System requirements :

OS: Windows 10 (64 bit)
Processor: AMD Ryzen 3 1200 / Intel Core i5-7500
Memory: 8 GB RAM
GPU: AMD Radeon RX 560 with 4GB VRAM / NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti with 4GB
DirectX: Version 12

Yeah, this is a true A-A-A game. You won.
well there is this new game that came out https://store.steampowered.com/app/1245620/ELDEN_RING/ and even it's max card is a gtx 1070

RECOMMENDED:
OS: Windows 10/11
Processor: INTEL CORE I7-8700K or AMD RYZEN 5 3600X
Memory: 16 GB RAM
Graphics: NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX 1070 8 GB or AMD RADEON RX VEGA 56 8 GB
DirectX: Version 12

I'm talking A-A-A games.
You were bragging about your "high end 1080 TI" and 4K resolution and all you're showing are games like Elden Ring, Resident Evil and Subnautica.

I can run all these games with my old R9 270 too.

What about blockbusters ? What about Cyberpunk, Ac Valhalla, Legions, Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020, Red Dead Redemption 2, Control and all those games ?

How do these games perform on 1440p and 4K. You know what I mean ? A 1080TI isn't capable of such things anymore.

What if OP wants Ray Tracing ?
What if he wants DLSS ?

Why don't you speak just for yourself ?
There are many people here who even use much older GPU's than you do and you don't seem them speaking for other people. Everyone owns a GPU for his needs and nobody doubts that your 1080 TI is enough for you own needs but why the hell wouldn't you mention this at the very beginning ?

i'd say a 1080ti is high end for the most point, but deepening on what type of 1080 it is.

it could last for a long time, as there isn't no game i can't run on max settings with a 1080ti,
so op should be fine for some time, with a 1080

YOU are fine with it. Speak for YOURself and try to help OP.
Ask him at least which games he wants to play.

no i wasn't,as they are a.a.a, and two i wasn't, i said nothing about in running 4k well, i said it was made for it and can run it, im basing a sym off how well it runs in res's if you misunderstand that's on you.

and no i don't use 4k i use 1080p so again you've got that wrong.

they are newer games as your post asked for even if elden ring is fixed to 60fps it's still new and a, a\a\a and so is resident evil village

also if he needs or would like to use rtx tech then he'd be going for a rtx card if not there isn't a need as of yet

also no Red Dead Redemption 2 isn't a aaa game and one from 2018 and Cyberpunk you gotta be joking, when that came out, no one not even with the best cpu and the best gpu could run that well.

and last but lest that's not what he asked, he asked if it'd be fine to keep using it or upgrade, and the card is fine to keep using there is no game it can't run as of yet, unless the game is fully made for rtx.

there you go https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Zmkd-nK2SA

Can you stop full quote comments ? What kind of a language translator are you using ?
I really don't know where to start and to be honest, I don't even understand half the things you're saying.
It seems that you don't even know yourself what you're talking about. There are more than enough people who called you out for your bullsht.

Talking to a dry wall would make more sense than doing this here. I wish you the best.

Well, I've found this thread to be somewhat reassuring.

Nice to know others are in a similar boat, just kind of hanging there waiting for the right time, even if it's a year or years from now. It's "OK" to still have a gtx 1080.
Why wouldn't it be, unless you yourself already naturally came to the conclusion yourself?

You don't need someone else to tell you it's good or isn't good, which is sort of my initial post in this thread to OP was saying the same thing that it matters not what anyone thinks. Some arbitrary measure, like what it's termed as, is the most silly thing to hinge "is it still good enough" on. And that is what matters, not some label. It doesn't matter how much performance it offers versus what is possible through what is available in newer products; it matters what it offers relative to the demand you ask of it. And, if it's still holding up and you haven't naturally come to the impression that you want more, then nothing else matters.

Relative to the a snapshot limited to the latest generation, it's firmly mid-range at worst as it compares roughly to the RTX 3060 which is firmly THE mid-range each generation. You might consider it lacks tensor cores for RTX and DLSS and thus situate a bit lower I guess, but still.

Relative to what the market actually looks like in reality though, despite what is available, it offers a level of performance that puts it in a far higher percentile than the aforementioned perspective may lead one to believe. When most people have things like GTX 1050s, GTX 1650s, GTX 1060s, etc., and the GTX 1080 is something like twice the performance of best of those, and still plays games very well if you're not after 4k and/or no compromises, then there's certainly an argument it offers a relatively "high end experience" if you're not being semantic about it.

In other words, the level of performance a GTX 1080 offers when compared to the latest and greatest will result in it being placed quite down the stack, but the performance offered is, despite that, above what most people have and therefore above what most games need now, and likely will for some time. It's mostly if you're after uncompromising visual, higher resolutions, or higher frame rates in more demanding titles that you might want to upgrade. The gaming market has already been trending towards less, not more, for YEARS now, and few games are going to ask for hardware the market doesn't have because, you know, that means lost sales. So, yeah, unless you already came to the conclusion it's not enough, then yeah, it's still okay. You'll know the day it isn't.
I just think hes had enough of your nonsense. Thats why I instantly deleted my comment some hours ago cause I knew exactly whom Im dealing with. I dont need the drama.

You dont make any sense and its really hard to follow you. You got almost all your facts wrong, beginning with the RTX features which you would call " trash ", all over to the performance gap between the 1000 and 3000 series.
Im sure your 1080TI fullfills all your needs and why shouldnt it ? Its a great card and it fits to the games youre playing but this wasnt the point of this thread was it ?

No matter how old it gets, or how many new series comes out, it will always be 'high end'. I think many people here have no idea what these hierarchy terms even mean. Fun fact, it is a hierarchical system for categorizing the gpu within their respective architecture.
Who cares if the 1080 Ti was top dog 6 years ago? I'd chalk that up to just being stuck in the past, or trying to scam people when selling a 1080 Ti, 980 Ti, etc.

What matters isn't the hiearchy within its own generation, but what it actually compares to RIGHT NOW, that's what people care about. It's slower than a 3060 Ti, and doesn't have RT. It used to be a high end GPU, now it isn't, it's mid-range in the actual pecking order. Anyone saying otherwise is just making excuses to feel better about having one, or again, trying to scam someone. Some people do sell off low end components as high end to scam the ignorant.

You're using hierarchical system terms, which are objective, so yeah it does matter that you are using it wrong. I understand why, though. Just like how so many people refer to current generation of hardware as "next gen". You hear these terms and don't know exactly what they mean, so you come up with a subjective meaning.

Related side note, I hate that humans develop "slang". Makes for learning other languages a PITA.

You're avoiding the whole point, which is still that people don't care if something was high end 5+ years ago, it's not anymore in the bigger picture because there's better products out. It might be the flagship from its generation, but to call it high end nowadays is misleading, because it's only slightly faster than a 3060. Nobody cares about the 1080 Ti anymore, its power isn't special anymore. By next gen, it'll be lower end, probably slightly better than the RTX 4050.

Using fancy terminology doesn't mean that the 1080 Ti is *still* a high end GPU. It's not anymore. The hardware pecking order changes every generation, high end GPUs older than Maxwell aren't even considered entry level anymore. They lack the power and VRAM.

You're missing the point that you are taking objective terms and using them subjectively.

I get it, you want to use some words to describe relative performance. Nothing wrong with that. However, doesn't change the fact that they have objective meaning.

...but again, nothing wrong with doing so. I just wanted to get the subjective terms out there, as many people don't understand the hierarchical system. Get the brain juices flowing, per say.

They don't really need to for older generations, what's relevant is newer. People use that exact subjective terminology to scam people.

It's nothing that helps anyone, leave it at that. That's not what they're looking to know.

Well, I disagree. If they can learn what "high end" truly means, then they can use this knowledge to understand that it is meaningless when comparing performance metrics and not get scammed.

Instead of using terms that actually have an objective meaning completely wrong, why not just categorize them on performance? Just say "GTX 1080 is relative to RTX 3060 performance"? When you start using terms that already have objective meaning, and try to give it your own subjective meaning, that is exactly why people will get confused and scammed.

again you misunderstood the 30rtx is ♥♥♥♥ loads better with rtx tech.

what i was calling junk, or a waste of time was from the rtx 20th series

qt from my post at the point rtx 20 was ♥♥♥♥, the Rtx tech wasn't any good at the time, it was later it improved upon in the 30th gen making it lots better for those that like to use it qt

i do think the 30th series is really good,a real big improvement.

but for the op's case it's better to wait for the 40th series.

mayhaps it'll be cheaper or be more then 50% better over all

but at any rate i do think we all agree that the, 1080 non ti is still good to be used for one more year at lest, or so i think, unless im wrong:manthinking:

ps you deleted your post i did mine as well to all fairness

better no, faster yes
rtx cards have shortcuts to do it quicker

a gtx 1080 is as fast as a rtx 3060, even at rt tasks

This is factually incorrect, a 1080ti does not have tensor or rt cores and doesn't even outperform a 2060 in actual rt accelerated workloads such as Optix. This does not make the 1080ti a bad card for the majority of games as they don't utilize modern APIs like Vulkan, but when API support is there you can realize a massive performance uplift through DLSS and other hardware acceleration.

There are arguments to be had about whether a 1080ti is worth upgrading from if the games you play don't utilize Vulkan or latest DX12, but raw FP/Shader performance is becoming all the less valuable of a metric with performance gains largely coming from offloading tasks to dedicated compute units.
1080 Ti is also barely faster than the 3060 in most games, only a few frames here and there which actually makes it ironic that the 3060 "doesn't have the actual power" to push all 12GB considering the 1080 Ti is basically the same and that was never said
