Reddit take

Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • I'm using a ~8 year old laptop with a GTX 1080 and it's not doing too bad.
  • I mean, you can still play games at 1440p low with a GTX1080
  • the gpu is... surprisingly adequate even today, it should run 1080p medium in nearly anything (except mandatory ray tracing games since it lacks the necessary hardware)
  • Gtx 1080 🗣🗣🔥🔥 best value 🗣🗣🔥🔥

Cons

  • Hello, my current build is the 7700k paired with the GTX 1080.
  • On a 1440p monitor, the GTX 1080 is definitely the bottleneck
  • I play on 1080p 144hz and want an upgrade to my GTX 1080.
  • The 2600 was bottlenecking my gtx1080.
  • Played the BF6 open beta and finally realized my old 1080 is finally just not cutting it even on lowest settings.

At the moment, the main gaming bottleneck in their system is the GPU - I repasted the GTX 1080 and overclocked it in MSI afterburner, but only so much you can squeeze out of a 8gb VRAM card of that vintage.

Btw, have you ever experienced any issues shutting down your proxmox instance? I had that problem for a while with my GTX 1080... But it seems to have sorted itself out after an update from proxmox.
