I bought one of these from Nvidia, Amazing card that lasted me 6 years, Kinda sad I sold it. Great card dude even in 2024, Just remember its a 1080p card now maybe some light 1440p gaming enjoy..
Thanks for your experience with it! Yeah, as I said in the video, I don't plan on doing much more with it (I have a 4090 in my main rig). I got it mostly as a conversational and show piece :)
I don't know that it belongs in the same tier as its performance is more limiting than the 1080 Ti by a long ways; however, the RX 580 8GB should still be a conversation to have as it is still a somewhat relevant card, specifically in the budget build arena. Unfortunately though, there will no longer be any driver support for that card, moving forward.
Cool video, while the founders cards are good, I don't like how agree with how nvidia would set a MSRP for the card but not(until recently) enable their board partners with decent pricing so they can have msrp cards as well, this is part of the reason why evga got out of the business of producing nvidia gpus. I also don't agree with the 1080 ti being the goat gpu, if we're talking about the performance you got for the msrp founders card yeah that was amazing, but performance wise, that level of performance has been hit time and time again by both nvidia and amd, honestly if it wasn't for the price, people would probably consider the rtx 4090 the goat.
Great points! I agree that the pricing model for the cards is a problem for sure. As to the card being a goat, it isn't the straight fps performance that makes it the goat, it's the fact that the card came out 8 years ago and can still compete in the current market of gpus and at a fraction of the cost of those current gpus.
@@Lead-a-Horse-PC-Hardware exactly, and specifically it can still compete because there are cards that hit that same performance levels you got your 1080 ti, 2070 super 2080 2080 super rtx 3060, and if you at these cards on ebay with the sold and completed items filters all these cards go for roughly the same price used and working. nvidia has been stagnant for the most part besides the 4090, and while AMD has made progress they were behind, and still haven't really caught up to nvidia completely. and this is what I mean by it's not really the goat gpu, it was the flagship gpu of it's generation with almost the complete die, usually those kind of cards tend to have really good staying power, what we should really be looking forward to is is the 4090 with it's 24gb of vram still going to be usuable in 5 to 6 years and I think it'll be more than chugging along to be fair. Mind you the 4090 isn't even the full die, which is just insane.
how did i immediately know this video was about the 1080 ti
Lucky guess? ;)
THE GOAT!!!
Indeed!
Im a proud owner of a GTX 1080TI OC (AIO watercooled)
I love it 👌
Nice! It's an awesome card!

The Greatest Mistake form Nvidia
Yep, some say they didn't know what they had released until it was too late.
rx 580 belongs in the same tier imo
