Next-gen graphics cards from AMD and Nvidia appear right around the corner, and you don't want buyer's remorse on an $800 purchase. Read Brad's full article on PCWorld. com

BAD ADVICE! If you wait until the newest chipset of anything to come out, you and thousands of others both actual consumers and scalpers a like will have already scooped it up then sell it at a premium as always. So you may have buyer's remorse buying a upgrade part now, but you won't see that new card for purchase until mid 2021 when the scalpers stop buying them.

I'm runnin a 970. Really great card but really showing its age with the 1080p gaming I do. Really want to upgrade but phuck PC gaming cards for now. Folks are padding their pockets so they are pricing them crazy. Just want a 1080p futureproof card with 8gb of VRam with a warranty and they want $400+ for it lol. Maybe winter sales might have better pricing.

Nah this is kind of ridiculous. He even says it around 2: 30. There's ALWAYS something coming out by the end of the year. Literally best value for the money right now is a used 2070 super which you can pick up for 300-400. Saying now is a terrible time to buy a card is just clickbait hype.

I got myself a MSI GTX 1660 SUPER Gaming X paired with my Ryzen 5 3600 and it's a great 1080p combo. Great placeholder until the newer generation is revealed. I don't think I'll be an early adopter of the new cards and will wait for price drops next year.

I have a gtx 1060 3gb i got second hand im going to wait for the 2000 series to go on sale then get a rtx2070 or buy a second hand one its all i need for my ryzen 5 2600x i only game at 60f 1080p

Should I purchase an rtx 2070 super now? :) Well, I dont wanna buy rtx 3000 series cards cuz rtx 2060 is sufficient for me but still to accomplish my dream setup I'm going with rtx 2070

Still deciding whether or not If should sell my 2070 super. I don't have a back up to replace it though. Do I just go and get a cheap shitter and ride it out till the new cards arrive? -

I-ve been using a shitty GTX 970m - yes remember when they made laptop variations of graphics cards. I hate it and cannot wait to upgrade to 3080 with 1440p at 200+ hz monitor

I feel this new generation both amd and nvidia is gonna be a real next gen like the consoles. Ill try to squeeze my old geforce for now and buy later during the next 8 months

My original plan is to get the rx 5700 xt for my (first pc build) I-m buying it on the 27th of this month. If u can-t get a rx 6800 or a 3070 I-ll continue with the 5700 xt
