Hi,
Looking here for more advice / sanity check than anything else i have a build pretty much fleshed out. With a 4090 at the heart of it. However with the fact that the 4090 hasn't moved in price and it takes up 48% of my budget is it worth getting a second hand "tide me over" card till the 50 series is out rather than spilling 1.6k. i could then sell the "tide me over" card and replace with a 50 series.
What are my reasons for this....
-- Getting a 3080 or somthing around £500 would save 1k to spend on a 50 series (recommendations welcome)
-- The 4090 only has DP 1.4a
-- 50 series rumored to be 70% faster than the 40 ( 5090 at least)
-- A cheaper card would do for now for what i need.
the rest of the build would be this
MOBO still TBD ASUS ROG STRIX X670E-E / MSI MPG X670E Carbon WiFi / Asrock B650E Taichi Lite
Thanks
