6800gt about 12 years old.

oh you said primary..... haha... 980ti.

I too used to upgrade quite often, but this 980ti is doing well enough for right now.

7870 about 3 years, dead now but it's probably older than that.

RX 480 probably next card.

22 months+ 970 SLI < 38 months GTX 580 SLI < 25 months GTX 295 < 20 months 8800GT < 25 months 7800GT

Can't find any other details apart from my Ti4600


Better than I thought tbh

My 980 Ti is 6 months old. Before that the last card I bought was a GTX 780 in Oct 2013, though I'd been using a GTX 970 since March 2015 as an RMA replacement for the 780.

That's the longest I've been between GPU purchases, before the 780 I had a 680 for a 126 months, a 570 for 18 months before that and a 5850 for 14 months before that (what a beast). Prior to that it was a 4870 for 18 months, an X1950 PRO for 2 years, a 6800 GT for about 18 months and my 9800 PRO for 2 years (approximations of course).

290X bought on release so coming up to three years old. Time for an upgrade!

Around a week, a 1080 FTW, was on an MSI 770 Twin Frozr for a couple years prior to that.

My main rig has a FuryX and my backup rig has an RX480. My laptop has two 6990M in so they are the oldest, must be about 3 years old now.

I got back into PC gaming about 5yrs ago, at that time i built a cheap AMD dozer 8120 rig. At the time the AMD 6850's were around 100pound so i bought one of them, not long after there was one on offer for 65pound so i whacked another in and crossfired them which was ace. Unfortunately when i bought watchdogs, along with many other problems it didnt like crossfire, so i sold the pair and bought a single R9 280 3GB which i still have. Soon to be an Rx480 though.

Reporting in with Fermi 5xx with more than 5 years 570/580

my 570 gtx is quite old id guess at least 5 years ? I got it when it came out...

It is getting close to 6 years now. If not mistaken, release date is in dec 2010.

I've had 4670, 6850/70 (don't remember), 7870 but should have kept the 7970 I bought then sold!

Anyhow it'll be nice to buy a new GPU for once

my 390x is around 3 months old.... 290x is 20-21 months old

Coming on year I think. I usually keep gpus for about 3 years or every second gen.

ATI RADEON 4870 - 6 years old :O

I have two 5870s still running strong from about 2010.

Likewise, never thought that was possible.

7870 here.

560Ti (2011) in one PC and a 770(2013?) in another.

Looking to my next GPU soon to move the 770 to replace the 560Ti. Until recently I've not really seen any major performance increase in my price range.

CF 7870's

Been ondering about a RX480 upgrade but for the games I play at 1080p is it really worth it?
