ASUS officially announces price hikes from January 5, right before CES 2026

Thanks. My brother is looking for a new GPU and I showed him this so he's going to pull the trigger this weekend. It's just a 9070xt but it's a big jump up from his 1080.

Now I'm just wondering how much of a bottleneck my Ryzen 5 3600 is going to be. I've only got a 1440p monitor though so hopefully I can squeeze another year or two out of it before going for a full mb/cpu/ram replacement

There's a small bottleneck so you are good for now. Too bad you can't get a 5800X3D for less than an AM5 upgrade.
