I'm actually surprised it's still such a vanishingly small number. The way they were touted as the second coming as if almost every game would be using them and uptake has been pedestrian at best. Can't say I regret not 'just buying it'!

Are people still whinging about people who bought a 2080Ti? Seriously?
If AMD flop then £1500 for a founders edition 3080ti wouldn't be surprising.

Bud, you need to chill a bit. You clearly see things as you see but others have a fair point and a valid point at times. Life is good and no need to be so sensitive

Im telling ya it pure contradiction. If AMD introduce or push something for their cards and it takes ages to get any games to use it its smited down on the forums and laughter reverberating round the 'gaming' circles as a big flop "nobody uses it" etc.

Exactly. But watch out for being an "AMD fanboy" when you mention this..

Ahh good old Greggo. He bought an AMD card once or maybe twice in his lifetime and that was to review stuff on his tech site.
If your comfortable with nvidia inflating the prices to the heights they have now set, then you will never see the point of the regular PC gamer.

I am genuinely surprised to be honest, I knew it wasn't a massive number but I have never checked since launch and had no idea it was that small a number. Almost 1 game every 2 months since launch yet it's the most talked about part of the card.

Some of these are also old games tarted up. I seriously think the 2000 series was a bad time to get a card, period.

Definitely not good enough for a feature that came at such a big premium.
It was. I was very keen to upgrade, always have the money to do so but just didn’t.
kept some settings dialled down on my 1070.
there was no way I was going to pay £300+ (Once I’d sold my card) for the Few extra frames a 2070 could give me and when the supers came out they still couldn’t tempt me as I knew the 30 series wasn’t far away.
