Just like I rode my 1080ti for a long time it looks like I'll be running my 3080 for awhile lol.

I hope in a few years when I'm actually ready to upgrade that the GPU market isn't so dire... All signs are pointing to no unfortunately.

Same here.

Only upgraded when my 1080 died, so I snagged a 3080 for an OK price. Not buying a new card untill this one dies. Nvidia can get bent.

Maybe team red next time….

I'm extremely petty and swore off Nvidia for turning off my shadow play unless I made an account for my 660, had to downgrade my driver to get it back without an account. I only have an Nvidia card now because I got a 3080ti for free after my rx 580 died.

I can get behind petty if for the right reasons, and yours for sure is!

I hate everyone and their uncle requiring accounts for even the most menial of tasks. We all know it’s only for gathering and selling data, so kindly fuck off.
Philips requires an acc for me turning on my BT nightstand light, a Hue Go. I’d rather spend 10 hours finding a workaround
