[@jericosangbaan4688]

I remember when this came out, it was a dream card for. I only had a budget for a gtx 1070. Fast forward 2020, I got myself a 1080ti, and it was night and day. Ripped Cyberpunk2077 on that thing, paired with an x99 motherboard (Core i7 5930k) and that guzzled a lot of power lol. Now running a 3070, the 1080ti is still here, boxed and is in my shelf, displayed as a retired warrior lol

[@slavvodkaman9359]

[@Christian0132]

I had a 1070 super until Friday of last week. It was a fantastic card, everything I wanted to play ran well and at solid settings till 2022. I don’t think i’ll ever have a card last that long ever again

[@aero2629]

bless this card fr, went from 750ti on lga 1155 to 1080ti on lga 2011-3 a lil while ago and the upgrade feels massive, thought about going ryzen at the time but even 2nd-3rd gen stuff costed more than x99 at the time

[@ProYamYamPC]

X99 is legendary too! Nice system

[@SyncF]

I love to see X99 love, I got a 6900k on a custom loop, and ran a 1080Ti with an Arctic Xtreme III on it, for years, hell, even mined with it for 8 months straight, now this is my rig I brought to my vacation home, so I can keep playing Elden Ring on it. Upgraded to a 7900XTX tho, gotta clean my 1080Ti, it's a champion.

[@Hughesburner]

I have a had a few the same STRIX model , GTX 1060 and 1070ti, wonderful cool and quiet cards, just large. The 1080ti is still hard to find in my market without paying up for it. It tell me that they are still getting used or are being kept in secondary PC's.

[@ProYamYamPC]

That sounds about right, I imagine a lot of people are very hesitant to sell a 1080 Ti. I know for a fact I'll never sell mine

[@kenn22]

This is a perfect video No screaming No loud distracting music Calming voice Just perfect🤙🏽

[@reset1101]

I wish Nvidia (and AMD for that matter) made more of these "mistakes". I had that exact same model. And I had it for more than 3 years, until the 3080 was released. Which is saying a lot, since sometimes I change GPU more ofthen than underwear

[@ProYamYamPC]

I upgraded to a 3080 too. I honesly believe the 3080 will also receive the goat status sometime soon

[@BadBoy11m]

CAN U TRY GTX 1080 Ti VS 3060 12GB IN GAMES

[@durbledurb3992]

Well done with another professional video, but the 1080ti was not a mistake. It was what was correct performance for what was considered a premium price at time, while allowing the company to make more than enough profit to further their product lines, as we can all see today. Now they are trying to run the electronic world into the ground for a dollar from the success of the 10 series, make no mistake.

[@shockcrew5275]

It's a shame that the 16 series never got something similar, but they used the same architecture as the 20 series and the 2080-ti was a nice leap. I guess they used lower quality Turing chips with no RT cores so they wouldn't go to waste.

[@pcbencher9593]

Running a 3080 Strix 12gb and honestly it’s a cracking card for 1440p 170hz.. granted it doesn’t hit that frame rate often in newer games but it’s pretty much always at least 100fps..

[@MrFIRESEAL117]

I'm wondering if I should upgrade from my Asus GTX 1080 TI to play Black Myth Wukong. 🤔

[@alexandrumihailescu2252]

If you already own one there ain't much point buying one but if you're planning to upgrade from an older GPU a 12 gb RTX 3060 can be bought as cheap as £190 on eBay nowadays

[@rushgameing3085]

I had a 1060 2 years ago and it could still reach 60fps on most titles at 1080p high. Then I got a 6800XT next and it runs 1440p medium/high with frames around 100 on most titles and dips to 70 ish on demanding titles like cyberpunk with my i5 13600k. The 1080ti is even better than what I had it’s a excellent card for a budget build still

[@Alpha-ms9nj]

I have a GTX 1070 on the way to test out and have been looking for a GTX 1080 or preferably the Ti version. I'm currently using a GTX 980Ti paired with a I5-10600K system and it is awesome.

[@ruinfox4108]

i just want to ask Im still using a GTX 1080 Ti to this day, currently using a 1080p 144hz monitor and with the Ryzzen 5 7600x i can play pretty much all my games just fine, but ive always wanted to make the jump to 1440p, i was wondering if you have ever tried to benchmark the game Rainbow Six: Siege? they have a reall good benchmark statistics screen and would really appreciate if you have the game if you could run a quick benchmark and let me know. That game is the only competitive game i play and really the only game in general play nowadays.

[@ProYamYamPC]

Siege is super easy to run on the low preset. You won’t have any issues at 1440p with the 1080 Ti mate. I’ve tested it a lot in the past so I have a pretty good gauge of where the 1080 Ti will perform. I’ve tested the regular 1080 at 4K and that got around 130 FPS. You’re good at QHD with a 1080 Ti mate.

[@hb-hr1nh]

Had 2 msi 1080ti cards in SLI for about 5 years until SLI support started disappearing. Then I got gtx 2080ti, paid to much for it. The price to performance ratio was disappointing compared to the 1080ti.

[@tek_lynx4225]

Not even close, their greatest mistake was the geforce 5800 ultra and if the new 5000 series is actually called 5000 I'll believe it when I see it as they still have not officially named blackwell.

[@Pillokun]

I dont agree, it was quite expensive when it launched and older much cheaper cards from both amd and nvidia are still working to this date. when pascal ie 10 series launched u could get gtx 970 for 140-180€, and gtx 980 for 220€ and the hawaii amd gpus for even less. 140€-180€ for 290/x and 180-240 for 390/x and they like I said still work pretty well a decade later.

[@cyclonous6240]

I'm glad that I had this mistake for $300 in 2022. This was my dream GPU back then. Still a great GPU!

Rx 5700xt or 1080ti . I am torn 😂

[@WeatherMan2005]

i wish i had one of theise over my 1060

[@DistractedTrader]

I dont think it was a mistake. I think it was a cost they were willing to incur in order to smash out the amd tic-for-tac marketshare. Other than the RX480 - the whole market had to jump into pascal for the performance and value. Turing was a planned dud and then they absolutely blew AMD out with Ampere. Problem is, AMD caught back quite well in the mid tear market. So It might be an interesting two years for Nvidia value to performance (In a good way). The only thing that hinders this is the profit nvidia is making from AI. So the next gen may also give way some marketshare to amd. That means the true brother to the 1080ti might be born in 2027.

[@jlmpc8733]

while the 1080 ti was a legendary card, buying it used makes no sense. The titan xp is better (its basically a 1080 ti with a fully featured core) and costs less, cuz it doesnt have the status, adn yeah, the higher end models sometimes beat the titan xp cuz of oc, but you can OC the titan xp aswell :D

[@marknewellmusic]

Don't forget that extra 1GB of VRAM on the Titan Xp - literally means RDR2 at 4K max settings will run smooth as needs more than 11GB of VRAM

[@ProYamYamPC]

I am planning on finding a TITAN Xp, but on the used market in the UK, they're scarce and more expensive than the 1080 Ti. The reason why higher end 1080 Ti models are faster is due to the cooling potential. My strix model will happily sit at 1960MHz all day long.

[@marknewellmusic]

@@ProYamYamPC Look, stop messing around 🤣 You and I both know you are after the Star Wars versions, hence the delay...

[@SyncF]

@@ProYamYamPC I went with an Arctic Xtreme III and did liquid metal on the core of my 1080Ti, it sits at 2080Mhz 24/7 now at less than 46 celsius even on high resolution. It's been running like that for like 4 years till I changed cards. It's still alive. Legendary card that can be pushed to its absolute limits.

Idk where ur finding this for 150 all I’ve been seeing was 200 or more that’s why I settled with a gtx 1070

[@fallin5427]

Been watching a little bit too much Iceberg Tech?

[@Jumbob]

Nvidia doesnt give a shit about gamers anymore. They earn so much more from AI. I dont think the gtx 1080 ti was a mistake because it beat amd cards easily and was a really good card for long and people wanted nvidia back then for that reason. I believe it still affects the gpu market, 90% bought gpus are nvidia, even tho for average buyer AMD would be better. And this is thanks to gtx 1080 ti and the choices that they did in 2017, 2018.

[@chien.nguyen.]

The cost of DLSS, FG, AI, RT will make you never have a GTX 1080ti a second time. But honestly speaking they are right to pursue these technologies but the results are still not acceptable compared to the cost. the cost to get it, it probably takes a few more generations of RTX, the same goes for RT in just a few years it will be the standard for all games and be chosen as the only highlight of the game, gpu doesn't have RT like that. meaning trash, you won't be able to stop the RT wave because all game developers want it, reducing development time the most time consuming job, costs, that's something no one can deny cancel.

I should hope a 3060 is at least on par with it. For an example, the 1060 is faster than the 780 Ti

[@marknewellmusic]

@@ProYamYamPC interesting about the 1060/780ti... I never realised. I did notice that the RTX 590 was about equal to a 1060. I've gotta ask - did you buy that 690 due to my request or did you already have it? When I posted the comment it was about the GTX 680 4GB, then you uploaded about the 690 so you got me wondering if my comment about the 680 4GB resulted in your 690 purchase.
