Hey , I play cod war zone do you think it’s worth making the jump? I don’t mind spending the money tbh I get 240fps already and for my aurora i read that its a easy install and i can probably sell my graphics card. I should have upgraded when purchasing but i wanted to get it asap.I have an alienware 27 inch monitor alsoAny input is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
@Anonymous Maybe I'm off but I thought the new thing with the nVidia 3000 series was PCIe Gen 4??
Wrong? . . . 'cause if that is it, and your 'puter is still Gen 3, then where's the beef?
Not sure I'm understanding the question. Intel 10th gen still doesn't even support PCiE 4.0, so basically all the Intel people are in the same boat. I doubt that would prevent anyone from buying the GPU though - as it's backwards compatible with the prior gen. That is, you can still run a 4.0 at 3.0 speeds (or, if you have an Aurora as that is only x8, 2.0 speeds).

Yeah that’s what I meant. Is it worth the upgrade ? For the 2080TI from the 2080 super ?

Depends on what games you want to play at what resolution/ refresh rate/ frame rates.

The 2080s does still have good resale value, so the out of pocket can be lowered, but I would still wait yeah.

First upgrading from a 2080 Super to 2080 TI is not worth the $1,000 in the best of times.
You should expect the 3000 series in the next 90 days.
If there’s a 3060/70/80 as been the trend you’re going to have new hardware, same price points.
I would tell anyone this is the wrong time to be buying a 10% upgrade in current generation hardware/performance.
