Tier of Nvidia GPU release

[NightSt@lk3r]

1080 Ti still a wanted gpu by many gamers 6 years later.

nothing really comes close does it, many of the older gpu in his list went out of fashion faster than elton johns glasses

Still running old trusty 1080Ti in my sim rig, amazing GPU especially under water cooling.

Probably. I had one.

Think I ended up with a Voodoo card after that.

No it wasnt a Matrox card, pretty sure of that.

Thinking about it, it could have been a Diamond Multimedia card, that sort of rings a bell and they did a few 8mb/16mb cards around that time. I reckon it was that or one of the Savage S3/S4 models.

Generally I don’t feel particularly old, however, this thread is changing that!

Yup doing more research the Radeon 9000 pro was released mid 2002, 9800 pro was release late 2003 and I remember having both of those - not necessarily upon release of course.

So I guess the dates do sort of match for the savage S3.

9800 pro was a amazing card. even after 6 or 7 years it was still doing really well in games.

It wasn't bad.

The one I replaced it with (I think) was a Sapphire Radeon X1800XT that thing was a beast, and there was a higher tier card also.

Had that for years and donated it to a mate who used it for years after that.

Card had really cool artwork on it as well.

I also remember the 7900GTO, i purchased one of those from OcUK when they first came out, 7900GTX performance for half the price.
