sangheili12 Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 hey guys not sure if this is even allowed in the forums but i thought this was the best place to ask.so im getting a new pc and the main games ill be playing are basically fallout games and age of empires 2. so im down to the gpu so i was just going to buy a 1080 ti but ill rather not spend the 800 bucks if i can get away with a cheaper gpu. im going to mod the heck out of the game improving the textures and all that. so was wondering what gpu u guys use.im goin gwith a ryzen 1600 for cpu. just want to know if a rx 580 is enough of if a 1070 is enough, or if i really need the 1080 ti. thanx and sorry if topics like this dont go in the forums.

Moksha8088 Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 1070, 580, 1080 and all less expensive. That new 1070 Ti has those snazzy extra letters too. If it comes to a choice between the 1070 and the 580, go with 1070. All have more than enough power for a 1080 screen display with all the bells and whistles.

Valyn81 Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 If it matters to you. check this site https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/high_end_gpus.html and for a CTRL F to search the page for your potential cards. the higher the rating the better the care. if the number is not huge diff you can safely go with the lower end card and save some $$$ GeForce GTX 1080 Ti 13,508 $719.99 (get this if you can afford it, future proofing)GeForce GTX 1070 Ti 12,284 $449.99 (get this if you need to save money, about the same as the 1080 Ti)Performance differences between the 1080 Ti and 1070 Ti are so minor you are not likely to notice unless you are a fanatic.====================================================================GeForce GTX 1080 12,035 $509.99 (Get this if money is tight... oh wait it is more $$$... just get the 1070 TI)Radeon RX 580 8,231 $249.99 (Do not get this. It will not even support FO5 or most of the new games in 3-4 years) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
