Ummmm, bro, the Titan X Pascal and Titan XP are *LITERALLY* one and the same card

The problem with new games is that game developers dont optimize their games

Been rocking 1080ti since 2018 and I have put 14, 0000 hours of gameplay on it. I will use it through most of this year hopefully. Great card!

Remember when Flagship gpus were affordable? Pepperidge Farm remembers.

Got mine for $80 off of fb marketplace 2 years ago, my first pc build, what a gift! I’ve been gaming ever since, any game I want. I love it, looking to get a 3070ti/3080 soon so I can get more frames to play COD at 240 (1080p) and Elden Ring in 4k.

But if I don’t get it, I’ll still be rocking the gigachad 1080ti til it bricks on me.

It's super weird how the 1080ti is 8 years old now. I remember back in 2018 when I built my first gaming PC, Ryzen 7 1700, gtx 1070, and 16gb ddr4 2400mhz. Crazy to believe that was a mid-high end pc back then.

I own one of the best, or even the best GTX 1080 Ti. MSI GTX 1080 Ti Lightning Z and i'm still rocking it. I was planning to upgrade to an RTX 5080 but it's performance was not what i expected so i decided to skip this gen entirely.

I'll buy an RTX 6000 series card instead and my GTX 1080 Ti will serve me 2 more years. Truly the goat gpu. I can even game at 4K in some games like Doom Eternal, Battlefield 5, Batman: Arkham Knight, Wolfenstein New Colossus etc. I can play old games at 4K and i have plenty of old games waiting to be played. So i'm happy with my trusty old GTX 1080 Ti. Still works like a charm really. It will be 10 plus years when i'll finally replace it with a new gpu.

I'm still using 1080ti on 1440p after 7 years. I reapplied the thermal paste and the heat is no issue anymore.
It can play most games at maximum settings and kinda ok but can be a bit of a struggle against latest AAA titles like Monster Hunter Wilds.
Basically the best GPU I've ever bought. It's a shame Nvidia may never do smthing like this ever again.

3:48 is obviously Forza Horizon 5, not CS2.

I just picked up an EVGA FTW3 1080ti today for $160 local. I buy and sell used PC hardware and got my hands on a hybrid 1080ti last year and was blown away with how well it performed for its age. Needless to say, this 1080ti FTW3 was always my dream card when it launched. I plan on never letting this one go. Such a beautiful card and memory of NVIDIA’s biggest mistake 😂

[arturmuchliado]

Proud owner of 1080 TI ROG Strix + 7700k, built in 2017. While of course it showing its age with newer titles, I still have quite a big game backlog to catch up, so still do not considering to upgrade, probably will still wait till 6 series cards, so then my rig till hit 10 years lol, money well spent.

[mikek]

Still rocking two of them in SLI! It also saved me while my 3080 was being replaced in my main gaming machine, playing @4k60fps in the games I play. And no, I don't play the latest titles, just the ones I enjoy.😊

[Dr_McKay]

It wasn’t until the 4000 series launched that I replaced my 1080Ti, I could no longer justify buying absolute top end GPUs anymore though (plus tech news was full of instances of 4090’s melting their power cables)

[Hughesburner]

5800x paired with a EVGA 1080ti FTW3 Hybrid but with a G12 bracket and a 280mm AIO. It still plays a majority of games today. It will be interesting to see how many cards last this far pasts their release date.

[keulloe]

Still miss mine which I sold in 2022, already upgraded twice (to 6700 XT and then to an used RTX 3080). Without a doubt, the best card Nvidia ever made.

[InsurancePlz]

I got mine day of release and still have it running in a 2nd PC. And i bought a 2nd one off FB marketplace for 75$ i put in a 3rd PC for nieces and nephews to play with. The 1080ti was and is the GREATEST gpu nvidia has ever released

[JulDBoyd]

System: i7 3770K, 32GB Ram & GTX 1080 w/ 32in 60hz TV
Games: Civilization 6, Star Trek Online, New World, Elite Dangerous, Pal World & Star Craft 2
Only issues I have are loading times as Sata SSD's & the 3770K are falling a bit behind.

[urazoktay]

Amazing video, thank you, i subscribed.

[skateratgaming]

I still rock a Gigabyte Aorus 1080ti. Honestly, I am just now considering upgrading after 6 years. This card has been amazing.

[JP-jqob]

mine is still alive and kicking! I paid $699 at launch and put an evga hybrid kit on it, a family member uses it daily
