FlyIgnite Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 just wanting to know how long the intel i7's and the 1080's will still be relevant for the future? Im working towards getting a new computer and was wondering what gpu/cpu will keep me in the game for 2019 and atleast 2025 or later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeyYou Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 Video cards have advanced more than processors at this point, and, depending on which games you play, determines which part is more important. That said, I am still running an AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black processor, with a GTX 1060 6gb vid card. Runs the games I want to play rather well, for the age of the processor. I have upgraded the vid card a couple times though. That said, I am looking at doing a new build, and going with an i7 8700K, and GTX 1080, with as much ram on it as I can find. I suspect that will last me another 10 years. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
