Are GTX series video cards capable enough to last the next 6 years?
I'm building a new pc which I'm mostly buying NVIDIA GeForce GTX1080 Ti 11GB card because of my budget value cannot exceed $1 thousand ( R$3-4 mil reais ) and for that I was in doubt between this choice or NVIDIA RTX 2070 SUPER 8GB or NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060, 6GB. But watching how games can be the third choice wouldn't be lasting the next 2 years.

what are you even talking about, there are plenty of new 1080ti's still being sold.
"new" their production stopper ages ago

new, as in unopened box, ie... new and not used.....

yes, you can buy new 1080ti's.

Just stop engaging with monkeymaster, they are just a troll.

As no one could be dumb enough to believe even half the stuff he says.

That you replied suggests otherwise :)

Doesn't mean I'm not right :)

replying isnt the concern, its the weak bait that is in question, go try baiting someone else into arguments.

bye...

It totally depends on what you're looking to do with it, as well as what GTX graphics card it is. A GTX 1080? That's twice as fast as a GTX 1060. Yet there might be cases where a GTX 1080 isn't good enough someone today where they might be cases where a GTX 1060 is good enough for someone 6 years from now. The range is pretty wide, after all.

As someone with a GTX 1060, I'm certainly not going to have it in six years, at least not as my primary graphics card if I still have it at all. Something twice as fast (like a GTX 1080 or between RTX 3050/RTX 3060 in the last generation) might be pushing it six years from now as well. I imagine age, driver support, and other intangibles (warm running, high power consumption for what is then low performance) will be bigger factors for a Pascal era graphics card as opposed to just lacking raw processing speed alone. The high end cards usually provide a decent amount of that even when they're slipping past their time, just not for the original segment of the market that would buy them to begin with. And by that point, a newer, more efficient lower end chip is often better than an aged, used, hot and energy consumer chip.

So I wouldn't say buying a used GTX 1080 would be a bad thing in any possible scenario. Maybe someone finds one for a great price or knows it will be enough for X amount of time and is fine with it. It wouldn't be my first choice even though I currently have only half the processing power, though.

I just gave my 1080 ti away for free, either because I'm a saint or a monster depending on your values.
In what world would someone call anyone a monster for giving something away for free!? I would like to meet this person, haha.

....And if the OP is not willing to go beyond like $400 USD then I highly doubt that person cares at all about 4K.
Good observation. I never bothered...actually still use 19 inches monitor screen. Never played 2k or higher resolutions. I don't give a damn about playing games on high presets unless they are necessary to lock the fps rate or it might overheat or got nuts the game physics in high speed....Fallout 4 for example if going beyond 74 fps, the game physics desynchronize.

Too bad about my hope on GTX 1080 because they are no where to be found unless I risk getting deep on strange sources which I certainly will not or getting a used gpu...again not going happen because is uncertain the durability on used equipment in my country.

My fellow technnician person that I'm client with it for decades. Told me he recently since 2016 when he built my current machine. He now have AMD equipment and keeps repeating or insisting that these Ryzen video cards series are good for gaming. AMD processors that come along with integrated video cards are strong as well to handle games.

But I don't know I keep refusing to use AMD technology since I've been Intel and Nvidia customer for over 15 years. The prices are :steamsalty: if I persist to get Intel i5 10600k and adding NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER or NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 instead of Nvidia geforce GTX 1080 which are rarely to sold anywhere in my country.

I was digging the builds I've selected and came along with a few that got me interested however they always have 1-2 hardware pieces that are not so worth getting due it costs unless I build from the scratch, and only inform to tech person the references on what I want but that would still require to research for good motherboards and power supply.

One question related to Intel i5 10400f, some pointed out the definition F results to processor units that do not have video board integrated.
In my situation I've made terrible decision and meltdown my off board card after continuing to play online games under a operating system outdated with gpu drivers too old. If I had not continue to play that way my previous GTX 750 would continue to live on for a year or more.

What can you Steam users say about this particularIntel i5 10400f processor if I may not be capable to seek the so wished Intel i5 10600k with NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER coming along?
I have couple choices which one of them do have this group:
Draugr Gamer
  • Intel Core i5-10400F
  • Geforce RTX 2060 Super 8 gb
  • 16 gb DDR4
  • SSD 480 gb

stalker 2 which will be an early UE5 game says minimum gpu 1060 6GB. If i had the choise id go with the 2070 for the driver and directx level.

It will last longer than the other two

Yeah, the GTX 1060, GTX 1070 Ti, and GTX 1080 even are sometimes minimum requirement cards now.

RTX 20 series doesn't have anything really for Gaming that GTX 9 / 10 series do not if we throw Ray Tracing and DLSS aside.

Latest Drivers fully supports backwards to GTX 9 series

But yes something like GTX 1060 6GB as a bare minimum for newer games at 1080p does make sense. It can be hard to find RTX 2070 / 2080 though. You can get RTX 2060 for under $250 range; RTX 3060 12GB under $320; RTX 3060 Ti 8GB and 8GB GDDR6X variants for under $400 range. Those are prices for new+unused GPUs. You could of course find some better prices on Ebay and few other places.

Honestly if you want a GPU you buy today to have any real life for you moving forward, then I honestly would not go below a RTX 3060. Unless maybe you getting a really great deal on something like 1080 Ti / 2070 Super / 2080 / 2080 Ti

If you really want to fill a gap on a low budget, then go get a RX 580 or 590 for around $120 or less. Which will give you NVIDIA performance on-par with GTX 1070 / 1080

Ok then I'm research those two and compare with some of the games in the past 2 years and upcoming on what they will be asking about.
Did you by any chance misstyped those Radeon series? Can't find 570 nor 580 models. Only RX Radeon 5700 had a match.
Made a mistake, there are model for old type RX 570 and Radeon RX 5700.

No it's not a mistake.

For example:

Google > AMD RX 580 8GB


At around the time of launch RX 580 4GB or 8GB was around performance level of GTX 1060 6GB; but has surpassed that due to advances in AMD Drivers over the years. So RX 580 is more along the lines of a GTX 1070 nowa days.

Can easily find RX 580 and 590 8GB on Ebay for around $150 or less.
Noted them down and going to study later those from AMD as well:
  • AMD RX 5700 XT
  • AMD Radeon™ RX 6800 XT
  • Radeon™ RX 590
For now going to leave this be. By the way but is it true that Intel and AMD technology can work together without bottleneck or any other difficult? Like using Intel processors and AMD video cards or should I obey the rule to build all of the same manufacturer.
