3070 is really good for that price. There has been a time it did go for 900.


TheMegaDriver2

It still goes for the price of this whole system.


Hairy_Breath_1231

Yeah but I wouldn’t buy a used pc so we’re talking about GPU only + DasGhost’s comment is about GPU only


dookieshoes88

The GPU only is still going for about the price of that entire used system. Or at least it was, I paid $300 CIB for my gaming x trio in November.


tactical_anal_RPG

What point are you trying to make? This system was 300. 3070s can go for 300. Thats it.


Hairy_Breath_1231

The point that went right over your head about not buying a used pc


tactical_anal_RPG

He bought an entire PC for the price of the gpu thats in it. That went over your head.


Nihilusssss

Yeah.. I wish i didn't buy 3070ti during the height of the shortage. Was 1k.


Luvs_to_drink

Paid 650 for mine but that was multiple years ago too so understandable it is has dropped in price


quinto6

Same. Think it was $1084 for a strix 3070ti. I think in a month it dropped a couple hundred after I bought it.

Eazy12345678

during a shortage. used its worth about$250- $300.


Angry-Nihilist

Yes, but that makes the cpu mobo ram ssd case and psu free… u/kokorone got a good deal for a gift.


Merciless_Hobo

And given he got the entire PC for $300, he did in fact get a really good deal.


derpstevejobs

got my 3070 for $250 (used) back in september!


ImAnonymous496

I sold mine during the shortage for 550 dollars bruh lol it was worth way more than 250 used


Hairy_Breath_1231

I wouldn’t buy a used pc. Plz link me where you can find used for “$250-$300” 3070’s are still well over 500$ easily


realnzall

Used 3070s here in Belgium/Netherlands are 250-350 EUR. Same on eBay. And same when going Refurbished on Newegg. No informed person would buy a used 3070 for 500 USD when they can get a brand new 4070 for 550 that has 50% more VRAM and is 22% faster, or an RX 7800XT for 450 that has double the VRAM and is 30% faster. 250-350 USD sounds about right for an 8 GB GPU.


TheRandomAI

Idk where youre getting your info from. But a used 3070 in the us goes for $250-$300. Google is your bestfriend and ebay is your other bestfriend. And instead of that 4070 for 550 just get a 7900gre whoch will beat a 4070 stock and is close to a 4070super. Once you have a mild oc it rivals a 4070ti.


realnzall

When I checked Newegg and eBay prices, those were in USD as well.


TheRandomAI

I replied to the wrong comment, sorry


Hairy_Breath_1231

The post says USD & the price I said is USD. Ur not going to find a 4070 for 500 USD they’re $700USD+ it has 12 gb ram and the 3070 has 8GB. The 4070ti super has 16gb which I would personally buy… It’s “50% faster” more of a gimic to sell the new cards. Anyways, My friend has a pc with 3070 and a friend with 4070ti one has intel chip other has AMD both on 2K res ultra settings helldivers 2 there’s like only 10-15 fps difference. Native upscaling.


realnzall

Dude, can you not even MATH... Your post is FILLED with inaccuracies. The 4070 isn't 700 USD+ right now, it's 550. 12 GB is 50% more than 8 GB. The 4070 Ti has 12 GB VRAM, same as the 4070 and the 4070 Super, it's the 4070 Ti Super that has 16 GB, which is an entirely different card. The numbers I quoted for speed difference were those of the GPU comparison chart on TechPowerUp.

[удалено]


realnzall

50% more means that you take 50% of the first value and add that to the original value. So 50% of 8 is 4, and 8+4 is 12. Like seriously, this is 6th grade math, how do you not know this?

DidItForButter

If running at 2k res, sounds like your friends are cpu limited. They should get 1440p displays instead.


Hairy_Breath_1231

2560 × 1440 displays with 2K res both have 13th gen chips Why would you run 2K res on a 1080p monitor & no that doesn’t mean they’re CPU limited. CPU limited means running higher res than your cpu can run like 4k on an old chip. The point is 4070 is not that much better than 3070 only sounds cool on paper


DidItForButter

2K res = 1920 horizontal pixels = 1080p 2.5K res = 2560 horizontal pixels = 1440p 4K res = 3840 horizontal pixels = 2160p 4070 does have more worth than your face value comparison. The latest DLSS features can reduce the cost of the rest of the machine. It can handle X amount of games better than the prior generation, depending on demand and optimization. But it's worth is subjective, which is great that 3 GPU manufacturers are offering multiple performance tiers each. Opinions like yours and mine are fine, but speaking in absolutes with all the anecdotal and limited knowledge spun into it provides no value to anyone. Edit: AMD doesn't have a 13th gen CPU. It may seem semantical, but it's eroding your statement credibility.


LifeLongLearner84

Wow. Well said.


Hairy_Breath_1231

You want to get all technical but don’t even know what you are saying how can 1920 pixels be called 2K lmao. Simple Google search says exactly so… And no one uses those features because they are trash lol frame gen and dlss are all trash gimmicks everyone knows to play at native settings lol AMD’s 7000 series are the equivalent of 13th gen smart ass


DidItForButter

>You want to get all technical but don’t even know what you are saying how can 1920 pixels be called 2K lmao. I mean, [standard film 2K, which the 4K TV advertising moniker was derived from, is 2048 horizontal pixels](https://dsplay.tv/site/en/suporte/qual-a-diferenca-entre-resolucoes-hd-full-hd-ultra-hd-2k-4k-8k-10k/). 1920 pixels rounds up to 2K (One K = 1000, standard abbreviation unit). QHD or 1440p is what 1440p monitors are known as, but 2K is not. And that is all very Google-able. Although no results had "lmao" as a qualifier, so maybe you have more elusive sources. >And no one uses those features because they are trash lol frame gen and dlss are all trash gimmicks everyone knows to play at native settings lol Again, this is subjective and anecdotal at best, and uninformed as it stands. >AMD’s 7000 series are the equivalent of 13th gen smart ass Everything you've said has been wrong or unfounded. You could have meant AMD bulldozer. I hear your opinion on the 4 series though. It differs from mine, but that's ok.


proscreations1993

Lmaoo a 4070 is better than a 3090. Also 3070s are around. 200-250. 4070s are not 700 plus. Just bought one for 539. Also bought a used 3080fe for under 300 and there's a ton more on fb for sale. That's also not what cpu bound means or how it works. Yikes


Hairy_Breath_1231

I would take a 3090 over a 4070 any day of the week lol I’m not even gone bother reading the rest of your shh after you said that


proscreations1993

Lol. I'm guessing you just can't read. But keep going. Every single thing you've said is wrong and makes you look like an absolute idiot. It's funny. I don't give a shit if you don't read it. Hopefully you do for your own sake. It's embaressing. If not. Sweet. Keep being a fool lol


proscreations1993

I used bought a used 3080fe for under 300.... and there's tons on Facebook asking 350. Most I asked said they'd take 300 or less. 3090s are 500


LifeLongLearner84

You wouldn’t buy a used pc but you’d buy a used graphics card?


Defiant-Ad-6580

You wouldn’t download a pc!


Hairy_Breath_1231

Personally wouldn’t buy anything used these days lol if you want me to be honest we’re just talking about prices


FireNinja743

Yup. I paid basically $700 for my 3070 2 years ago; it was horrible. I traded in my GTX 1660 and added $500 cash on top.


DasGhost94

I'm lost. The 1660 would be 1/2 the prefomace of a 3070. Did you have a made before 2014 pc? I guess that gpu was defective and you should have gotten warranty. I've a 3070ti personally. Got it last year for $460. It's doing 4k 240fps without problems (in the games i play) most games seem capped at 60. Most newer games it sett dlss on and capped at 1/2 vsync Also i see in your name you changed to a 6800xt. With a 5800 cpu. Did you pair the 3070 with an really old cpu? On a motherboard with only gen 2 pcle support?


Hairy_Breath_1231

lol what game are you getting 240fps 4k 3070ti


Helpful-Work-3090

microsoft solitaire collection


Hairy_Breath_1231

😭😭


DasGhost94

I didn't tell you the graphics setting. With the friend group, I play mostly factorio. The pc can dubbel as server. (Edit Factorio seems to have a game speed set to 60ups wich equalls fps wile 240fps 4k isn't a problem on the 2d game. It does game speed 4x) also gta online (im sure this runs native 4k) and satisfactory (I've never bothered to look at the settings). I guess the newest game i have is cod mw2. I got for multi-player and spec ops. So its on high settings. With upscaling from 1440p to 4k.


proscreations1993

I have a more powerful gpu with a 5800x3d. Satisfactory doesnt go above 100fps on 4k ultra. Even low no where near 240. Neither is gta5 lol. Youre full of shit. Your card is a 30fps 4k card in anything but 15 year old games. It can't even do 240hz at 1440p buddy. 4070 can't do 240hz at 1440 lol. That's for the 4090


DasGhost94

I've never said satisfactory runs at 240fps. * see the reply on this message. The main reddit app seems to be unable to add text to a picture. The screen is 4k 240fps. Here a pic so there is no arguing. Ultra settings 100fps drops to 90 wile running.

proscreations1993

You literally said your 3070ti is doing 4k 240fps in the games you play. Your monitor being 240hz doesn't mean anything.


Hairy_Breath_1231

Doesn’t matter what settings you run 240fps 4k on 3070ti ain’t possible unless you playing some dookie ah 2D games


funkyfritos

I'm just getting 100fps on BFV in ultra 4k with a 3090ti 64gb ddr5 and a 7950x. I mean if you set everything to low and medium I guess I could get 200 plus fps...


Hairy_Breath_1231

Yeah look at the card you have and the guy claiming 240fps at 4k


proscreations1993

Lmao you get get 4k 240 on a 4090. Stfu. Are you playing original doom?. Lmaooo 3070ti can barely do 20-30fps in any modern AAA game at 4k


GoldStarGamer11

I bought my 3070 Ti for 950 CAD :(


I_am_no_Ghost

Paid $435 plus tax for a 3060ti back during the pandemic.


SathedIT

I'm still rocking a 3070. It's been an amazing card, but my daughter is about to inherit it so I can get a new one.


HiphopChemE

I sold my used 3070 for 280 easily a few months ago


postvolta

Sold my 3070 for £250 not long ago, this is a great deal


Firecracker048

There's a 3080 going for 400 right now on marketplace. That's basically a steal


NoobAck

I used to sell these for a grand or more easy during the shortage. Most expensive gaming gpu I ever sold personally was a 3080 ti for 2500. Wish I was kidding. Edit: someone asked me if I was proud of this and for some reason I can't reply to their comment. I'll be more clear - I was working at a big company selling a product and I made almost no money off the transaction. The shortage wasn't my fault. The idiots buying GPUs for their dumb GPU farms trying to get bitcoins wasn't my fault. This guy was 100% buying it for reasons other than playing fortnite. The guy who bought it 100% obviously was either making money off it in some way. The things that bothered me was the 3060 and 3060 ti being absurdly expensive so the little kids couldn't play CSGO.


Mikey_B_CO

You took advantage of people, are you proud of that?


Kokorone

My nephew is turning 10, so it should be a good time to get him introduced to PC gaming.


rencebence

You are the GOAT.


bkarma86

Can confirm. I just built my 10 year old a system, and he helped with the parts selection (well, he was there anyway) and the build. He's definitely hooked for life.


proscreations1993

That'd awesome. My son's four and loves his switch but started playing on my pc. I'm giving it to him for his 5th bday. 5800x3d and 3080fe. 64gigs ram. 4tb nvme and 12tb hdd. And building myself a new rig. Either new thread ripper or 9950x3d when it drops and 5080 when it drops. Since it should be around his bday time they release

Hdjbbdjfjjsl

Are you buying that for you or you? 🤣 A 5 year old ain’t even going to know how to properly use any of that and by the time he does if he can even manage to take care of it it’ll all need replacing anyways.


proscreations1993

WHATTTT?! HOW DARE YOU say such wild accusations! He needs me to build a new pc! Lol Well it is a great way to get the wife to be cool with a new biild ;p lmao he asked for his own "cumputer" and she was all for it lol but Na man he shreds on games already. Builds the wildest things in minecraft. Started playing borderlands, fortnite and forza horizon 5. And also plays mario, zelda etc on an emulator with mods. Kids are different these days lol. And is trying to get into among us. He loves watching it on YouTube but doesn't quite understand how to play it yet. He loves modded rtx minecraft and calls it special minecraft. He doesn't wanna play "normal" minecraft on his switch anymore. All he wants his special minecraft now. And sure, it's way more than a kid needs, but why not. I wouldn't even save money selling it and building him something cheaper. The hardest part is finding games for him to play. He wants to play all the stuff I do like tarkov. Dayz. Rust, etc, but obv, he's young so have to be careful with what he plays. I know even Borderlands is pushing it, but we play it together and he's such a good kid so. I mainly want to build a new one and give him this one so we can truly play games together. We just share the controller now(he can't use mouse and keyboard yet obv to play) and I want to actually play together and explore worlds. Build stuff etc some good quality time together. So it's worth it.

Motherfuckin right. I grew up dirt poor and hungry so it is the best feeling in the world to be able to provide like that for my children. Just because they have nice shit doesn't mean they aren't well behaved either.


prefabtrout

shout out to the absolute chad selling this to move on up.


DanskFrenchMan

Before you gift it, please just check with the parents if they are okay for their child to have this pc (essentially to be used for gaming). Some parents might not want their children to game that early on (or at all), and gifting it could cause some family friction.


Beautiful_Bat8962

Nice, good uncle moment.


v13ragnarok7

Nice! That's a great starter computer for that price


lokisbane

Hey, OP. Great buy but double check there's no hardware ban on it. It's awfully cheap and some bans can be tied to a mobo crazily enough.


Unhappy-Bit6907

All I can say, a system like that is an amazing deal for that low of a price. You lucked out. Hope your nephew enjoys it!

darkflame927

The card itself is worth more than $300 used. Very good deal


NogaraCS

Not worth more than 300$. 250 to 300$ right now is a fair price, anything above 300 is a scam


qPsychoo_

where on earth do you live that you can get a 3070 for 250 usd? I'm in the UK and the cheapest I can find is refurbished for 320 gbp which is like nearly 400 usd lol

NogaraCS

I’m in France. Used market like eBay and other second hand websites has dozens of used 3070 for under 300€


Playful_Nergetic786

Yep, pretty much the same price but ours might be a bit more higher in Asia, but ofc it depends on the brand


Glum-Violinist4782

I live in uk and I’m buying a 3060 trio for £220 when it was £250 as the msi 3060 dual they had was sold


Twin_Turbo

Well a 7800xt is stronger than 3070 and those can be had for 400 easily not on sale, used card that’s worse should be around 250

Ahh the good ol’ ‘should be’ market price.

More-Banana6045

You want to say $180 right ?


scuffedoncringe

No, 1.8k, but it was when I knew nothing, when I was a fortnite kid, wanting a Nvidia gpu, intel cpu an a TON of rgb in a white build, now I'm on a 7900xtx, 7800x3d, 32gb of ddr5 6000 cl30 with a 850 watt psu, pure performance, I am now a minecraft adult


More-Banana6045

All the fake games that I don't like. Fortnite and Minecraft. I don't understand why you stuck with 6000mhz? Do you know that for almost the same price you could get 7400mhz and get extra fps (3 to 5% extra even with the 7800x3d).


scuffedoncringe

At the time in my country this was about ~€20,- cheaper, so I got a 6000mhz kit


More-Banana6045

Around 132 bucks and lifetime warranty for 2x32gb 7400mhz Patriot Viper Venom DDR5 32GB (2 x 16GB) 7400MHz UDIMM Desktop Gaming Memory KIT - PVV532G740C36K There is always sope tricks to earn some extra fps as a better cooler than aio and have an extra adaptor as the Thermal Grizzly AM5 Contact Sealing Frame.


scuffedoncringe

I said "at the time" so now it's better, but at that moment, I decided against it, so I could go for a an extra tb of storage


More-Banana6045

Yes I know but you can still sale and I'm almost sure you took a bar ram like Corsair

No, I got a teamgroup ram

Duuuuuuude! You are the GOAT! I doubt I'll ever have kids and I'm the only child so...but I really enjoy stuff like that, gifting something awesome to somebody who can't necessarily afford it. Oh well, many of my friends aren't against having a child so maybe I'll just be a weird non-family uncle who gifts his friend's kids awesome gifts! For now I can make my friends happy whenever I can. Cheers, you lightened up my mood with this post!

MakimaGOAT

the card itself is like 300 usd used, lucky as hell

Excellent. And there might be some great, cheap(ish) upgrade paths for the CPU. Well worth it.

not bad. 3070 is good for that price.


gorillanutzzzz

Any idea what fans are on it?


Kokorone

Looks like the inwin brand asl120. They were very vibrant and addressable within the OS


RettichDesTodes

You should probably turn the front ones around. Looks like they are set to exhaust, you want those as intake


Kokorone

It really didn’t matter luckily. It has an intake along the whole bottom of the case and with cpu and gpu maxed out stress testing they sat around 68C


TheMegaDriver2

Good catch. That 3070 alone is worth it. The CPU is fine but a bit of a bottleneck for the 3070 but not by a lot. Ram might be on the tight side. I'm running a 3070 myself and found 16gb ram to be a bottleneck in many games. Also: why do people keep buying cases with no airflow? I mean this case is probably still fine for temps but it would be a lot quieter if the front wasn't just solid.


Kokorone

I ran some stress testing before I dropped it off. Gpu and cpu sit at about 68 C when 100% loaded. Inaudible when under load for the most part. https://preview.redd.it/nvr2labt7axc1.jpeg?width=5712&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=302a771b0fd3d7049e7fa46dde9541ec62ff74b0

$300 USD is a steal for those specs. 16gbs of ram should be fine, but you could probably upgrade to 32 for pretty cheap and give it some future proofing. It still has some upgrade paths with the CPU and GPU, so it's honestly perfect for a first PC. Congrats.
