Don't let go!

A 1080TI still plays every release at medium or higher settings. /shrug

Unless you're worried about 4k or VR, I wouldn't upgrade anyway.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, when humanity is wiped out future species will find a Nokia on half battery and a fully working 1080Ti.

1070ti gang here. no problems playing anything on medium/high.

I don't do 4k though but VR is fine.

1080ti is still a beast

.....

.....

I have never felt more called out.

If my 1080 gives up in the near future, I'll probably just give up AAA gaming. BG3 is literally the only game in the last 5 years I have loved which would require more than a potato to run.

They can pry my 1080 out of my cold dead 12fps hands!

1070 gang

>me still running a 970

Having to run -400mhz on the vram to prevent mine from crashing all the time but I'm hanging in there 🥲👍

It's still a decent card, probably can still do well at 1080p max settings in most games. Very similar to a 3060 in terms of performance, which is the card I have.

1060 gang

Me and my 1060 ain't going anywhere

Depends on the games. My 980TI can still rock 3440x1440 in most of the games I play.

The fact that what I play is mostly metroidvania shouldn't be an issue, right? 😅

Even the base 1080 is still a very capable card. I recently gave mine to a friend when I upgraded to a 3060. And looking at the market, the Pascal generation will remain the goat for the foreseeable future.

Mine is a FE and still chugging along great. I did replace the godawful stock cooler with an aftermarket cooler with a GIANT heatsink. Temps never go over 60 anymore.

I remember when the 1080ti was top of the line. Good times.

I will replace my 1060 tomorrow for a 4060 ti. Really looking forward to it!

This is how I've always felt, running on old second hand unstable rigs. But it's better than nothing.

I'm actually considering upgrading to a 1070 (i have a 1050ti)

I am still holding on to my 1060 6gb, and honestly, if not for AI stuff, I wouldn't even consider upgrading.

Im going to switch my 1060 only becuz of wayland

I just went from a 3770k with a vega 64 to a 7800x3d with 7900xtx. Pretty big jump!

My 660ti is finally showing its age...

Gave up my 980ti for a 6700xt and am very glad. My i7 2600 (non-k) will be used till it truly shits the bed, going to frame it

My 1050ti wont ever leave my side. I am going to die with that card beside my death bed.

My 690 still works for many games. 🥲

My old 1080 still handles a stream now and again.

Did they remake Lolo Rabbit?

I recently upgraded from a 1080ti to a 7800XT. Sold the 1080ti on ebay, so hopefully it will continue on with a new life.

My 1080TI is still running fine

My original cpu I installed in high-school, well...

I’m expecting some good build opportunities in Spring 2024. Plan is to build two desktops, one AMD-heavy with the Arch-based Steam OS and another Nvidia desktop with Nobara and space for windows 12.
Storage on a self repairing raid array on a PCIx16 adapter is looking amazing, but hardware raid configurations are still preferable to software configs and I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For.

Why is no one talking about FSR3 and frame generation here?

I knew a guy at NVidia and got a screaming deal on a 980ti hybrid. Just replaced it with a used 2070 this year.

I just ordered parts for my first build since 2011. I've had my Sandybridge i5 at 4.5ghz most of this time... until the fans died and it overheated, replaced the fans and it was fine, brought it to 5ghz somehow so it could live out its last days in glory, it's been two years. That'll do pig, that'll do.

I mean, I dont often play games, but my 2016 laptop handles them (not very well). It has an i5 cpu and a radeon r7 m440 gpu (that has no updates since 2years ago) and I can somewhat play fortnite (its probably the most demanding game ny laptop can play, pubg runs at like 10fps).

I would think a pc with a 1080 can probably play games kinda well.

Me just now. Just got 7800 xt after all these great years.

Same but RX580 so a bit less behind.

My 1050ti is still working nicely for everything I play, but I would like some rendering speed improvements in blender so maybe I'll upgrade in some years

980TI still going strong! I don't play anything too demanding anyway and Ive taken real good care of it so fingers crossed it'll keep going till I can afford a new rig!

I will never give up my rx480

I have one of these I ended up never using because I didn't realize my power supply wouldn't handle it. By the time I decided to build a whole new PC, I ended up having enough saved up to get an RTX 3080. Video cards were super hard to find at the time so I decided to hold on to the 1080 in case of emergency. Do graphics cards matter much in something like a dedicated Minecraft or 7 Days to Die server? If so, I might build one with it.

Ha! Just ordered a few new components yesterday! So long, beloved 1080, you were da real MVP o/

Only reason I recently moved from that very card was to play with stable diffusion, otherwise yeah the 'need' to boost things for games and whatnot just isn't there. Might be just that I''ve never been a major twitch type gamer though, more Civ/StarCraft style.

Edit: my dumb, was actually a 1650S I last switched from. Pretty sure the before that was a 760TI and probably mixed it up somewhere between them

I'm still gaming on a 1070. That being said I don't play graphically demanding games much and my monitors are 2.5k 60fps.

💀 what goshdarn movie is this from

My 980 still plays anything I want fine

You don't need more for d2r and it's the newest game anyone needs to be playing.

I was running a 1050 (it was a laptop, if I had a desktop I might have upgraded sooner) until a few months ago. I only wanted to upgrade if games just wouldn't run anymore even on low settings.

I was running a 750ti until a few months ago.

Finally had to bid it adieu this year. Probably should have years ago, to be honest.

*980Ti

i have some 2009 ordi prebuilt, but i very recently got an ThinkPad T495 (2026 Linux will be installed on my laptop)

Just replaced my trusty 1080 non TI with a 7800XT. Thanks for carrying me through the GPU drought, you were da real MVP. I even installed an extra case fan, directed at the GPU to support it's wee fans during the dark times.

Hah, miss me with that shit :3 I havie 750 ^^ ... T-T

I fucking love my 1080ti and I will never, ever get rid of it. It's part of my first custom gaming PC and I have promised to frame it whenever the time comes I can't use it anymore.

My 1070 is doing fine, thank you very much. I haven't felt any need to replace it.
