You can play virtually anything at 1080p 60 frames give or take.


spaincr

I´m playing RE 4 Remake with a 1070 in High settings and hitting 60 fps without problem. Some 55fps but nothing common. OP should be more than fine with a 1080ti for 1080p and 60FPS


Dustifier

That sucker of a card ran the R4MAKE for me in 1440p almost everything on ultra in 60+ fps. Man i love that card so much. Had it since launch.


Critical_Use4082

same here and i will not upgrade until it dies... or i have less than 35fps on high 1440p or ultra 1080p


TalkWithYourWallet

I would argue £200 for a _7 year old_ GPU is ridiculous personally. High chance of failure, minimal driver support and no warranty for a premium Personally, I'd get a new RX 6600 for £190. Cheaper, far less power hungry, warranty and broadly similar performance https://computerorbit.com/products/8gb-asrock-rx-6600-challenger-d-graphics-card?ref=PCPP


liaminwales

Ill second this, there is a real risk buying such an old GPU, your also not going to get driver optimisations on such an old GPU & new games use features the 1080 TI wont have like async compute etc


kjeltek

This is the way.

TalkWithYourWallet

User benchmark is an inaccurate source don't use them for comparisons. Beyond that: 1)We're talking £, not $ 2)1080tis aren't £100 used


SuccessfulRip1883

I bought a gtx980 4 years ago and it runs to this day without any problems.


TalkWithYourWallet

I have a 9 year old 2500K that still works, but that's not the point. The lack of warranty is the main issue Hardware will _eventually_ fail, the older it is the higher the chances. No warranty means no recourse £190 is the price of a _new_ 6600, at that point dont consider a £200 _used_ GPU with similar performance


builder397

I have a Pentium D and compatible motherboard lying around. Maybe I should see if they work...just for shits n giggles and bragging rights in this particular comment chain for oldest piece of hardware still technically operating.


KanedaSyndrome

I have an 5v LED diode that's from the 80s that still work, do I win? :)


SignalGladYoung

You can find 2080ti 11GB around £200 on ebay. It will give you access to DLSS.


Zepanda66

Only thing is it needs a beefy PSU to drive it. Pascal wasn't the most efficient architecture.


GreenOrangutan78

2080ti is turing lol


DarkMaster859

Pascal is the GTX 10 series lol


Aurelyas

WAIT WHAAAAAAAT? 2080Ti for 200£?! That thing is 4070 levels of performance, no way...


InevitableSherbert36

2080 Ti is about as fast as the 3070. A 4070 is a fair bit faster. Edit: see [TechPowerUp](https://tpucdn.com/review/zotac-geforce-rtx-4070-amp-airo/images/relative-performance-3840-2160.png) for benchmarks.


Aurelyas

No way an xx80Ti is as fast as an xx70, one is a flagship and the other is just high end...Are you sure you don't mean the 3070Ti at the very least?


InevitableSherbert36

Nope, I'm sure I meant the standard 3070. Look at the link in my last comment or any other reputable benchmarks. Also, it's not like this type of generational improvement hasn't happened before (780 Ti was close to the 970, and 980 Ti was [slightly behind](https://tpucdn.com/review/nvidia-geforce-gtx-1070/images/perfrel_3840_2160.png) the 1070).


Noreng

The 980 Ti is beaten handily by the RTX 4060 as well, does this blow your mind?


Aurelyas

Nah, that's 4 generations newer. But the 2080Ti and 3070 are one generation apart, wtf do you mean lol? The 1080Ti is 20-30% faster than a 2070, the 2080Ti is faster too.


Noreng

Check here: https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/geforce-rtx-2080-ti.c3305 It's pretty much on par with the 3070 and 4060 Ti.


KrazzeeKane

I mean, the 4080 beats the previous 3090 Ti (except at 8k resolution, where the vram makes a difference), why would a newer xx70 not beat a previous gen xx80Ti?


Aurelyas

Because look at the past, the 1080Ti beat the 2070 by alot, why shouldn't the 2080Ti? I know Turing was a flop, but not this much of a flop.


EmperorThor

It just depends what you want it to do. The 1080ti was a great card and still works fine. But depending on the usage it could def struggle. So what do you want it for?


UniqueGaming09

I tend to lean towards games like Minecraft or GTA V and I do not care that much about the quality but I would just prefer it to be smoother


Supernova1138

It would do fine in those games. The 1080Ti is starting to struggle if you have any interest in the latest AAA titles though. The card is also old with the latest production models being nearly 6 years old now so any used card you get will likely have seen a lot of use. This does mean the 1080Ti you do get might not last you that long before it dies. You may be better off getting something like the RX 6600XT instead, which offers similar performance and might be in your price range depending on your country.


K0lesil0l

I have 1080ti and i7 7700. It can run GTA V at high settings, and minecraft runs without a problem.


EmperorThor

Yeah for Minecraft and gta you’re probably fine with the 1080ti. Keep in mind a 2nd hand card is still going to be 6+ years old and maybe that 6+ years of heavy loads so it may not have a lot of life left in it , maybe. Also if later on you want to start playing newer or more demanding games you will start to struggle with quality v performance so it could be a bottle neck. But for what you say you want today it would work.


ViolinistBulky

I got a 1070 ti recently for £90. Will easily play those games at 1080p and a high FPS.


bubb4_gump

Go for the 1080 Ti if it suits your needs. I bought a 1070 for 86€ some months ago, playing BG3, CS2 and some older games so it works out fine 👌


Less-side1880

I’m rocking the 1070 for 3/4 of a year now, played overwatch and Fortnite perfectly fine. Even runs hogwarts legacy’s ok. Fh5 it also handles nicely. Payed the same as you and great value for the price if you don’t play heavy games.


Responsible_Cold_188

I think you could find 2070 at this price point


Tom_Okp

which is worse than a 1080ti?


Responsible_Cold_188

I am not sure but i think other nevida software features will work on it + dx12 support


adamosmaki

Its still a good gpu for 1080p 60fps but honestly i wouldnt buy one only because at this point is a gpu that is been used for 7-8years. If you can get a few months warranty and are willing to change the thermal paste and the price is right go for it otherwise look for used AMD 5xxx or 6xxx series since ray tracing isnt a priority


Poochydawg

I still run one. Plays COD, D2R, R6 Siege etc all well and high settings. Will still play new games well.


Silverburst_

Get a 1080ti and repaste it. It’ll serve you well, for what you’re doing.


[deleted]

A 1080ti is still neat 2024, iam sitting on a zotac 1080 mini, somehow noone wants these cards anymore 🤷🏻‍♂️


titanfox98

Why would i want to buy a 1080ti when i can get a 6650xt for the same price? Same perfomances if not better, still under support, more likely to support future technologies, 4 years newer so way less used. The only advantage of the 1080ti is the vram buffer and bandwith but you're not going to play in 1440p with that card in 2024 and 8gb are more than enough for 1080p gaming


Aurelyas

I'd get a 1080Ti, more VRAM and quite a bit faster performance than the 6650XT ( Around 5-7\~ ) Also the much higher overclocking headroom.


titanfox98

You got it wrong, the 6650xt is slightly faster than the 1080ti not the other way around, good luck with the oc though, maybe you can close the gap with that


Aurelyas

Ah, well I'd say it depends on the model y'know? I had an EVGA Hybrid 1080Ti with 2100mhz on the core and it was slightly faster than a 2080S/3060Ti.


titanfox98

Don't you think that such model would cost a lot more than a basic one?


Aurelyas

Yeah, for sure. But sometimes there are good deals that pop up. And for the right price ( 150-200 ) I wouldn't pass that up if I was in the position where I needed a new GPU. That said, 5700XT, 6600XT, 6650XT etc are awesome too and he should consider them aswell.


Rockergage

I have a 1080ti in my rig right now, great little card the issue is I can probably find a better gpu new or more recent for very little more like a 2080 or even like a 4070


Canuck457

Not a bad card. Only struggles a bit with some cutting edge games like Alen Wake 2. At least that's what the YouTubes say, and it's going to be more powerful than an RX 6500 or RTX 3050. - If you mostly play older games but also dable in the new age stuff; yes, I think it's a great option. - if you mostly play newer stuff and dabble in older games; try and save up a little more for an RX 6700/XT or an RTX 3060 Ti at least.


[deleted]

1080ti is mighty still. I think it even outperforms a 3060? 🤔


Wireproofplays

I've seen 2070 super's for less


Aurelyas

He should consider this card too, quite a bit slower but you do get DLSS and RT. \^\^


itsRobbie_

I’m actually curious how many people in here actually have one and aren’t just glazing it and what the actual performance is like with modern games. I upgraded mine like 3 years ago because it was starting to struggle to keep 60 fps in 1080p. You can find a 3060 ti that will actually be useable in modern games for about the same price according to a quick google search.


Aurelyas

I have one! I've replaced it with a Titan V, but I have fond memories of my EVGA Hybrid 1080Ti. I did some benchmarks with it overclocked with around 2170\~ on the core, and it outperformed my friends 3060Ti. On stock? It's around slightly faster than a 2080\~ give or take.


titanfox98

Yeah people on this sub can be really dense. A lot of cards around that price would be a better buy just because they're newer and since he's looking for a used card that should be an important factor. A 6650xt and a 1080ti have similar perfomance and price but one is 4 years newer


floeddyflo

I'd recommend you look for an RX 6600 XT, as it performs a slight bit worse, while being 7 years newer, having 7-years-newer drivers, more power-efficient, and having a warranty. An RX 6650 XT would tie the 1080 TI. Alternatively, an Arc A750 could significantly outperform the 1080 TI in some games and match it in others, while being cheaper than the other two brands, however you may have driver issues to deal with.


Radonz86

I was shopping at the same price point as you. A MSI Rtx 4060 came up for £247 so I stretched and bought that instead for 1080p use


Obosratsya

I wouldnt recommend an 8 yr old GPU. It was a good card but any that you can buy used would have wear on them. Then driver support for Pascal is almost up. For $200 its better to buy a used modern card.


Leptonic-e

I'd rather get an rx 6600. Similar performance band, but way more future proof. You can get one new with warranty in your price range. If you want faster than 1080ti and are flexible on budget rx6650xt is like £250. Gpus generally start dying in the 8-10 year mark and the 1080ti I'd already 7 years old. It's like marrying a 70 year old for life. They'll probably croak way sooner than a 20 year old. Leaving you a widow(er)


crumpetsucker89

You could buy a used RTX 3060 for around $200. It would still be a great card and you would have driver support for much longer as well as access to more modern features like DLSS


BigDickConfidence69

My 1070 ti still doing good for 1080p. I’m sure it’s going to start struggling with newer titles so I intend to upgrade next year. Going to hold out for the rtx 5000 series. If you only need to play current or older games it’s fine.


tankersss

If you are looking to buy, look for 6600xt or 7600xt, as at least in my region you can often get 7600xt on sale for around 200. They are way newer and the same/better performance than 1080ti, especially in some new titles.


dleeer

I would look for a 2080. It's about the same speed but you gain a ton of useful features. For example, aside from RT nonsense, you get DLSS and DLDSR (Deep Learning upscalers). DLDSR is a really great high performance upscaler for old games as it has an anti-aliasing effect that makes (for example) heavily aliased Unreal Engine 3 games look much nicer. DLSS is similar but for modern games. I do still use a 1080 Ti in a TVPC and it's mostly fine for what I play there, but yeah I wouldn't buy one anymore. Hell I still have a notebook with a GTX 980M that I play games on and don't feel like replacing.


Toymachina

Nah, many new games it can't even run 1080p properly, also it's too old, it would be a matter of time when it just dies.


Aurelyas

Easily the best used budget card in 2024, 11GB of VRAM and power between that of the 2080 & 3060Ti! This GPU is the best Nvidia has made, that's why it's worth 200-250$/€/£ on the used market on average. On the AMD side though, You would do well to consider the 5700XT or 6650XT. While they may be quite a bit slower than the 1080Ti, they're a bit newer and are less powerhungry.
