Needs to be a reasonable upgrade from a 1070ti so probably looking at a 1080ti or 2070super. Anyone silly enough to be upgrading from one of those by any chance? :-)

www.pbtech.co.nz ?...

 

 

Their stock of secondhand 1080ti's is a little low at the moment... I don't really need RTX for what I want.... but outstanding performance on previous generation games (racing sims mainly with a triple screen) and huge amount of memory for Davinci Resolve (There is a benefit to 11G over 6 or 8G) are what I am after...

 

If I was to buy new a 2070 super is the easy choice, but a 1080ti with 11GB might be better for me, and should be cheaper.

Does that mean you want to sell your 1070?😀

I will seriously consider selling my 1080 Ti when the 3xxx series is available. I suspect a few other people are in the same position - so if you can wait until then there may be more cards on the market.

The price on them is still quite high, because unless people specifically want RTX ray tracing, there's just no real benefit to upgrading. I think you are still looking at 800-1k,
