    How about this. A little over budget. Maybe I can save somewhere?

    What sort of monitor will you be using?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,816 ✭✭✭✭K.O.Kiki


    €1000 is £880

    So the 2070 Super is out of your price range.
    Choose between RTX 2060 SUPER or RX 5700 / 5700 XT.

    Also drop that SSD - the Samsung 970 is not necessary for gaming lol
    Also don't worry about adding SSDs/HDDs - they only take 5-10W each.

    I'm not sure. I have a 500 euro one for all voucher which means I need to buy from somewhere like pc world. So not great for value. With this voucher I want to get monitor and headset and keyboard mouse.

    Thanks a lot. Do you think there is a massive difference in performance between the two cards?

    Only ordered the below last night, with similar budget to you. I also have a spare 500GB SSD but bought the extra NVMe because it's new and shiny.

    Good article which prompted me to research more. What about Ray tracing etc?

    Hi

    You can redeem the one4all card for cash - you need to pay €8 to do this. For your voucher that might make sense.

    See https://www.one4all.ie/terms-condition

    If it's a BIK tax exemption one, you can't redeem it for cash. Which I'm guessing it is given the amount. I'm actually in the same position trying to buy a gfx card with one.

    (I tried before - rang them to be sure, gave them the card number, they confirmed I could redeem it. Then after I posted it to them they rang back to say they couldn't and posted it back to me.

    Makes sense, but a bit annoying they couldn't tell me up front.)

    Os there even a brick and mortar option for buying cards now? I think oneforall are capped to 50, when doing a web purchase.
