If this is your existing system I'd suggest a 3080 to drive the Neo & upgrade the PSU to 1000W

We love you Ukraine
I wouldn't upgrade GPU just yet, very close to announcing the next gen which will lower prices of existing far further, plus next gen will offer more performance at a cheaper cost.

I'm still running a GTX1080 on a Samsung G9 at the moment until they release the next gen, it's around the same performance as your card, so I know it's fairly capable for the interim.

Thanks buddy! Do you think it will be the same carry on as with the 30 series (shortages/scalpers)

Yeah that is a great point! Let’s keep our fingers crossed 🤞

Will my 2070 super be sufficient for now if I dial the settings back?
