Whatever you read online was wrong, the 3080 is about 30% faster than the 3070, huge gap. 3060TI and 3070 are very close (5-10%). 3080 is sameish as 4070, 3070 is about a 4060ti, and 3060ti is about a 4060.

Still a good deal, but not as good as the other deal.

3080 would have the benefit of 10GB of RAM vs 8GB on 3070. Not a deal breaker, just something to be aware of since we're comparing.

It's not a on paper thing, I'm not sure where you are looking but every big (gamers nexus etc) has them about 30% apart. I own both, have ran both in my main pc, it's definitely a big gap between them. Fps on the same pc same settings is going to be roughly 30% higher on the 3080 vs 3070. Like I said the 3080 and 4070 are fairly close, maybe that's what you were looking at. The 3070 was always a meh card, it was so close to the 3060ti for a good bit more, the 3080 at msrp was a monster bargain.

Maybe you are looking at tight fps numbers if it's a super demanding game, if the 3080 is running 60fps and the 3070 is at 42fps that's only 18fps, but that's still 30%.

Quote from Yelnats :
From what I've read, frame generation is more important for increasing high frame rates even higher than it is at increasing low framerate. Basically, it could be good to bring you from 120FPS to 240FPS, but when bringing you from 30 FPS to 60 FPS, it doesn't feel nearly as responsive as native 60FPS.
I think the technology will be more useful in the future if we get much higher refresh rates.
Well I use it every day and it's amazing at bringing 50-60 frames up to 90+ and feels very responsive. I think what you mean is it's not good at taking like 20 fps to 40.

This isn't that much different than the other Acer Predator deal. Just a _slightly_ less powerful GPU for the same price.

See my spreadsheet to compare them (near the bottom).

781 pre-tax. Bought the MSI one just earlier today; wondering also if this is worth the 80 dollars more.

Older and more powerful i7 + 3070 (~20% faster) + 2y warranty (refurb) vs newer less powerful i5 + 4060 + 1y (new) warranty. Not sure if this one is ddr4 or ddr5

I am in the same boat. The desktop is for my 9 year old, so not sure if I should spend the extra money!! Is this more "future proof" than the MSI one? Appreciate any advise.

I'm glad you asked. For those who are able to take advantage of the deal, I highly recommend the system outlined in line #31 of my spreadsheet and I'll tell you why. Even though the price jumped up $105 in the span of less than 5 days, this is a really good deal.
Reason #1 - 14th generation processor
Reason #2 - high speed RAM
Reason #3 - 850W PSU

All 3 reasons are the highest of any other system on the sheet.

Reason #4 - tied for best GPU on the sheet (except for the previous gen 3080).

Would anyone like to dispute that deal?
