    Just like I rode my 1080ti for a long time it looks like I’ll be running my 3080 for awhile lol.

    I hope in a few years when I’m actually ready to upgrade that the GPU market isn’t so dire… All signs are pointing to no unfortunately.

      Same here.

      Only upgraded when my 1080 died, so I snagged a 3080 for an OK price. Not buying a new card untill this one dies. Nvidia can get bent.

      Maybe team red next time….

        I’m still rocking a 2070 and doing great. Turns out the games that I like rarely depend on graphical fidelity, but rather on good visual design and game design.

        But yeah if graphical fidelity is your bag, or if you need every possible frame for competitive reasons, then your options are much more limited and far more expensive. Sucks.

        I’m extremely petty and swore off Nvidia for turning off my shadow play unless I made an account for my 660, had to downgrade my driver to get it back without an account. I only have an Nvidia card now because I got a 3080ti for free after my rx 580 died.

      1060 6GB gang here… I will probably get a 3060 or 4060 next time I uppgrade, unless I ditch Nvidia (thinking of moving to Linux).

        980ti here, playing Cyberpunk 2077 at sufficiently high settings without issues (if you call ~30fps 1440p with no path tracing “without issues”, that is).

        My 1080ti was probably peak Nvidia for me. It was so good, and I was super happy with it. Truely felt like upgrade.

        If you’re still playing at 1080 it’s still a capable card tbh.

        I gave mine to a friend who still had a 660 when I upgraded to the 3080 lol.

          Oh yeah, it still gets the job done.

          Keeping my eyes open for used ones to upgrade with now that the new series is out though. Gives me an excuse to get the 1080 in my server.
