People Will Literally Fight Over This - RTX 3070 Ti Review

In an age where people will fight over even the chance to get a video card, does it really matter how one performs or what it costs? And is the 3070 Ti even any good?

Correction: The 3070 Ti uses GDDR6X, not GDDR6 and 3080 is 10GB, not 12. The chart was messed up :(

Quick feedback for the editor (Mark, or whoever came up with that), since this is the first time I've seen it in an LTT video: The pointers in the charts, indicating what data-points Linus is talking about, REALLY improve the ability to understand them. Honestly surprised that this wasn't a thing years ago.

Linus: People will literally fight over this.
Also Linus: **Has 5**

Linus must’ve been doing a lot of fighting for those

The only thing i learned from these graphs, is that my 2070S that i got last march is more than fine for a long time.

[CryptoNWO]

At this moment I’m willing to have a fist fight for a 2080ti

[awaissohail]

I get the feeling, while some of them are actually desperate for the card to finish their builds or whatever, most are actually there to buy the card to scalp it in that video.

"Shortage of gpus has gotten so dire..."
Me: Looking at those 5 gpus casually sitting there on his desk.

When I see those people running for a GPU, this is the exact moment I'm telling myself : « this shit is really goin too far »

[BiigManGage]

This is honestly not surprising whatsoever, GPU's make people go crazy.

[loudryka]

80% of those people are just trying to get it to flip and make 3x the amount

[kevkas]

3080 non-Ti ended up being the card that actually makes more sense to buy from a cost to performance point of view, if you can get one ofc. Also, the first ones didn't have LHR limitations so that factors in for future second hand market value.

When I went from a 1070 to a 2080, I was worried I was jumping the gun on upgrading, given the current situation, I am very happy I switched

[hitnrun]

I got a 2080 super before corona hit and was a little bummed because the 30 series cards came out shortly after. Now im just glad i have a gpu lmfao.

[adamnajem]

whenever you're sad just remember people who sold their rtx 2080 ti for 500 $

[churrboy]

at this point, watching tech videos make me sad ;-;

[kabloosh]

I am so glad I got my 2070 Super. I can easily keep that GPU around until the 5000 series comes out.

[curupa]

If anyone at LMG looks at this for feedback, tell the design guys I love the new square indicators that pop up highlighting the numbers Linus is comparing.

It's like the Seagull scene from Nemo they're saying "mine, mine, mine"

I wont lie the RTX 3070 TI is underrated people are always saying that the card is bad when actually its a pretty decent card just because its closer to the RTX 3070 does'nt mean you have to shame the living shit out of it.

[LonelySandwich]

at this point nvidia is just playing release the same gpu with subtle tweaks to make more money outta the shortage.
