My last new graphics card was a 1080, I‘ve bought second hand since then and will keep doing that cause these prices are…

[–] Don_alForno@feddit.org 11 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I'm still using that 1080Ti and currently see no reason to upgrade.

FF VII rebirth will require an RTX 20

but I think that's down to lack of optimization

[–] newthrowaway20@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

Rebirth also says it requires 12 gigs of vram, my 3080 is crying.

Okay losers, time for you to spend obscene amounts to do your part in funding the terrible shit company nvidia.

[–] Murvel@lemm.ee 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Okay loser, so what GPU should we buy then?

[–] rautapekoni@sopuli.xyz 9 points 2 days ago (1 children)

A used 2080.

[–] Murvel@lemm.ee 3 points 2 days ago (3 children)

That would be a downgrade for me. And you know, same company...

[–] proceduralnightshade@lemmy.ml 11 points 2 days ago (2 children)

"Used" is not "same company" because you're not buying from said company.

[–] errer@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago (2 children)

You still gotta use their shitty NVIDIA experience app (bloated with ads that make NVIDIA money when you open it), and you buying a used NVIDIA card increases demand (and thus prices) on all NVIDIA cards.

If you are a gamer and not doing AI stuff then buying a non-NVIDIA card is entirely an option.

GeForce Experience app is dead thank goodness with no account or sign in required anymore.

Good fucking riddance

Market share is not as simple as measuring directly sold products.

Nvidia Core i5.

[–] moonlight@fedia.io 9 points 2 days ago

I think it's going to be a long time before I upgrade my graphics card with these prices.

[–] vane@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

More Shenanigans. Moooore !

[–] TheFeatureCreature@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

No thanks; I'm good. Still feeling the sting over buying my 4080 Super last spring. Also it's doing me just fine for my work and for games.

[–] makingStuffForFun@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 days ago

I'm waiting for that new Intel gear.
