Don't understand why you would consider a 1080 Ti as an upgrade in 2025. There is no longer a justification for using a Pascal card this far out. Even the Titan XP is weak against modern games. Return it to your friend, and get something newer.

Does anyone else have this problem and is there a solution? I have already tried uninstalling / reinstalling. I also have the latest video drivers.

I saw on wccftech that it's only 5% faster than a 5090. I saw somewhere else that it's supposed to sell for $10-15k. 5x-7.5x the price, for a 5% gain. No, thanks.

This is why you have to do some research before attempting to turn an office PC into a gaming rig. Honestly, it isn't even worth it, anymore. Look at the prices for a used Ryzen 5 3600, or 10th gen Core i5 gaming PC. I've seen them as low as $300, with 16 or 32gb and a graphics card, and it's...

Esports titles are often more CPU dependent than GPU dependent.

They launch with low stock, deliberately, to pump up demand, then trickle out more, to keep demand high. If everyone was able to get one on the first day, the buzz would die down in a week, and then sales would plummet.

This new slot "feature" is going to come back to bite them when graphics cards start failing, and the GPU vendors refuse to RMA them because of the physical damage, that is not a result of a manufacturing defect. Asus is going to have a massive class action on their hands to replace all the...

Facebook is bleeding users, and is rapidly becoming the next Myspace, and is doing everything they can to stem the outflow.

It probably wouldn't matter even if it did have 16gb of physical memory. I have a Firepro W8100, which is basically an R9 290 with 8gb of VRAM, instead of the usual 4gb, and when I tested it by cranking up the visuals to use as much of the VRAM as possible, it became almost unusable. The extra...

What will you do when Windows 12 comes out?

You couldn't expect Microsoft to keep supporting USB 1.0 devices indefinitely. It's time to move on.

Someone selling mass quantities of used graphic cards, and they're not a recycler, should be a huge red flag. There were a lot of mining farms being broken up when Ethereum stopped using proof of work, and there are still some sellers trying to liquidate those cards today. And include their past...

In 1943, there literally was a market for only 5 computers. Computers were as big as houses, and consumed a power plants worth of electricity every day, in 1943, and were insanely expensive. There wern't even many governments on the planet that could afford them, nevermind corporations, and...

The MSRP quoted by Nvidia is always for base model cards, not custom models. You're making it sound like Best Buy is scalping, when they're not. The prices for the custom models may well be appropriate. Higher factory clocks, more efficient coolers, and other features like lighting, or custom...

E Emulators are never the same as playing on actual hardware.
