The fastest GTX GPU is now $182.

Budget GPUs kinda suck so maybe buy this instead.

I remember when 1200 dollars was considered ridiculously expensive and not worth for any normal consumer... and now they make ones way more expensive

It's so weird seeing one so clean. I only ever see them covered in layers of lint in neglected mining rigs. Wild.

For basically 150, you can play any PC game you like at 60fps, a forgotten gold standard.

Honestly the best GPU gen ever released by Nvidia. The 1080 ti was an insanely good deal, 700$/€ for that much performance was just incredible. After that the prices just escalated...

"2017 was also the first year I built my first PC" absolutely blows my mind. The generational gap is real - I built my first PC in 1996. Thanks for making me feel old, mang.

I remember when I use to think the Titan was some sort of otherwordly GPU that no common mortal could own, that is was synonymous of power, it was a rare word only few would utter

[krimzon]

I remember TotalBiscuit mentioning how a game a long time ago, was so poorly unoptimized that his own rig with the Titan was having trouble. Times have changed...

Got a 4070 today, upgrading from a 1070 ti. Been running games at 1440p with the old beast for a while now but I couldn't get those sweet 144 FPS to max out my monitor, this generation was definitely insane.

Best thing you can do is buy like 3 or 4 gen older quad core cpu with 16 gig of ddr3 ram for like 200 bucks or less, and then take the rest of the budget and get a 4080 or 7800xt and blast every modern game with a decent fps, amazing graphics and no lag. I currently have i7 4790k which is Relic by now, 16 gig ddr3 with RX 7800xt.. im getting 160+ FPS everything maxed out in Overwatch at 3440x1440p 144hz, and in World of warcraft retail i get around 65-90 fps depends on the zone i am in. Never upgraded pcu from back in the day, i just always swapped GPU every second year or so.

your video editing goes incredibly hard ngl

Great analysis on the Titan XP's longevity and value for money, even now in 2024. Your reflections bring up some solid points as to why considering used GPUs might actually be worthwhile, especially for those on a tight budget.

[ProjectPhysX]

I got a Titan Xp for free in 2018, for my research with OpenCL programming. I miss the times where GPUs were 2-slot and <300W, suitable for multi-GPU systems. 1:06/3:49 the modern 2-slot Nvidia GPUs are hot garbage for compute stuff unfortunately, due to lack of VRAM bandwidth.

Still using my ZOTAC GTX-980Ti from 2015. It still does 1080p on all games at max settings at very playable frame rates. I just put new thermal paste on every 3 years and it is as good as the day I got it. My PC has been upgraded twice, (was an 1150 I7-4790, now an I5-12400F) and it is still very useable. Don't waste your money.

This man just cannot stop making movies, even when he's making a 6-7 minute video.

Also, something that I'm wondering about, I remember you said in your last setup review vid that you're going to try a split keyboard. Any updates on that topic?

[mauree]

Any video that pushes people to consider the used market is a good video in my mind. good job.

[Croco_G]

I remember adding this gpu to my Amazon cart and the price seemed ridiculous at that time.

[GhostyKingdom]

where on earth did you find one for 200$

[hupe]

2017 feels like last week, time after 2020 went lightspeed quickly, gta 6 trailer was 6-7 months ago already and I swear I watched it at the video release date and it was yesterday

[Xeonzs]

I borrowed one of these form work while I was waiting for my 1080ti order (already sold me gtx 970), it felt like holding a godly piece of weaponry.
