Still no reason to upgrade.
>>729857973I wonder if you can still get one of these somewhere in good condition obviously
>>729857973Bro your reflections in muddy puddles?
>>729857973i just upgraded my 1080ti to 5060ti, 1440p 144fps outside of playing doom mods is pretty good
>>729857973How old is it? How do you know it's not on its last legs?
>>729857973The 4090 will be the new 1080ti in the next years mark my words
>>729857973>no ray accelerators which are required by a few games>no dlss
>>729857973It's good if you still game at 1080p, it starts falling apart at 1440p really hard.
>>729857973Replaced the fans on this baby for noctua ones and its still good I did end up getting a 4070 ti super but 1080 ti lasted a lot longer able to run newer games quite well
>>729858575>consumes twice the power and literally melts
>>729858610>>no ray accelerators which are required by a few gamesonly by doom the dark ages
>>7298579739060xt is the eternal graphics card
>>729857973Just upgraded to 5070tiI like knowing I have a solid backup. 8 years of use behind it with no issues.Kept it maintained, made sure I never run it hotter than 70 degrees. Still no issues touch wood.
>>72985882680c is completely fine for 1080ti, the default target temp is 83-84c anyway and the card is designed to be ran at those temps. makes basically no difference for the lifespan
i got a gtx 1080 and a gtx 1070i basically abandoned PC and went all in on switch 2i dont really like new games besides fromsoft stuff
>>729858967>the consoomer never discovered indiesWhat's even more grim is that 1080 is perfectly capable of running all of them not done in UE5
>>729857973I loaned my 1080 to my sister and i think she gave it away to her friend without asking me
>>729858760indiana jones and the great circle. the number is only going to increase.
>>729859035i thought you said game and not an embarrassing movie
>>729858996i dont give a FUCK about indies anymore. i would rather play TRIPLE AAA games of yesteryear like asuras warth or banjo nuts and bolts
>>729859150>anymoreYou never played them to begin with
>>729857973Can't play Indiana Jones and the Great Circle.
>>729858242Ebay probably. Its a gamble but I've bought two perfectly fine used cards off there and sold two myself. But even the second hand market is expensive now.
>>729859193i played ftl and hotline miami its whatever
>>729858514How much computer hardware have you actually run into the ground until it stopped working? New stuff is more likely to fault than stuff that's a couple years old, I've only had 1 gpu actually fail on me and that was a 8800 GTS 15 years ago
I got a GTX 1080 and I regret not updating like a year ago. But I'm not going to now with these moon prices. I would rather quit gaming or just play indie stuff
>>729859356gpu and cpu failure before becoming hopelessly obsolete basically doesnt happen if you take even a slight gander at the temperatures every once in a while and act accordingly
i was literally using windows 98 when vista was new i will outlast this gay shit
im glad i got a 5080undervolt that shitwith 32gb ram and a 7800x3dim set for a bit
I have 3070 that i bought like 5y ago. I thpught about bulding new pc last year, but frankly, no of the games that intrested me/i played required more than what I have.I know that /v no-card threads are dickshowing contest that only kids, small ego nolifes and shills attend, but its still ridiculus to me how people can put so much importance in xxxxdol hardwere that translates into 40 more fps or smth.
>>729857973>no reason to upgrade>cries and shits himself when a new game comes out and won't run at max settings in 4k on it
I remember being so jelly of one of my friends who had this card.
>>729860537 Not that anon but I genuinely don't give a shit about 4k and barely play any new games that would need it anyway.1080p with a 60+ fps is where its at.
>>729860537Not op but what game?You know that 90-95%of games that comes out arent aaa slop? You can game 4k perfectly fine with older, indie and good coded games. The only ones that you cant are ue5 jeet outsourced aaa titles. Most of them are some kind of remasters and a few new ones that arent worth your time.Im curious how aaa industry will behave after the gpu, ram and ssd price increase, because the current model of optimization cba are no longer possible if they want to sale their games.I even tried some of more demanding titles from previous year - new MH, indiana jones, still there are much more better games in genere/predecesors that you can play on toster and have better time.Whats its like to be to be shill/corp slave eh? Eating all the shit that your masters expel and give them free advert, just so you can wave your dick in anon thread for some dopamine simulus that you lack so much on a daily basis, that you need to do this kind of shit to feel better about yourself?
>>729861181Thank you for proving my point
>>729861296nta but he proved you wrong lmao, i also wouldve added that anybody with a shitty card knows they cant play on 4k max settings so youre literally just getting mad at things you made up in your own head
>>729861354Yeah the tirade about new games not being optimized and UE5 being jeet slop doesn't come from not being able to run new games on your shitty old "futureproof" GPU
>>729859035>indiana jones and the great circlePretty much the biggest problem I'd have with not having ray tracing is not being able to partake in that delicious Nazi killing action.
>>729859150>or banjo nuts and bolts
>>729860537>>729861296>>729861647>
>>729857973Mine got fried so I had to buy a 3070ti
You wouldn't even able to run RE9 next month
>>729858514>How old is it?Like 8 years old now
>>729857973>Eternalmarket is flooded with dead ones
>>729857973>extends your gpus life by a decadeheh
do not. tell. me. about. forced ray tracing.
>>729866954Mine still works just fine, bought it in 2018 from a mining rig and people told me I'm retarded to do so. I paid like $500 for it and it's going strong.
>>729857973This is pathetic, even now that we all are stucked into the 4th early series as max requirement for any game for the next decade.
>>729867264How do you know it won't fail you when the market prices become already too inflated?
>>729858610>no dlssDo you fags actually use this? Old /v/ would never.
>>729867651Old /v/ didn't have to deal with modern garbage.
>>729867442Are you retarded? The guy bought it in 2018 for $500 and the card served him well. If it dies it dies and he has to shell out some dosh for a new card. What the fuck kind of a question is that? Do you think of graphic card purchase as some sort of investment?
>>729867962Yes
5070 bros, are we toast?Should I just get a 9070XT instead?
>>729867883>it's le current year so you HAVE let ai hallucinate in your facenah fuck that
>>729868153ye
>>729868294Sound like you never used it.
>>729868153>5070why would anyone buy that??? at least the 5060ti has 16GB of RAM, the 5070 is literally the worst of both worlds
>>729868728I still have a 1080p monitor, it should be fine. But now I'm getting le paranoia and le FOMO and rebuying to 9070XT wouldn't be that expensive.
>>729868835What are you even playing at 1080p that 5070 isn't good enough for? Some of you are legit retarded.
>>7298579731000 and 3000 series were my favorite jumps in performance. I loved my 1070 and 3080 at the times.
i can't imagine having a weaker PC that the fucking switch 2
>>729857973Kept it for 8 years but it was time to jump to 4k. Waitfags will get fucked by the upcoming shortage unfortunately
>>729869456What is the gpu equivalent of the Switch 2 anyway? Is it more powerful than the PS4?
>>729869294Same here>960 1070ti 3070ti
You're ENTERING the GPU drought with a GPU that was verifiably not able to play half the games released LAST year.
I upgraded from my faithful soldier 1050 to a 3060 last year, and that shit will serve me for minimum the next 6 years, I play at 1080p and I'm not interested in bloated shit like GTA.
>>729869294I'm glad I skipped the 3000 series. >only 10gb ram when he could've waited one more gen to get 16gb for lessLOL
>>729868728Because anyone with 500 bucks and who isn't a retard won't buy a weaker card just because it has a little extra (and slower) vram
>>729867651this board is nothing but retarded teenagers, so of course they use fake frames, their brains are glazed over with corn syrup so they dont even think its a problem: >>729868470
>>729858514The only components I've ever had failed were stuff I maintained poorly and got dust choked or had some other thing happen to it
>>729859245Is this game good? Nobody talks about it.
>>729869294>and 3000 seriesget that fuck outta here, that's where that ridiculous jump in power consumption started
>>729871252Chips take a lot of abuse before it dies. Even then, it mostly just becomes unstable long before it croaks.
>>729870107Are you retarded? Who is talking about entering with that GPU?
>>729857973>Gets btfo by $100 used AMD cards on the used marketGet a job
>>729874890Which one are you talking about
>rx9060 xt 16 gb for 370.-I'm thinking about it.
>>729857973Important Vulcan features are unsupported so playing DX12 titles on Linux results in a terrible experience
>>729869584No I wont because Imma wait loooong
