What's the better graphics card?

Posted 21st May 2023
What's the better graphics card out of these 2 from Cex? As my son needs a graphics card but my budget can only go to around £120 so trying to find the best for that price that plays FPS games & GTA V etc.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980 Ti 6GB GDDR5 £110
or
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB GDDR5 £90

    But yes, as above, I think GTX 1070 and Vega 56 or even 64 could be found for that much, which beat both (edited)

    Get on avforums and buy something a little better for less money.

    Theoretically the 980ti is better but over time we move from direct x 11 to newer technologies and Nvidia tends to not support older cards so given those prices I would get the 1060.

    I'll see if can find an upto date comparison as it's not just raw power but modern drivers

    I used to go hunting based on raw power charts but the world moves on (edited)

    This is most recent I can find



    Also presume your PSU has enough power and connectors for the 980ti? (edited)

    If you dont mind ebay, you might find a 1660 for around your budget. (edited)

    You should be able to find a used 1070 for that price which still performs decently in older titles or recent ones at 1080p.

    You should be able to get a GTX 1070 off ebay for that. At least I brought one last year for £100 & will be relisting it soon for £100 delivered.

    Just offer £90 & you should get someone to accept.
