Gigabyte Radeon RX 7800 XT Gaming OC 16G Graphics Card, 3X WINDFORCE Fans

His 1080ti was a gigabyte…

Other than FG and efficiency its general performance is worse than the 3080 which I got for £649 over 3 years ago and as the resolution increases the 192 bus impacts performance even more.

You love your 3080 so much man!

I've been doing some 'easyshuffling' TM lately and upgraded from my 3080 to a 4090 for circa £250

Didn't think it was possible these days!

How on Earth did you manage that!?

He's right though. I'm in the same boat, no meaningful upgrade other than a 4090 for me.

Ordered a Sapphire 7800XT Nitro + from Overclockers.

He has a buyer for his 1080ti for £175

£344 upgrade cost

Thanks everyone

Looking back over Nvidia offerings I feel they are taking the urine from their customers.

The 1080ti though Is one of the best GFX cards ever engineered...Its legendary

My favourite card tbh, bought it on release and rocked it until the 3080. In fact, i'm refitting it into another PC tomorrow, a friend's. Still a capable card.

I'd say 7800XT at the min, wouldn't even entertain the 4070/Ti due to the low amount of vRam for Ultrawide (barely passable for 1440p).

Saying it's barely passable for 1440P is ridiculous. From someone who actually games at 1440P.

I'm obviously talking in the longer term and not right now.

It's ultra wide, my 4070 is on a Samsung Q9 UW, he's right it's barely passable even with all the DLSS 2.5/3 whistles.

Edit. Wasn't being negative, but it's only got 12Gb combined with the 192 bus, it's live in the moment limitations will no doubt equate to my 79XTX getting moved into that rig next gen.

I appreciate that, but the comment I was responding to was regarding 1440P. Anyway seems OP has found his card, enjoy!

He'll be really happy with it

I run 7800XT at ultrawide and its brilliant (not even one that gets recommended - the xfx "Qick")
