Any 1080ti homies here?
Best I can do is TI-86.
The graphics card in my laptop lets me play Megabonk and Dead Cells and Shotgun King. Do I need anything more than that?
I mean, terraria, avorion, elden ring, vampire survivors, castle crashers, spiderheck, binding of isaac, few nights more, crying suns (if you're a masochist), ultimate chicken horse, and of course, a party game like keep talking and no one explodes.
1080 but no ti.
Same, I've been saying I'll upgrade when the prices become sane since shortly before the asteroid hit and killed off the dinosaurs.
But, it's amazing how well the 1080 has aged. I can still play most of the games I want to at 1440p while still keeping the frame rate at at least 60 fps average, and only rarely dipping below 40. Admittedly, I sometimes do have to turn down the graphics settings, but not so they're immersionly-breakingly-bad.
My next card will definitely be AMD, but I want to make it a good one. So, I'm annoyed that the 9000 series didn't even have an "enthusiast" tier.
That I agree. I'm eyeing for AMD cards for some time too, especially after Nvidia stopped updating drivers for 10xx series. However if I sell 1080, it can barely cover something similar from AMD, so I'll wait longer it seems since I want this to be an actual upgrade.
Had a 2080 Ti until recently. I've only paid once for a new GPU in my life - a 1070 when we were gonna get millionaires on crypto mining. Gave it to a friend's kid when I found that cheap 2080 Ti.
I've got a 1060 sitting in my server, forever waiting for an upgrade (It'll inherit the 3060ti in my desktop whenever that gets an upgrade)
