1080ti is TWO WHOLE GENERATIONS BEHIND not to mention a whole architecture change. A simple cursory look at benchmarks from any YouTuber on 1080p will make it clear enough.

1060 is too good of a value even now, 1050ti will make consumers cry and buy a newer one sooner than if they got a 1060. What they want is a temporary stop in demand , not a long term one.

550 supports without bios upgrade. Some 450 need bios upgrade. I recommend a 450 board cause 3300X is not a super demanding cpu and amd might switch to am5 for zen 4 and 550 board will become pretty useless for future upgrades considering their relatively higher costs over b450.

Watching this cause my 10+2+2 TB drives are getting full and I’m thinking of keeping a NAS for my plex server. Complete noob here.

Not much. Unlike 400 series where the quality of the boards changed a lot betwee450 and 470 550 and 570 have a lot in common. FTF, b550 boards have amazing build quality compared to 450. I have an Mai gaming edge WiFi , and damn, it looks and performs amazing. From the top of my head , x570...

If you have a 144hz + display, it’s on the limits of reaching overkill. Cause it’ll run a lot of AAA games near that fps. It’s a decent future proof solution in that case as it’ll last a long time , till AAA games 5 years from now can comfortably run at 1080p 60fps even then! ofc only buy it if...

I heard about this place on r/indiangaming, lookins to sell me new 1660S if the price is good enough. Can someone guide me how the process works here?
