As for GPU, I struggle to see why anyone would choose something other than a 7900GRE at the ~£500 price point, especially at 4k. It's not as if the competing Nvidia offerings can do convincingly offer 4k raytraced performance either so it's a bit of a moot point.
Click to expand...
you can get a 4070super for £540 and the gre is £530(cheapest on OCuk) so not much difference, and you get dlss on nvidia...fsr is agnostic so get both worlds and performance isn't that drastically different

Having had a look around I see the 4070s can actually be had for 515 elsewhere which does make the 7900gre look a little silly.

Still not convinced on buying a 12gb card for£500 in 2024 mind...

Afraid to count the total cost... And I've still got to buy the sim racing gear and cockpit.
Hopefully it's up to the task for sim racing (probably with a quest 3 for vr when I get the money together)

Many thanks for all your help

Huh! That's pretty odd since I can still edit old posts.

Nvm, just something to bear in mind in the future. It's not as if someone is going to wander in unaware of the rainforests charms!
