I currently have an Asus Rog strix 3070ti OC 8gb. Paired with an 5700x. I game at 1440p on Asus qhd 165hz monitor. Varied games from FPS to racing and a bit of flight sim. I don't appear to have any issues at the moment with stuttering ect.
I can get £461 in credit from CEX for it or £400 In cash.
Would you think this would be a good time to trade in and buy a card with more VRam. I would not have to put too much to it to make the jump to a 4070 or a
6800xt. Or should I hold off to see if the prices drop on the latest gen cards and hope I still get a decent price for my 3070ti
Any thoughts appreciated

sorted byGame requirements are set based on the cards in use so the less the average gamer upgrades the better the average game will run on older/slower hardware.
However, I'm repeatedly reading about how 8gb VRam is not enough for upcoming titles. Dunno if that applies to 1440p gaming though.
I reckon I could pick up a similar performing 6800xt for roughly the same price that has more VRam and see me alright for the next few years. Then again I should wait for the 7800xt and see what happens then.
What do you think it's worth ?
