MerkinMuffly]

I got a 580, is that good?

still yes

I got intel intergrated graphics is that good for 4k gaming?

[@yukihanayuki]

@@Chrn226 i wish they did but they don't really prioritize integrated graphics unlike amd apus

[@chase1255]

More chances for the miners to fuck up the already fucked up GPU prices.

[@NeuronalAxon]

So who is going to do a review video on the best cards on the market for games/3D performance that are no good at crypto mining?

[@philipottey7723]

GTX 1080 founders edition before miners: $350-$400 after miners:$700-$800 cyber monday/right now: $549 dafuq happend?

[@diamonddb97]

Philip Ottey fucking miners just when I was gonna build my pc and also what’s up with the ram prices I remember they use to be 40$ or so now it’s like 80$ it’s absurd

[@izzy402077]

Got me a 1060 3gb for 155 USD from newegg and I am very happy with the performance it provides me,Destiny 2 looks amazing at high detail

[@triumph_3246]

god i love this channel

[@leonardomincolelli7202]

amd relive is just as good as shadowplay if not better... said from someone that has both a 980ti and a rx480...

[@liebchenxd3775]

Ill wait until team blue joins the competition xD

[@liebchenxd3775]

just buy 2 fury x2s and crossfire on the nvidia gays like orlando!

[@ryan1696]

Team Blue can make amazing powerful processers. How bad will it be if GPU favors more slow ones?

[@rgardana8068]

Team Red would be swimming in it with their FX series

[@solamisandwich05]

I am only frantically watching linus's videos to catch up on a 7 year computer knowledge deficit. I don't keep up with this stuff. Who is team blue? Or is that a joke?

[@valentino3372]

solamisandwich05 team blue=Intel team red=AMD team green=Nvidia (Not really used,but still)

[@ferrydianto5988]

Hi Linus this is a great video, please make this for 2019 :)

[@BloodyKnives66]

I'm happy with my 1060 GTX plays all 100 of my PC games at max and Ultra including Arm 3, Company of Heros, GTA V etc.

[@tceo]

Ever heard of crimson relive?

[@kamild_]

TheChosenEvilOne Playz Games All it does is record (incl. replays). And it doesn't even do that correctly all the time. It still needs to be improved to be a viable alternative to ShadowPlay. RX 480 user, btw

[@worldkat1393]

Yup wish it had more audio control features but it doesnt affect my rx 480 performance which is great.

[@firstnamelastname6118]

I just use OBS with AMD's hardware encoder. Same performance as ReLive but with more control

[@Bolizen]

Redux - In, ReLive records without issue. Maybe you messed something up.

[@syukrir.robert8994]

Strike105X same, no issues. Maybe he mess something up

[@GhostonGuitar]

$500 won’t get me shit.

[@onesteeltank]

Flash Games oh rly? I have an amazing PCPartPicker list for 497

[@twiztidsidfreak13]

If you can't game at 1080 60fps for under $200 then we can't say that PC gaming is cheaper than Console anymore! I should be able to play games without spending more on a GPU than I do on rent!

[@onesteeltank]

WYLTK13420 I can give u a list rn dude

[@pr0tat013]

You can get a 1080.

[@idofps9709]

but consoles arent ALL 60 FPS and most arent 1080p.

[@YeapGuy]

Recently got an MSI gtx 1060 3g for 289$! So happy!

[@danichaos77]

Not a good deal, tbh. You should get the 6gb version. 3gb one will have a way shorter life.

When you guys test stuff, can you start doing Hashcat benchmarks? This is the #1 thing I'm interested in when buying a new GPU.

[@ritvik9489]

Rx580. Its basically the newer AMD version of the 1060 and honestly the perfect midrange card.

[@hailsalviaeric2163]

Ritvik ehhhhh i prefer the 1060

[@Rhys-gv3ir]

Rx 580 out performs 1060 and the 1060 is older so future games it will be worse

It would be a better value if the damn dirty bit miners didn't pillage it from the shelves.
