From what I've read, they are based on new architecture, so it makes sense they would be more expensive due to R&D costs and changes in production.

Some day I will get a new graphics card. Or maybe I'll just play games on my Switch forever.

Edit: Also, Dead Cells continues to be good. And I might pick up Hand of Fate 2 on my switch at some point if it ever goes on sale.

There wasn't really any demand for a >1000$ card when the 1080 came out, really. Until crypto there wasn't really a reason to make cards in the range between the high end consumer and the like Hollywood level cards for CGI processing (which are like 10$k).

i still think is not worth upgrading untill a new generation is out

my rx480 still runs everything perfectly, and no new tech to really push it, so... i rather drop down graphics a little bit and get a new card when the new generation of consoles demand it

Same. There is nothing on PC that I want to play that badly that demands a new graphics card. Maybe when cyberpunk hits the shelves, but I can plan for when that happens. Or just get in on my PS4, just like I did with the Witcher 3.

Makes me want to get the new ti just cause it’s so powwrful but yeah if I’m being honest even if I used my PC way more (I mostly use the switch and ps4) my 1080 is still totally sufficient (and that’s setting aside the fact that my most played pc games of the last year are stardew and slay the spire lol)

I think maybe I’ll spring for something crazy when consumer VR is a little more compelling or smth

If you have a 1080 or better there's probably no point in upgrading unless you have the time + money to get it done. My 1080 still plays all games at max settings and will probably be sufficient for a couple more years at the least.

edit: also eieio Airpods are surprisingly good. I got some for my birthday and I'm completely surprised.

seeing as how I had my hd6950 for 6 years, i'd say the 1080ti will last me a while

i'll probably upgrade when the cards can handle 4k at > 60 fps well and when 4k 144hz panels come out at a decent price

I had been avoiding getting them entirely because a friend told me to and I knew she’d gloat if i got them and liked them as much as she said I would, then i got them last week and they do in fact own and she did in fact gloat (we ended up making a bet where if i lost I had to buy them so that I could do it out of obligation instead of on her recommendation lol)

Until I hear about the production costs of “high end” graphics going down, I’m in no rush to spend a ton of money. The number of companies that can dump that can dump 80-100 million into a video game is only going to get smaller.

I'm basically a walking contradiction atm so don't feel bad. Major Android elitist that somehow made a switch to the iphone X and now I have Airpods. Something is wrong with me, but I don't really regret the purchase because my phone is amazing tbh.

@Corsair I went from a HD5870 to a 1080 lol. Had that one for like 5-6 years as well.

Not sure man. These prices for the 20XX series dont look like they are anywhere close the old cards to push them down.

The notch on my iphone isn't even noticeable. Helps that any IOS app worth getting is developed to work around the notch.

andy can i buy smooth leather ysl boots

I haven't followed slp since hedi left, I heard they changed the cut of their denim and quality has gone down a bit
not sure if it applies to their footwear
I guess you can try to find some deadstock from pre-ss2017?

also slp is a very specific look, are you sure it's the type of style you're looking for?

I definitely want some black chelsea boots and evrything else I’ve seen hasn’t been nearly as...slim?... as I want? Like I don’t like the bulkier soles and shit on a lot of them. There’s a store close to me so I’m just gonna try some on this week I think. Probably want a pair of less fancy more workbooty boots too i guess. And then the leather too ofc, clothes own.

if you're looking for slim chelsea boots then I recommend carminas to start out and edward greens if you want something high quality
SLP chelsea soles are blake welts, which makes the toebox slim but also less 'bang for the buck'

people buy slp for the high functioning heroin addict look so if you don't ahve the rest of the skinny jean grungy rock look, your footwear's going to look out of place

on the other hand, if you are comfortable with that look, then there's very few brands that are substitutes for slp footwear

nah recouping R&D is secondary they've been plenty profitable for the last 10 years or however long they claim they've been developing the tensor core

there's literally no competition ofc they're going to price it however they want

idek if ray tracing is going to improve fps in games that aren't taking advantage of it.
doesn't the game have to call specific apis/libraries when rendering shit to use parts of the hardware?
