1080ti still going strong, can't be effed with 40 series

[hypercybermegatron]

I was considering a graphics card upgrade with the new 40 series, but don't see the point.

1080ti performance is comparable to 3060, granted with no ray tracing, and depending on resolutions. 40 series is a performance leap but not worth the ridiculous prices that are expected, and it's odd to me that the 4090ti was released before other 40 series cards. Now that EVGA has left the game seems like things will only get worse for buyers.

If buying a new card for a new build sure 40xx makes sense. But as for upgrading, trying to find excuses to upgrade but there's no compelling reason to do it as 1080ti is still king, when considering the price paid for it.

Okay? eredeti hozzászólása:

Are you living in a jungle? Rtx 3060 is 350-400 euros on my craigslist. 430-480 euros brand new.

A xx60 card would still be in the 200-250 price range if bitcoin miners hadn't inflated the prices back when the GTX 10 series came out, so Nvidia realising people will pay anything they ask, have never dropped the price to normal levels.

Moreover, if community settle for these prices, GReedia will continue to increase the price point bit by bit every generation due to yet-another "game changer tech".

If gamers really stand for themselves and not fall as in (i have money and buy it whatever NVIDIA asks, f**k the community and prices) p(l)andemic times, those prices will come down. Surely back to normal.

Most new games suck anyways so no need for better hardware, nothing to play on it anyways.

1080ti performance is not really comparable to a 3060, the 1080ti is actually a lot better, mainly because it is a old generation flagship card and the 3060 is a new generation budget/avarage entry card...

The 3060 is the first card not made by nvidia, they just provided the chip. It came after the 3070, 80 and 90. I got this one.

KFA2 GeForce RTX™ 3060 EX (1-Click OC Feature)
12GB GDDR6 192-bit DP*3/HDMI/

The card has raytracing and nvidia dlss. And can run cyberpunk at 60 fps at 1920x1080 with everything maxed out. It can even pull, fallout 4 with debris on.

I suggest you 1080ti fanboys to compare it to my version.

I never owned a 1080ti and I think it was overpriced..
But look up any data and you will see my claim is rather solid.. or do you seriously wanna dispute that the 3060 is a budget/avarage card

I highly doubt a 3060 in a balanced build, being able to run everything maxed out in Cyberpunk 2077, mainly because of two factors.

Ray Traycing and the rather unstable coding.

I was running my 1080Ti until a few months ago and picked up a 3080Ti. Huge upgrade IMO. The 1080Ti sits in a box in the closet now. Can't even give it away nobody wants a 1080Ti.

[isomorphic_projection]

Who cares if the 3060 is a budget card, it's still better then the 1080ti.

I’m surprised my GTX 750 Ti still works. It’s a very very old card but can play GTA 5 in 60fps 1080p in Medium Settings.

SUPERB!

That card was a pioneer in energy efficiency with its Maxwell Architecture.

How about GTX 285? I seems pretty good.

Still chillin' here with a RTX 2060 Super, Might upgrade next year, I dunno yet.

I agree. I don't see myself upgrading in the near future since none of the upcoming games interest me in the slightest.

Actually, the games side of this is part of my lack of motivation to spend on a new card. I mean, besides RE Village there's not much on my radar from the past 2 years that I could see myself getting excited about.

I miss that feeling about being hyped for a game, it hardly ever happens anymore!

The GTX 1060 was released with an MSRP of $250, so card prices definitely aren't at an all-time low right now.

A 1060 card? I'm not talking about the 10x series, I'm talking about 3060. It's so damn cheap at 350 euros it's laughable.

Did you see RTX4090 price? Dirt Cheap.

well, if you're happy with 1080p, the card is probably still fine for a long time.

I started playing in 4k when I got the 3080 and don't really wanna go back to playing in 1080 or 1440p.
the problem is, that the 3080 is not fast enough for some games in 4k with ultra settings, so I'll probably get a 4080.

Im aware that the prices are ridiculous tho, but if you're addicted to graphics in high resolutions, there's not really an alternative...
