Lol I bought a used 1080 a month or so ago after selling my 980 and block. It’s gotten to the point where the fun of full loop custom watercooling, is subjected to and deminished by the short lived profit maximising strategy of Nvidia. Think core clocks, locked voltages in the context of watercooling. The only reason for this is to ensure sales across the range up to the ridiculously overpriced 1080ti’s. How is this good for enthusiasts? Since when is enthusiasm determined singally on how much you’re willing to spend on a single product? The logic is screwed.
I don’t care about owning the latest and greatest tbh. What I do care about, is one lying dbag of a CEO, monopolising the market while everyone acts oblivious to what is going on.
My anger is sympathetic to the enthusiast community - not my own personal circumstance.
