o-oh no!?
That's nice. I am not upgrading my 1080 until the energy production scam stops.
>>728986725Rip.Glad I got a 5080 last month. 1080Ti to 5080.
>>728986725Linux still has support heehee
>>728986725>Unc GPUsYou need at least a 4060 in 2026. In fact 8gb of vram isn't enough for all unoptimized games aka every modern western AAA slop
>>728988320Well that's good. 1080Ti has 11GB.
Realistically what does this mean? I don’t play new stuff. Will my gpu still be ok for a while? I have a 1080
>>728986725the only good games seem to coincidentally not require a high end gpu so who cares
>>728988415new games might bitch about your GPU, but since all new games are now kill due to no GPUs, RAM or SSDs it's a non-issue
>>728988557honestly I don't even know what new drivers really do.Doom the Dark Ages bitched at me for not updating my drivers, so I did.Game began freezing every 5-10 minutes of gameplay.Reverted back to my 6 month old drivers, ignored the game whining when I boot it up, and the game ran flawlessly.
>>728988415Basically nothing right now. And likely nothing for years to come. Unless the way we render games changes dramatically, there's not going to be anything preventing the cards from doing so.What it means really is that if a game comes out and due to Nvidia's drivers it runs like shit on a Pascal card, Nvidia won't fix it.
Couldn't care less. I don't play games on launch anyway and I switched to studio drivers like a year ago for Superior stability
>>728988632most of the item it's just timestamp check and it'll complain about a mismatch. it's not actually checking functionality
>>728986725>tf upgraded in july from 1060 to 5060ti 16gb
Meanwhile, I'm still running a 1050 TI.
>>728988024>>728988776How much did that cost? I might upgrade soon bacause I'd like to be able to play games made after 2016.
>>728988632new drivers are for new gpus.if you're on a old gpu these drivers are basically useless to you. for example the last real driver for rtx 4000 was LAST YEAR. these new drivers are straight up worse fps or more issues for your card that dont exist on 5080 or 5070ti.
Why are 1080s still 200 dollars on ebay
do you guys think 6xxx will exist? I think nvidia will completely drop geforce soon enough to go full server grade GPUs
>>728988959Cost me £900 and came with a £60 steam wallet code.
>>728989152anon all these cpus & gpus you get for your gaming rig are datacenter leftovers. that X3D cpu everyone raves about? its just cut down epyc milan.
>>728989152Even if they gonna make it, it will be less rendering core and more AI core. You'll love the fake frames and you will like it. No more powerful gpu anymore
>>728986725With all the RAM price hike, is there still hope for 24 GB VRAM 5070 Ti Super? Are there official specs? All I can find are just rumors and speculations.
>>728989152Absolutely. Yes, Nvidia is absolutely all-in on AI right now but there's always going to be GPUs that don't bin high enough for a workstation card and end up as gaming GPUs.But, more than that, whilst Nvidia's gaming revenue has shrunk relative to it's workstation and AI markets, it's still a huge amount of money.
>>728989392Super is cancelled.Even then its a waste of money. All you're getting is more vram and thats it. No extra speed.
>>728989439fuck meI wanted the extra RAM for AIand can't afford 5080/5090
>>728986725 Its not like the future games will immediately get unplayable without newer driver.You will still get a year or two with old drivers. As long Ray Tracing isnt mandatory, 10 Series still can play new games.t still have v566.36 driver here and i can play Marvel Rivals just fine
>>728989505If all you want is vram there's a shit ton of 24gb options available. When you say AI you mean inference which only cares about vram capacity.
>>728986725>win10 support ended before nvidia pulled support for this series of GPUsCrazy
>>728989652That picture..
>>728989679Okay, I want it for vidya too. So none of that 3 generations old, used server graphics cards.From the RTX line right now it's pretty much 5090s only that have 24 GB VRAM and they cost a fortune.I don't want AMD because they have much worse compatibility with AI stuff due to lack of CUDA support.
Most people stick to older drivers anyways and if anything catastrophic happens it still gets patched
>>728989868>I don't want AMD because they have much worse compatibility with AI stuff due to lack of CUDA support.Not only is this outdated but also wrong.Anon you sound clueless actually. You want to pay $500 extra for PCIE because you can't use ZLUDA?
>>728989868Retarded jit I bet you use Speccy.
>>728989868>5090s only that have 24 GB VRAM>I don't want AMD because they have much worse compatibility with AI stuff due to lack of CUDA support.you are a retarded techlet, just stick to generating from the cloud you clown
>>728990000nta but AMD is still shit for productivity purpose, whenever its CAD/Animation/AIslops
>>728988320nobody wants to play modern AAA shit man
1080ti + 5800x3d is good enough for text coom
>>728990268Well unfortunately I play scam citizen in VR which is very demanding, wanted to upgrade when the single player releases but the RAM bullshit happened so I have to stick with 4090 and DDR4 until this shitshow passes.
>>728991474>well unfortunately I'm clinically retarded
>>728988776my waifu
>>728991518Better a retard than a faggot like you.
So my GTX 970 is useless? Fucking kikes
>>728991620hm... seems like you're projecting with such a random insult.
>>728991651thats an 11yo GPU with 3.5gbs of VRAM, its been useless for a while
>>7289898685090 has 32gigs retard
>>728989152Years ago I remember reading someone saying the 4000 line was Nvidia starting to bow out of gaming hardware, commenting on how it barely had any real performance upgrade compared to the 3000 line, and the only improvements were in the DLSS (ai) software, and the 5000 line was likely to be Nvidia's final gaming hardware. Like they were pointing out how we saw EVGA /quit and all that side of the biz is done YEARS in advance...if EVGA was out, was Nvidia planning their outIt's looking more and more like that predicition was accurate and Nvidia won't have a 6000 line thanks to the OpenAI scam being a money printer for them. They don't need to do shit anymore but keep tricking governments in to giving them trillions of dollars on vague promises of how this'll be profitable somehow in the future.
>3070I mean, it works with almost everything except maybe re4remake.Maybe I should pick up a 4080?
>>728988776>5060ti >16gbI thought they didn't want to make 3060 mistake again?
GET FUCKED 1080 FAGS
>>728986725Why would you need driver updates for those cards, it's not like they can run modern games that push graphic fidelity
>>728991864Even after Nvidia abandons gaming I bet we'll still see Nvidia cultists for the next decade still swearing by using Nvidia for gaming.
isnt like 40% of steam users are on 1660?
Do yall ENJOY getting your backs blown out by Jewsen Huang while he makes trillions cucking your GPUs to data centers and gives you cut down sloppy seconds like a bottom bitch?Time to switch to team red, my 7900 XTX has been going strong with 24GB of VRAM for 3 years and counting. Just say no to fake frames and price gouge slop, return to gaming nirvana.
>>728992865yes, but that's because most of pc users are laptop and prebuilt fags.
>>728988105Not for Maxwell and Pascal, the open drivers are for later models
>>7289892135060tis are like 500$ even now now lmao wtfff
>All the NvidiaCucks being proud of jumping off old Nvidia cards because they are ending support, to then get a new Nvidia cardsIt's like a cosmic joke
>>728990084Nigger look into quadro cards some of them are pretty cheap and have higher ram and arent even that old
> That time when Nvidia made a graphics card that was just too good and wouldn't die, unless they had to cut off driver support. Yup.
>>728989152My conspiracy theory is that nvidia will drop consumer gpus but will work with intel to keep amd in check.
>>728986725Good news is that Arkham Asylum, Arkham City and Arkham Origins all don't have the issues of the physx support anymore and countless other games. Practically all of the games are playable with physx. With something bad came something good. At least for me since i wanted to play the Batman games again. I'm glad i don't have to hang onto an old Nvidia card just if i ever want to play these games again with their proper features in tact.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fXGyFsQ8rdc
>>728993081>quadroAre you stuck in 2012 ??
>>728987957, anyway>>728992950Why do you need 24GB of VRAM for gaming? You don't need more than 8 to 12 for games unless you're using meme tech like gaytracing and other shit. There are so few games that even warrant upgrading from a 1080 that it's simply not worth it, especially since a lot of them are CPU intensive rather than GPU.
>>728988415for old gpus literally no difference, if anything it's good because new drivers on older gpus tend to just make things worse.
>>728993239Jesus christ you sound like an actual marketer. Physx is part of a larger Nvidia strategy to cuck gamers like you wouldn't believe, jesus christ. They will squeeze in whatever value add in your peanut brains to sell cards at the expense of the industry as a whole.Same things with the AMD day 1 support. You guys realize that this all started because of the same strategy 2 decades ago. So now people are pissed at AMD, because you got completely fooled by Nvidia. Even "consumer right advocate" channels like Gamernexus falls for this shit.It's like telling people to wake up in the truman show. 90 % of are so far gone it's not even funny.
>>728988105lol, lmao
>>728993907>Jesus christ you sound like an actual marketerWhy don't you shut the fuck up retard? I have a 50 series card and I'm just glad i can go back and play a game that i like that it was previously preventing me from doing so without a shit framerate. I'm not happy about what transpired of the phsyx phase out and all i wanted was to have the fucking games still supported. There's no excusing that it ever stopped working and it was never praise towards Nvidia. But now it works and I'm happy that it works.
>>728986725joke's on you my gpu drivers are from 2023
>5090 >9800 x3d>64 gb of ram>10 tbs of ssds
>>728986725ITS TIME TO UPGRADE GRANDPA
>>728986725The fuck does my GTX950 need new drivers for? The newest game I play is 15 years old unless you want to count AoE2:DE as newer than that. Also I use Linux.
>>728988320Just don't play neph games
I upgraded to a 9070 XT from my old 3080 10 GB the other day, they were on sale. It's not a night and day difference but it's definitely nice. Having 16 GB of VRAM might be a big deal going forward, we'll have to see.FSR 4 upscaling unironically looks better than DLSS 4 and the price:performance ratio annihilates any NVIDIA option. Adrenaline is... It's a side grade from the NVIDIA app. You can do more stuff in it but it feels a little bloated. Still no worse.I don't think I'd say anyone with a 3080 equivalent or above has to go out and buy a new card right now. Below a 3070, though, and I think if you can get a decent price it might be worth it, if you play anything demanding anyway.
>>728995203No demanding game is worth playing.
>>728995203My 9070XT is in the mail, hopefully i'll feel the difference a bit more since i'm upgrading from a 3070TI
>>728994993Damn, I need to upgrade my SSD storage. Are SSD prices getting fucked now too?
>>728995324You don't need to upgrade your storage anon. You need to delete shit you don't fucking use.
>>728995361You haven't contradicted my point that no demanding game is worth playing you stupid cunt. You didn't even try to.
>>728995359I can't bring myself to deleting games :(So I need more and more terabytes.
>>728988320I have one and there are like 10 games that will give you trouble.Also Nvidia driver's have never been worse
>>728995361how many modern games can you play with your voodoo card from 1997
>>728995532Out of all the examples you could have used this is the worst one.AMD GPUs are starting to get almost 20 year community driver support. The amount of cuck you guys are exuding is unreal.
>>728986725What leather jacket man gonna do?Come to my house and steal my 1080ti?
>>728998146no, he would pay todd howard to do it for him
