Thanks for watching :) - Věda a technologie
It's amazing that this Nvidia generation has aged so well even after half a decade. It's a real shame that the current 40 series offer is so terrible in terms of price to performance.
Yeah hoping for better pricing soon :(
Was great seeing the 1080 work on UE5 tech demo
Still rocking a 1070 that I only dusted and applied thermal paste on occasions for 6+ years and recently got myself a $650 ($300+ for the RAM/Storage Upgrades) laptop with a 3050 in it (Sadly it's 4GB but it's fine for my use). Ngreedia lost their god damn minds for even attempting to price a fucking 4070Ti over 2.5x the price that I brought my 1070 as.
Shame is putting it lightly. Highway robbery and greed seems more befitting for Nvidia's behavior. They have completely lost touch with their gaming fan base. Even the lower models are gimped in memory bandwidth and capacity. (such a pity)
Be 7 years this may since 1080 launch
Nvidia released Pascal, with tremendous performance and reasonable pricing. Nvidia realised its mistake, and said "never again." These 10 series cards were really something, and the fact they can still hold it together today says a lot about them. Maxwell was another quite impressive release from team green. So sad that those days of reasonable price:performance are well and truly gone.
Ampere (the 3090 notwithstanding) was quite reasonably priced (MSRP) given the leap in performance vs. the RTX Turning cards. I was able to get a 3080 at MSRP about 2 months after launch. Coincidently, it replaced a 1080. Had the 4080 been price similarly $700-ish, I would've happily sold my 3080 and bought one. But for $1200+ USD, it's hard pass. It's pretty bad when the price/performance leader in the lineup is the halo card.
@@FoDaddy Sadly they gimped that too by using Samsungs 8nm process. Granted it was a big jump from Turing, it would've completely demoilshed RDNA 2 if they went with TSMC's 7nm. Prices were reasonable though across the stack.
@@FoDaddy Nah actually. Its not that impressive. Pascal overall brought better performance jumps and massive gains to efficiency.
Pascal was so insane, that laptop OEM's could actually release laptops with two 150w gtx 1080's (almost same perf as desktop 1080 SLI) + an OC'd i7 and actually manage to cool it all with 2017 levels of laptop cooling. Thats cooling over 300w + in laptops.
Now, with much better laptop cooling? We're barely cooling a 175w rtx 4080 16gb in laptops called the ''4090''
Pascal didn't have that amazing pricing, especially before the 1080 Ti launch... AIB 1080s were going for well over $700 until the Ti launched. Nvidia having high pricing is not a new thing, it goes back to even the AGP days...
And here we see the GTX1080 in its natural habitat, quite at ease on a bed of gravel and now moving over to catch some sunlight amongst the garden flowers. Lovely!
look at the size of that creature! crikey, it's a sheila!
Reading in Attenborough's voice felt mandatory.
And now...the Larch....the Larch....and now...
1080 will always hold a special place in my heart as it was the first card in the first PC I built. I'll always watch 10 series reviews
Aaaaaw...just like my first 3D-Accelerator in '98!!
^3dfx Voodoo² 12MB by/Hmm....well in a: Creative box ;-) (still running btw.)
Nostalgia at it's best. I am still using one. I can't see a reason to upgrade until I upgrade beyond the 1080p165hz monitor. All games are smooth but I don't play single player 2023 titles.. who does?
@@christophermullins7163 ".. who does?" You younglings? 😛
My first build had a GeForce 6600 back in 2004 lol , But I started out on windows 95 lol don't even think the pc had a gpu on my first one
Same. I built a pc in 2019 and was using a LP 1050 ti from the office pc i upgraded from. I decided to get a 1080 on a whim early March 2020. I was glad I did for the next few years.
I still have my Asus Strix 1080 i bought 5 years ago. Its stupid how good this card aged despite it being 7 years old.
Yeah aged so well
I wanted the Strix but still got lucky getting the MSI Gaming version. I did get the Rog Strix GTX 1060 oc and love how it boosts over 2000 without using Afterburner software to do it. Enjoy your sound smart purchase.
@@Obie327i also have Strix 1060 6gb OC edition. This thing is totally monster. Performs like 1660. With little OC.
Congratulations on 500,000 subscribers!
Your background image of thmbnail pic is always awesome ...and you always show me the best content!
Super interesting stuff, I’ve just bought a system with a 1080 in for work and play, as my gaming laptop was getting a bit toasty with its 1060.
It’s nice that the 1080 keeps up so well in modern games, I’ve been pleasantly surprised in my limited testing
i use this exact card in my personal rig with a triple 1080p monitor setup for sim racing/trucking. Funnily enough i actually had a founders edition 1080 (I got for £200 at the start of 2022) before it and swapped it for the dell 1080 (i I got for got for £120), as i wanted to use the better looking gpu for a PC i was flipping as i do a lot of PC flips. I still use it even though im constantly buying rtx 2070s and other 20 series cards for flips as i personally dont need much more performance. Great video as always :)
Long live the 10 series and 16 series. Even being on an RTX 3060 Ti, I still have fond memories of my 1060 and 1660 Ti; my friends who still run them have no complaints either
Bro is commited to xx60 series
I'm running a 1060 3gb in my daily rig everyday since 2017. It does everything I ask of it.
Love the 60series GPUS. Too bad newegg sold me a defective 3060ti. I ended up getting an AMD RX6800 as a replacement now the new Nvidia are cards are way overpriced.
@@MetaDude tbh it's the sweet spot for Nvidia. Also glad to see that you knew to pick the Ti version since those two little letters are not as meaningless as your average Joe might think
I'm on 1660 Ti rn. Might upgrade to 3060 Ti or 3070 later this year if nothing unexpected occur for Starfield
I have a EVGA GTX 1080 FTW and it's still great for 1080p. I have no reason to upgrade yet. Awesome video showing off what the Dell OEM card is capable of!
Same; its hard to upgrade when it can still run everything I enjoy at 1440p.
Same card here too, I run most games at 4k with med/high settings & perfectly good framerates. Waiting to upgrade for something which wont be worse value
Congrats!! for 500k 😄✌️
I just bought an RTX 2080ti for 300 used, I think Nvidia gpus truly shine in the used market
Good lord that's a great deal. Will age a hell of a lot better than the rtx 3070 because you've got 11gb of vram.
Don’t get me wrong, that’s still a good card, but you got a very poor value on it. You could get a brand new rx 6700 xt for $340 and it performs identical to the 2080 ti, has more vram, and will have longer driver support.
@@steamedauroraborealis8208 naw.... Nvidia just works......... amd bad drivers and you get dlss...... so win win....
@@steamedauroraborealis8208 If the 6700XT performs the same for $340, how did he get a bad value for the 2080 Ti? lmao
@@steamedauroraborealis8208 it's only a 1 gig difference in VRAM, and if Nvidia's pattern of supporting their cards much longer than AMD keeps up, the RTX 20 series could last longer than the RX 6000 series, at least in terms of official driver updates. but we'll have to wait and see, Nvidia could always decide to make themselves an even less appealing option by dropping driver support for newer cards.
Congrads on 500k subs
The GTX1080 has a TDP of 180W. The RTX3060 8GB has a TDP of 170W. It makes you wonder about how much improved the new generations really are, the performance is often almost the same. The prices are hiked a lot now, thats the biggest change.
I have a RTX 2070 which performance wise is on par with this 1080, claims to be 175w but it actually draws around about 225w.
I have my 1080 undervolted to .875 MV 1850 graphics MHZ and it pulls about 150 watts under load
my 1080 ti pulling over 300 watts 😎
My RTX 2060 is nerfed af, full load at stock voltage eats 160~180watts and mine is undervolted at 725mv=85/95watts. Performance lost is around 25~35% it's a big deal for a 450w psu
Oh they are improved I had a 1080 FE and swapped it for a 4070 FE Both using just 1 8 pin to power. The 4070 usese around the same power but is much faster and has 12 GB. So yes they new cards are better using the same power. That said I still have the 1080gtx in my 2nd system and its working fine with a 165hz 1080p monitor.
congratulations on 500k subs
dude I love your videos
Congrats on 500K!
Nice! I actually have one of these. Came in my Dell XPS 8930 Special Edition. For 2018 it was pretty well specced out. i7 8700K, 16GB DDR4, GTX 1080, BluRay Burner. Optional Killer NIC Wifi and Ethernet.
Time really flies, I still remember watching videos about the 9800 gtx in 2016 and saying that's an old gpu, now the gtx 1080 is considered an old gpu...
Very good video, but I think you should have added some games at 1440p with FSR to show how well this card can still do with more modern displays.
I think this card looks great, and I’m impressed with the performance. Could you please include Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 in some of your videos?
These are showing up in my local market for $100-$150 now, along with 1070's. It's good to have your video as reference.
80's always aged so well even after a half decade, i used to have 980 back then and it's still game till now.
I love when you do these videos a friend of mine has a GTX1080 in his PC (arquitect work) but he occasioonaly plays some games... I can just show him this video to see how well he could tweak his settings
Yeah it’ll do great
I have a ROG Strix 1080 Ti in my #3 system which is usually hooked up and ready to go. Still a solid card, esp at 1080p. It shares a 1440 monitor with another system and some games I'll run at 1080p and some at 1440. I have an MSI 1080 non-Ti in another system and is also still a decent option. Basically in the ballpark of a 2070 Super or 3060, but available for quite a bit cheaper, at least in the US. These are still both very usable cards for almost any game at 1080p or many games at 1440. I still think the 9xx to 10xx jump is the greatest single step in GPUs, discounting the ability to run DLSS.
I'm still using my old Palit gtx1080 gamerock .. it boosts a bit higher than that dell card maintaining at least 2ghz ..often a little bit higher. ..it's still only a 1080p card as you said..for £135 that dell card is good value ...love these older more attainable hardware videos ..most of us can't afford a 30 or 40 series rtx card.
Still got my msi gtx 1080. Recently played The Callisto Protocol everything on high and some ultra settings. 70 - 80 fps in 1080p was no problem for this true BEAST! The 1080 still holds up in 2023. 👍👍❤️
1080 is about like a 6600 so still very good 1080p high/ultra card and alot of games at 1440p. Driver support for new games not as good is the only downside in my opinion.
Yeah driver support is what will make this card age fast going forward
I know the 1080ti 11gb is nearly the same as the 6600 so this should get around 10% less fps
@@AinzOoalGown2138 I do believe that the GTX 1080 Ti is on par with the XT.
1080= 2060 < 2060s
6600 smokes the 1080. The 1080 is on par with a 2060 in 2023.
still own my two originals. theyre keeping my kids enetertained on their pcs. still chugging along all these years. great cards.
My OC'd 1070 Ti Advanced Binned is around stock 1080 performance and I still love it. Yes it was the all Ultra card but I've been enjoying tinkering with different graphics settings again to find the optimal fps/eyecandy ratio :P
Hey I had this card, specifically a watercooled version of it. Bought it for $100 from a miner. It ran REALLY well. Only issue was the green PCB, that was a little bit of an eyesore.
The 1080 is still a great high fps 1080p esport card, and a capable 60FPS 1440P card because the 8GB of DDR5x has aged very well.
Same. It's a fantastic beast 7 years on.
GTX 1080 (and 1070) is a great value buy today. The most weird thing, is the 1650 cost about the same on the 2nd hand market, as the 1070 these days. (*hint, get the 1070, if you have a PCI-E connector, it is a LOT better). The 1080 in the video for £135 is a great deal. I got a few 1070s for £100-115, which Im pretty satisfied with for some builds.
Unbelievable. I've had a 1080 ti since 2017 and it's been a 4K card the entire time. On most games I get between 40-60 with everything turned up. To think how much different the 1080 runs everything is astounding. Just for example at 4K I get 79 fps in Call of Duty MW 2 with most things at high settings. Thanks for the video, love your stuff been watching for years.
I'd be very surprised if the 1080ti was still a 4k card for many titles after 2020 - it was very good in its day but for more recent titles even starts to struggle with 1440p60 , mostly because of drivers not being optimised for it.(this is the only reason the 3060 can best it)
i play 4k with my 1070 aswell
good cards
And other complete fabrications
Same my 1080ti plays everything 4k60 with a few tweaks in settings it's fantastic.
haha yeah, and i am Bill Gates if that card can run anything newer from 2015, 2016 maybe, in 4k at more than 30fps at least medium-high. People are ridiculous 😂😂😆😆
Still using my EVGA GTX 1080 SC for 5 years now. 1080p and 144Hz is the perfect setting! Recently upgraded from an i7 7700k to an r7 5700x and got massive performance gains. Love it!
Hey i have the exact same card have you hear/see the bug with the Fan ? When the card go to boost clocks fan are going crazy they are doing some rollercoaster... Nice vid m8 !
you making this video right now is hilarious, since my gpu gave out luckily its under warranty and i had to go back to my old gtx 1080
It’s still a great card! But sorry about your other card 😞
I still rock this card (but one from Gigabyte with a standard 3 fan blower cooler) on a daily base for 1080p 60Hz Gaming. Paired with an i7 7700k and 32GB of DDR4. Just awesome! I actually still have no need to upgrade. It runs everything I want absolutely fine!
@Lurch cannot complain. Mine is running fine since 2017 :)
Nice find
I own a ZOTAC 1080 FE, got it for 120$, its a legend
I just scored one for $168 refurbished on eBay that we're old video rendering cards
same for me, i'm glad i've bought it!
I haven't got the chance to use it, still waiting on parts but very excited! Going to be a good vr oriented build too
held up much better than i thought. what a legend. it's also insane how much GPU power draw has gone up across the SKUs since the 10-series. they're just blasting them with Watts now
Owner of almost all variations of Pascal, I'm impressed with power to performance. (Legendary GPU's!) These days I'm shocked at the power envelope and scratching my head at these extreme prices. I'm rooting for intel's new comer, The ARC A770 LE 16 gig. So far impressed by my 2k visuals and performance. Lets hope for clarity and reality check going forward.
Yeah no kidding! It's crazy that 3060 Ti TDP is 200W and this old 1080 has 180 and runs most games hovering around 150. Shame on you Nvidia! Undervolting somewhat migitates the issue with newer cards, but the best case scenario would be to have lower power design to begin with.
@@LurkingLarper Exactly. Instead of an arms race we have a "Highest" wattage race. Let's not throw a little caution to the wind!? My old trusty/crusty Kepler GTX 660 runs about 130 watts. I just upgraded that system with a GTX 1650 super at 100 watts. That to me seems like a smart upgrade. Nvidia seems to have forgotten a little thing called reality, Or are they just lazy sloppy? Or did they just taken the easy way out? 1200+ watt PSU's, 2000 dollar 500+ watt GPU's to play 4k games? I'm just Imagining the coughing up of the electric bill? What about heat output? 300 watts just for the i9 13900k. Add a RTX 4090? Just seems simply crazy to me. Had to rant. Common sense rock on!
@@Obie327 sadly the trend seems to be pushing the envelope with power limits since the limitations of the process nodes and the silicon itself are fast approaching. But yes, everyone should take power usage into consideration when they buy new card in the future. It not only saves you money, but the card runs cooler a d quieter as well if it's a lower powered one. Obviously there are exceptions to the rule, but generally I would always go for the lower TDP value card if the performance and price are in the same range with the competition.
we are in the pentium D era of graphics cards. at this point i’m holding out for the core 2 era!
I'm not a fan of any blower style cards, mainly because of the higher temps you mentioned. Minus the lack of a backplate, I do like the look of the card.
Almost 7 years old and still hitting 60fps at medium-ultra 1080p for new games is pretty great.
Seems like a neat card, I don't think pascal is optimal for newer games but for older titles (pre DX12) it's great. For something tame like this in the power usage department a blower cooler is perfectly fine. I ran an old blower GTX 670 (EVGA FTW) for years that I bought for just over 100 quid a few months before the Maxwell launch, still runs to this day in one of my siblings' PC and it's basically inaudible since it only pulls around 170w.
I main one of these (though not the Dell version) pushing a 1440p high refresh monitor. Plays everything I play at framerates and settings that make me happy.
The PC it's in has developed a PSU problem (shuts off under high load), but the GPU remains reliable and capable, and still makes me happy.
It was an AIO model before, but the prior owner ripped off the questionable and old AIO and installed an Arctic Accelero IV right before selling it to me.
I bought one at launch... still rocking it today lol.
Value of a life time. I just ordered a RX 6800 used on eBay for $370 after shipping and tax. I play 1440P and hope this will last as long as the 10 series did for me.
Found one of those at a garage sale a couple summers ago and the guy didn't know what it was or if it worked, and neither did I at the time, so he gave it to me $5. Works great and my son has it in his PC to this day. I bought a bunch of other PC parts from that guy that day but that was the the best score.
I love the design of the Founder's Editions form the 900 and 1000 series with the silver. Still rocking an MSI FE 1080 Ti and the only real sign of age is the green dye of the Nvidia glowing logo is fading unevenly so it doesn't look quite as crisp anymore with some letters more mint green and others lime green.
@Narkomancers MSI made a Founder's Edition 1080 Ti. It is even listed on their website. Can't speak to other board partners but some of the Founder's Edition cards were made by MSI. Just a fancy way of saying reference design anyway.
@Narkomancers I am sure some were. I guess Nvidia didn't have the production capacity. IDK. But the GPU itself has no MSI branding just the box and even that is kind of low key. No red dragons, just the MSI letters in Nvidia green. As to who got picked to manufacturer the Founder's Edition cards like MSI versus Zotac who knows how that process went.
Great to see the 180 watt GPU from 7 years ago still being on par for a modern entry level. Mine runs most of my games at 100fps or higher at 1080p.
If you have a modest fan in the front of the case sucking in and blowing cool air into the blower inlet, these things work just fine, and run cool.
Still rocking this exact GPU with a Corsair H55 strapped to it, works like a dream ♥️
I’m still rocking one of these with my 7700k!
what an amazing card, im still rocking a palit gtx 1080 gamerock and this thing was worth every single penny when i got it used 4 years ago for 300eu. Im getting fixed 144fps on pubg with low-med settings, around 70-90 fps on cod warzone 2.. on 1440p i may add..!! still waiting for a worthfull upgrade. around the same price point.
Love the videos. Big fan, but do you ever play these games actually? Every time you benchmark them I've noticed it's always at the beginning of the game and never progresses. Lol
Honestly I don’t do much personal gaming these days. If I do it’s usually older games, like fallout new vegas and kingdom come deliverance
If you bough a 1080 / 1080Ti when they came out, you had many years a great GPU! 🙂
I got 1080ti new in 2017 best card I ever owned plan on keeping it till 2025 when I build entire new system
I did. It's still very good. But I did replace it with a 4090. I hope to hack some Linux Quadro drivers for the 1080Ti and use it for 3D accelerated Virtual Machines.
this card is so good, it's still comparable with 3060 in raw performance. it's a sub flagship 2 generations old and yet as capable as a new entry level.
I love love love the 1080, forever one of my favorites :)
Hard to call the 1080 "outdated" when it's pretty much identical to the current consoles GPUs. Still a great card and since the prices of the newer cards just go up and up there's no budget replacement for it.
Nah the new consoles have ray tracing, this doesn't
I'd say the current consoles are more powerful , more like rtx 2080 level at least
I know the PCMR like to huff copium but the new consoles literally use ZEN2 CPUs and RDNA2 GPUs..... it's fairly easy to find a PC equivalent, and it is said to be the R7 3700X & RX6700
@@tourmaline07 in pure number crunching a PS5 has a 2070, but the optimizations make it feel like a 3070.
@@Brukner841 Feel like a 3070? lmao what are you smoking?!
Grabbed a used GTX1080 with EKWB black and unused refence cooler for just 99 euro last week. Amazing the best value for my R5 3600 pc!
Just overhauled my PC. Upgraded my Ryzen 7 2700 to a Ryzen 7 5800x. Still rocking my Strix Gtx1080. Have no reason to replace it yet.
I literally just built my youngest a PC using an older Alienware Area 51 R5, and the only things I could use were the case, the PSU, and that exact GPU. It works extremely well, especially for the stuff she plays.
Just a reminder that the VRAM figure shown by MSI Afterburner displays how much VRAM the game has allocated, NOT how much it is using.
Hardware Unboxed did a really good video about this with one of the earlier RE games/remasters.
Some games are really aggressive with allocation, so you may actually have a lot more headroom than that figure would lead you to believe.
Ah yeah forgot about that, good point
@@RandomGaminginHD cheers! Love the channel. Hope you sis is still selling cool threads.
I have two 1070 ones that look identical. Someone was selling both of them together locally and he sold them as "old graphic cards" as they looked kind of old. I bought them and when I found out that they are 1070s, I was a bit surprised. I thought, they might be GTX 760s or so.
You should do an updated setup video @RandomGaminginHD. Liked the one back in 2018.
Got a 1080Ti & it's still going strong.. I play at 1080p & it's paired with a 5800X which works great together.
Just picked up an old Alienware Aurora and tossed this exact card in it. No regrets! Great card
Actually at that 1080p resolution is still very good, it was born and bought by owners to play games at high refresh rate 2k even 4k nearly 7 years ago. Even now, the minimum required for some new games just reaching GTX 1060 at 1080p, so i think there is no reason why GTX 1080 is not enough, even at 2k.
Ive got a few cards myself, one being a KFA2 Hall of Fame GTX 1080 I believe they are quite rare in europe.
I have the Asus Strix retail version of this card, its still a champ for 1440p 165hz gaming in my opinion.
I'm curious, what do you do with these older cards that you buy for reviews? Do you collect them or resell imediately after?
I just got a msi 1080 used for 100$. Its a nice upgrade for me since i was using a 1060.
8:14 actually it runs a bit better in the actual game, glad that they optimised it a bit more.
I had a EVGA FTW GTX 1080 from May 2020 to April 2022, BEAST of a card if you gamed at 1080p 144hz monitor and don’t care about ray tracing, I only upgraded cause I wanted to go 1440p while keeping above 60fps with high or max settings so I had to upgrade, but honestly if you game at 1080p and don’t mind high settings maybe something maximum, is still wonderful
this card is great using MSI afterburner: remove 300 mhz on core clock open "curve editor" and at 900 mV push up the line to 1900 mhz ,add more 300 mhz to memory and push power limit to max and boom you give around 10% more with lower power consumption and temperature
That card will still be good years from now honestly
im buy 1080 when mining booming 3 year ago after selling my vega 56 serving me playing mw 2019 like champ love this gpu
I love my 1070ti, was my upgrade from my 1650 during semi conductor + 30 series realease shortage. Got it basically for free. Looking at a 2080ti as they occasionally dip under 300 on ebay. Maybe as the 40 series became cheaper and more avabile, they will fall further
I had a dream of owning this beauty years ago, now I have the 2060 to live the 1080 dream.
10 series was great, the 1080 and 1080 ti are still beasts today. Shame we can't get another generation with the same performance, price and power efficiency...
I remember my first 10 series card was GTX 1070 MSI Gaming X card, that cost me 500 USD, it remains one of the "better" price to performance card I have used so far.
I still use a 1080ti till today. It is capable of running every modern game I want to play (Cyberpunk, Hitman 3, WatchDogs Legion and many more). Sometimes even at the highest settings and always at 1440p. Together with my i7-8700k, the PC is "old" but still usable as a good gaming PC. I don't see the point in spending any money for new PC parts in the near future.
I bought this exact Dell card and found the stock fan curve way too conservative. The blower style cooler works very well if you set it to 100% speed over 70C. The fan on mine is noisy, so I ordered a spare for about $10, but I will continue to use it with the original fan as long as it doesn’t affect thermals. All in all very satisfied with it for the $115 I paid. Curious how it will tackle Starfield considering its only one step above the minimum 1070ti.
Random, I'm definitely a believer of Pascal and a Proud own of my MSI Gaming version. I recently switched to ARC A770 LE on my 1440p panel and switched to using my GTX 1080 @ 1080p res. ( 2K was struggling with my old Pascal) I would personally stay away from the blower style versions of this card. (More FPS's with MSI oc, runs cooler as well) Thanks for the upload and review of this legendary beast of a GPU.
@El Cactuar 1440p res
@El Cactuar Basically half of 4k is what I was trying to confer.
Can you review the 1070 ti in 2023? I have a r5 4650g and am planning to buy one used. Much appreciated! 🙏
Mmm tasty tech for my morning
What a coincidence that I bought a second/third hand 1080Ti FE just yesterday :D
dell gpus are nice to get if you find them cheap. i have a dell 3070. was a little bit weird trying to find a link for a vbios update but i got it for 100 under msrp in the middle of the gpu crisis lol
Looks like a nice card, though I'd be concerned about cooling in the Dell that it would have been in originally - especially given how you use an open test bench and the temperatures were already approaching 80 degrees.
Also, if you have the budget then I'd recommend going to at least 32GB DDR4 - as you are seeing, 16GB is barely enough nowadays for gaming on its own (and that doesn't include anything running in the background, such as Streamlabs OBS etc).
I don't hink it's a really a big of a deal, most games don't use a big amount of ram but indeed we can't know if soon it will change.
This thing said, I'm upgrading to 32GB anyway on DDR4 because I want to try out OCing some dual rank modules xD
I was actually using a dell 1080 with a aftermarket cooler and a moderate overclock for a long time
I had a 8700k/GTX 1080 rig and it was great
My EVGA 1070 Ti outperformed that 1080 in CP2077, but it was replaced with a 3080 12gb and I am playing Sims 3 this week and getting 5 second 0 fps lows every couple days and just before I save my Sim + lot and start a new game and import it again.
Impressive how this Pascal GPU still works today.
That is an MSI Aero GTX 1080 Cooler so what dell it was pulled from had been upgraded, the Aero use a Nvidia OEM green PCB. The did a sea hawk AIO water cooled model to which was the same PCB and cooler but with a stylist back plate and Corsair AIO pump replacing the stock fin stack, but kept the shitty Blow to cool Mem and VRMs. plus those was upgraded to better one which could handle more power ful OC's. MSI did supply OEM's but dell normal have all branding removed and that would include the Carbon fibre looking bits and MSI their brand white stripe. GTX 10 series was the last one's of great value and worth the price tags.

I’m still holding onto my GTX 1080, amazing card
i recently brought a dell oem gtx1060 6gb and i love the look of these dell cards but it opinion
Hi guys. Any idea on how this turbo cooler style RTX3090 (made by AFOX) performs?
cool RE4 seeing on benchmarks, bet seeing RE4 on more frequent benchmarks. overall great list of game to benchmark.
Yeah will keep it in the benchmarks:)
