How does the almost 7 year old GTX 1080 perform in 2023 across a variety of games at 1080p, 1440p, and 4K? Well let's take a look at the underlying tech, and see how the circuitry in the card provides the performance we see!
The Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 is built using TSCM's 16nm lithographic process- and despite the relatively large transistors, the performance still packs it where it counts! It features the fully unlocked GP104-400-A1 GPU die, which utilized 7.2 Billion transistors to build up 2,560 FP32/INT32 CUDA cores, 160 Texture Mapping Units, and 64 Rasterization Operation Pipelines. Is the card still worth it in 2023? Well, yes and no, but mostly... yes!
Test System Specs:
- Intel Core i7-11700k
- ASUS ROG Strix Z590-e Gaming WiFi
- 64GB 3200 MT/s Silicon Power DDR4
- GTX 1080 Founder's Edition
- WDB SN770 1TB PCIe 4.0 for games
- Samsung 970 Evo 1TB PCIe 3.0 for OS/Boot
- 650W EVGA PSU
A GPU is a separate bank of ALUs and FPUs, designed to offload heavily parallelizable calculations from the main CPU onto a dedicated chip. The Graphics Card refers to the entire sub-system, containing the PCB, Memory, and Cooling solution.
Building a Budget PC can be tough. Not only are GPUs and CPUs so incredibly expensive, but they can be hard to find on a budget... But, there are tips and tricks to finding you your dream Budget GPU, and pairing it with a CPU that will give you the performance you want!

I just got a 1080 used for $100. I tested a couple games and in battlefield 2042 I went from running it on low barely hiting 45 fps on my 1060 to running the game maxed out hitting nearly 100 fps. Huge improvement.
My gtx 1080 is still rocking games at 1440p on ultra - high in cyberpunk
Still a useful card in 2024, unreal longevity. Pascal will probably always be Nvidia's best generation.
I somehow got an AIO modded GTX 1080 in early 2019 for $180 and I wish I kept it around. They had an eBay listing for like $280 and I just threw a lowball offer for shits and giggles and they accepted. I thought there must've been something wrong but it ran well, overclocked decently, and never gave a single issue. I sold it in a PC when prices got crazy during lockdown though
I still have a 1080 Ti to this day and it still holds up well.
is it worth it to go for 250 1080 ti or 150/200 1080 normal used i have been thinking but not sure if the ti is worth
You are right, this was an absolute BEAST when it came out!
I still have mine and still enjoy it in modern games. Don't forget that this card is almost 8 years old. 8 years! And with the FSR option these days I think the lifespan can even extend a couple more years in 1080p gaming. 😎👍
grabbed a 1080 Ti for $115 yesterday for my girlfriends first build. the amount of performance for that kinda cash is insane. like insane insane.
Yeah ikr. Older gen stuff, which still performs very well, is getting incredibly inexpensive relative to where it used to be!
I have a "Zotac GTX 1080 AMP! Extreme" and I am happy to see how great that old beast still performs even in modern games. So no need for me to upgrade yet.
I'm happy with my purchase of MSI GTX 1080 gaming in 2017. (non inflated price) Just recently put this on a 1080p panel. I believe the Pascal architecture is an absolute legendary product. Thank you very much for the informative review Proceu Tech!
Tempted to buy a used one in a spare parts build. Thank you for the education and history of the card.
i7 4790k With GTX1080 8GB Founders Edition 32gb ddr3 rams at 1600mhz still going unbelievably strong in today's games in 2023😂😂😂
First, we should define “budget”. $150 US might be budget to some, but for us low end users I consider $100 or less to be budget.
At $150 typical sale price at the end of 2023, I would consider it more of a value.
they go for $150 in canada too. thats about $110 usd. you just need to keep searching marketplaces. i also got a 1080 ti for about $100usd and sold it out for $100 extra
I’m still rocking a founders edition GTX 1080 Ti. Still shreds at 1080p and is perfect for my 165hz 1080p monitor. The base 1080 can be found for as cheap as $110 which is an awesome card at that price. Pascal is still awesome to this day.
I picked up a evga 1080 ti for $250 australian dollars last week and its quite as hell and runs basically everything at 165+ fps in 1080p with ultra settings
Well worth it, 1080 ti cards are usually selling for $500 in australia, I'm just lucky i found a miner who is panic selling their items..they did lie when i asked about mining haha but their sell history showed mining gear only
Lee, i just hope it runs as well as mine does. i picked up one for around 300 dollars last summer and i am impressed.
@@afti03 it runs perfect, the guy took pretty good care of it while mining with it.
Having the 1080 ti in my new set up has made me realise good gaming should be silent
LOL, try Cyberpunk, Hogwarts Legacy, Red Dead 2, and Assassin's Creed Odyssey and tell me "The 1080 Ti runs everything at 165 FPS at 1080p with ultra settings". The 1080 Ti is still very good for staying above 60 FPS at 1080p, but the only time you'll get 165 FPS at Ultra settings are when you're playing eSports games.
@@selohcin i have no need to play such games so my experience has been great for the reasons/games i got it for
One of my bigger mistakes was getting a 1060 instead of a 1080. The 1060 lasted me a long time though, only recently replaced with a 4070. This is why I love 4K, enable GPU scaling and run games at 1080P if you need to, you can really stretch out cards that way. I think the time is here that all Pascal owners start to look to a new card. I know I wanted one, the 3080 10GB but it was MIA at a fair price.
i got the 1080ti for around 150$ 2 weeks ago and im livin vibin lovin it :)). had a 1660 super but dunk it my loved 1080ti👑 kicks ass to all 20 series and even 3060 💪👑
1080 is still an awesome card my son has one in his system and plays 1440p ultra wide n for games he plays it's absolutely amazing all these years later was originally in older son pc but he got upgraded so card was passed down
4K gaming on older DX11 games and still kicking on DX12 games with low settings…
For the price, this card is killer. A budget card but still viable by todays standards if you’re alright with lower settings
had a founders 1080 back in '17 - dominated everything at 1440p, and prob my fav reference GPU design,
it's still a good card for 1080p gaming , games are more cpu bound than gpu nowadays anyway
this card was a dream for me . till now i had gtx 750ti :D i upgraded to 3080 and im so happy :)
I bought a GTX1080 for 140 euros three months ago and I am very happy with the performance, noise and consumption. It goes like silk.
This is literally awesome content
If you play in 1080p like I do, GTX1080 is the best cost/perf card at this moment TBH. Its cheap, it runs dead cool, it runs perfectly fine on a 500W or below PSU, and most of my titles are maxed out.
I have a Titan X Pascal and a Titan V I use for machine learning, not gaming. I tested them, and while both beat the GTX1080 in some games, there is not a difference large enough to justify the heat generated, the power consumption and the insane price of these two cards.
If you are on a budget and want to get started with a gaming pc, just pick one of these GTX1080 for 100$.
Couldn’t agree more!
i have the Zotac's GTX1080 that i bought in 2018. i got a new card for a low price because the paper package of the card was damaged ;) And i am absolutely happy with it. I only went through a CPU Upgrade some time ago (4790k to a 11700k) . Every Game out now is playable in a really good performance way. I also play all my VR Games with the Rift CV1 through the GTX 1080 (Iracing-ACC-Flysim and many more) and its really one of the best Price-Performance Cards I had in my entire Gamer Career (startet nearly 30 years ago) (3DFX and RivaTuner if someone knows this stuff at all after all these years hehe) ... i will definately wont buy (especially because of the extreme prices) a newer generations Card as long as i can play all the games with this outstanding GPU. If you have the chance to get one of these GTX 1080 or 1080 Ti's from generations below and dont want to spent way tooooooo much money for a RTX Card then go and get one of these ones! U will be absolutely fine
I'm hopping to find a founder's edition gtx 1080ti, my friend has a strix one but I just love the futuristic design of founder's edition 1080ti, pray for me
Just bought a MSI Aero (blower type) GTX 1080 for 117 USD in Denmark
(82-83c while benchmarking in 25c room, yes more noisy than a Strix)
(Danish retail prices is often 50% more than US)
Got my msi armored oc gtx 1080 few months ago for $180 by a miracle because usually cards like the 1080 go for about 50 dollars more then that on Croatian used gpu market. Used it good, played all the games on 1080p max settings and got more then 60 fps. It's still a 1080p 60 and above fps budget king, but sadly because of some money issues I had to sell it, and I was lucky by doing so because I sold it for 200 euros which is about 40 euros more then what I payed for iy few months ago so it was a great flip. Now I found gtx 1070 ti that performs as good as the 1080 managing the same or about 5fps less which I'll pay only 120 euros for leaving me with a 80 euros which will help pay the bills. So glad to be this lucky with the deals I find, and I wish U all to found, wishing luck apron U'all to also find a deal that works good for U.
You’ll eventually find a card that’s way more powerful for way less in a few years time! 4 years ago when I bought this 1080, I never would have thought it would be considered a budget gpu! There is hope for everyone!
@@ProceuTech Exactly. Currently I'm really satisfied with the performance gtx 1080 and 1070 ti cards manage to provide, especially for thair price. Thanks for taking a second to read and reply to my comment and wish U luck in ur next big buy
@@ProceuTech U make really good videos, really enjoyed it make some more soon.
@@josipzarkovic5850 I appreciate it a lot!
Now towards the end of November I got a gigabyte xtreme gaming gtx 1080 for $80!
Still rockin my 1080 ftw hybrid edition water cooled. Still plays all aaa games 1440p high ultra
I didn't find any 1080 or Ti at reasonable price however got a 3070 for *RM1880* *US420* back in late 2022...
1080ti is one of the best GPUs in 2023 which can handle almost 90% of the new AAA titles on 1080p maxed out graphics. I have a GTX1080ti and I am happy to use it until it stops giving me 60fps, see you in 2027 maybe.
I have an EVGA hybrid 1080 Ti that's super quiet and still runs everything at 1080p
Hi, can it stop all fans when idle? Thanks!
GTX 1080, a great card, like!
As are the 3DFX Voodoo cards 🤓
@@ProceuTech that's true :)
just got one for $50 and ran vr great
Just shoehorned one into my Optiplex 9020. it was rough going.
Best design ever FE
I still use the ZOTAC GeForce GTX 1080 Ti AMP Extreme and it's still enough for the games I play at 1440p.
I had an i7-7700k CPU and an Aorus/Nvidia GTX 1080 GPU with 16Gig of RAM. My system was running slowly, for years, when playing games and would often stutter with games like Battlefield IV and V, Battlefront 2 and such.. It often confused me because I thought my system was good! Turns out it was my CPU not getting enough coolant because the water cooler had started to crap out so it was at a constant 100 degrees. I also only have 16Gig at 24,000Mhz so those two things were crippling my system.
A few days ago I rebuilt 80% of my PC with 32Gig of RAM running at 36,000Mhz, a Ryzen 5,600 CPU and a gaming motherboard. Games look AMAZING now and I'm actually passionate about playing them again because I'm not having to get frustrated with my PC and being confused as to why the hell it was lagging so much! Next month I may buy an Nvidia 3060 and the month after that maybe a slightly better Ryzen.. They guy in the shop said that, with what I purchased, I'll be set for years though. Some of you may think that this is overkill but I'm also an experienced 3D model artist working with games engines and digital sculpting so I need the extra power.
So sounds like your CPU was overheating and now you fixed that but I’d bet your GPU is still overheating. If you don’t want to upgrade your GPU anytime soon definitely repaste it. I added new thermal paste to my 1080 and gained 20-30 FPS via boost clock staying above 1800mhz. Before the repaste I was throttling to below 1600mhz to stay below 90 C. Now I maintain 1800 mhz at 75 C
Cause yeah, you didn’t experience a bump in FPS from the Ryazan but rather by removing a throttling CPU. 7700k will not throttle 2080 let alone a 1080, lol.
And 3060 is a terrible upgrade from GTX 1080 it’s only like 20% more powerful. A 3070 is a bigger jump for not much more money and a 3080 is nearly double the performance of a 1080. That’s 20% compared to probably 80% gains
@@TonyisToking I never said that my GPU was the issue.. My GPU is just fine and I must be imagining that my PC Is now running recent games on "Ultra." But hey if trying to troll people by making remarks about how inferior their tech is compared to yours? Kinda makes it look as though you're over compensating for something iRL. But hey I'm 6ft4 and nicely built so I don't have to go about bragging about my hardware. Blocked 🥱🥱
I'm only just thinking of upgrading now in April 2024! Lol 🤣
GTX 1080 was one of legendary cards. It has served me well over years time for something more beefier.
im still using my 1080 from 2016, realistically its still great, i get 40-70 fps on most games i play. i do need to upgrade tho
I have a exact same graphic card, would you advice some kind of upgrade? I dont really play anyway very Often and i dont have any overclock anything. Just a few games once in a while, casual gamer. Got a xeon e5-2690v1 with 64gb DDR3 ECC 1866
I would just stick with what you have honestly, I would upgrade your CPU before your GpU tbh!
Ture! my RX 170 was so good at the time but its time is done... Has a hard time with most games now... 6600 xt is lookin REAL nice!
I have the 1080 ti with 11gb vram. I’m able to play mk1 4 ultra settings with30fps when battling and 60fps with story mode cut scenes. I have a z87 mb and 4770k cpu. How is this possible? The vram or netherealm making this game for this gpu ?
Where can you buy it
Just picked up a Gigabyte GTX1080 Turbo on marketplace, with a extra unused EK waterblock for $100.
I just got a msi 1080 on marketplace for $100 the otherday as well lol.
@@NotTheAverageGamerz Nice!. I live in the Portland area, it has a huge 2nd hand tech market. There are deals on there everyday. I saw a 1650 on there yesterday with an entire PC, minus the SSD for $130. You just have to have cash and be ready to drive. Deals like those, you can flip the extra parts and get the card for almost free. I had my pick between a Gigabyte triple fan 1070, a MSI 1660 super or the Aero 1080 w/ the extra water block, all for the $100. I almost went with the 1070 but the guy with the 1080 lived across the street from me, so I just walked outside, doesn't get any easier than that? It's a single blower card, louder but I play with headphones on and can't really hear it unless I am listening. Its a beast of a card still though, plays everything in my Steam library easily as well as anything new on gamepass at a acceptable level. I have RDR2, Fallout 4, Halo Infinite campaign(over halfway done) and Forza Horizon to keep me busy, the 1080 handles all those well, even at 1440p.
Still absolute beast. The whole GTX 1050ti, 1060, 1070, 1070ti, 1080, 1080ti line was a huge step into next gen graphics cards.
Not only the performance was extremely big and still is! There is also the power draw aspect which is so well on those cards! So much more power for less energy cost.
For me this is the most legendary generation of Nvidea cards.
U can still play modern games on those cards and if u have a 1070 or higher u can even play on higher settings with decent fps.
ive got one for 140€ .. its a beast!
Where can I buy one?
having one that sits at 2GHz is basically like a RTX 3060 without AI or RTX
I had 1070ti and RTX3060 back to back, I couldn't tell the difference. It was the start of 2020 and I was just excited to have an RTX card, EVGA waitlist, 6 months later, it was a mild disappointment, consider it was nearly $450 at the time. RT severely killed that card when you turned it on.
@@Hughesburner and what was CPU? Anything beneath an i5 10400 will bottleneck the 3060. That does not sound right...
Just bought one in goodwill for $44 out the door. Planning to build my son a gaming rig 1080p. Any recommendations on budget cpu?
Dang, a steal! Are you looking for something more recent, or are you fine with an older chip?
I just cut my hd cage out of my Optiplex 9020 with I7 4790. 16g ddr3 1600 ram, Stuffed a 750w thermaltake full mod PS and an Asus ROG Strix GTX1080 into it. I love it!!!!
Whats the fps lool like on fortnite for this build?
Just bought a used 1080ti for 200€, couldn’t be happier. Best bang for the buck atm I would say
Vega 64 is a good alternative to the 1080, its performance is around the same
sir do not lie, you are no coconut.
@@_.dace._ if you can prove it in a court of law
Well... the Gtx 1080 consumes 180w and the Vega 64 close to 300w.
@@evassion1982 I'm not going to disagree, having owned one they run hot and loud
@@aaldrich1982 That doesn't mean that Vegas are bad cards, but they do need to tune them up with undervolt, and the frequencies were in a hurry, barely leaving room for overclocking. Inefficient power/consumption. I had a water cooled Sapphire Vega 64.
Gtx 1080 is pretty much a PS5 lol
Games keep on crashing sometimes, even software for headset crash when I play CS2 with 7.1 surround system. Also played Arkham Knight just to test if it's only crashing during CS2 but it happened also in Arkham Knight. I don't know am I having problems with GPU, CPU or something else is going on. I have Gigabyte PSU 550W 80+ bronze. If anyone has a clue what can be the problem and solution, I would be grateful to let me know.
Are we talking bluescreen crash? Or the game just freeze?
@@ProceuTech Freeze than I must Alt+Tab or Windows+D and when I open Task Manager it crashes.
Are you able to close the game after or do you have to reboot your system to make it usable again?
@@ProceuTech Sometimes it closes on its own, sometimes I have to do it and few times I had to restart PC. Force restart.
@VidekanicMarko that’s strange, have you tried DDU’ing your gpu drivers and reinstalling? That would be my first trouble shooting step, but there could be other issues I just don’t know about.
2560x1440 with a Gtx 1080 gives at least 60 fps in every fps game
Is all the gameplay on the 1080?
Not all, but a sizeable majority!
I got one today for 40
Should I go with 1080ti turbo model ?
What is your current card?
@@ProceuTech gtx 1050
Then yes!
Nvidia stopped supporting these cards recently I believe or are pulling support soon. Something like that, so no more updates. Same for my old Titan
Who also has been rocking the GTX1080 since 2016 ?!? 🎉
$160 used 6600XT smokes the GTX 1080 making it irrelevant.
1080p low? why playing all games on low graphicS??
To focus on competitive gameplay. Most of the people I know turn settings down to low to get the most amount of frames possible. I'm not saying whether I agree, but I wanted to show the 1080 in the best possible light!
Ok, time to upgrade from the 980 😀 but really 😀 #2023
Bro it sounds like you've got candy in your mouth or something. You can hear it at 6:18 but the entire video is pretty much like that.
your mic is too close and to sensitive I can here you swallow lol
