The RTX 5070ti is currently the best bang for the buck though. Because the RTX 5080 is with 16GB VRAM only. Now to wait for the RTX 5080 ti/super with 24GB VRAM version...
 
MSI just introduced the Ventus 3X Overclocked Plus version of RTX 5080:

DLSS 4 and MFG (specific for the RTX 50) :
 
MSI displays RTX 5080 with 24 GB G7 VRAM on the card's box lol spoiler, the real 24GB version to come later lol

Nvidia's new neural texture compression tech will reduce VRAM usage by 7x without any texture quality reduction. so 16GB VRAM might actually be more than enough. Dang i am tempted to get the 16GB launch version instead of wating for the 24GB version so that i could play Tifa PLOT II this month!

Thought this was yours until I read the last bit :c

lol. I am currently in a dilemma lol, either wait for the 24GB version or get the 16 GB version for Tifa PLOT II and play with her PLOT II PC this month lol because of NVIDIA's new Neural texture compression tech that will reduce VRAM usage by 7x thus 16GB is future proof enough.

I think I'm waiting to see if the 5080 gets a ti or super tbh.

So you are planning to get the RTX 5080 ti/Super and not wait for the future PCIE gen 6 GPU? The hints are definitely strong on it getting the 24GB version. The Laptop launch version of RTX 5090 is already using the newer 3GB Chip thus 24GB VRAM. Can easily be done with the desktop RTX 5080 too.

Not sure. Got to do some research when info is live about it.
 
85-89C during 100% load intense 3d gaming is normal and fine with normal fan mode. The danger zone is above 93C, if the temp is above 93C for a long time during 100% load then it's dangerous for the GPU. But that GPU will never go into the danger zone unless there's something wrong with it.
I was playing Satisfactory on Ultra and the GPU was at 98% load, and the temp stayed around 80C with the fan at a constant 75%. The GPU temp now is 32C. :grin:
