Question EVGA 1050 TI SC 4GB

[TimGarcia1991]

Anyone still using a 10 Series GPU? I had it inside a Dell Optiplex 3020.

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

I've retired my EVGA GTX 1070 SC Black Edition once I migrated platforms. If your current system does what you need it to do, you don't need to change anything.

Well, yeah. I have MSI GTX 1060 Gaming X 3G in use in my 2nd build. (Main build has MSI GTX 1660 Ti Gaming X.)
And i can get better than this, by having Club3D Radeon HD 7770 Ghz Edition in use in my 3rd build.
I even have my ancient Radeon HD 5450 lying around in working conditions.

So... there's not much of a surprise having older or even ancient GPUs still in use, even today. As long as GPU works and is enough, no point to replace/upgrade it.

I had an 980 ti from evga and couldn't really use it anymore. The lack of vram and optimization sent the card to gpu graveyard. That maybe my favorite gpu ever. They just don't make like that anymore.

yeah gtx 1080 was my favourite - when i upgraded from radeon 580 and i5 8600
it was a whole new experience , i was using gtx 1080 with i7 9700K
and to this day it is my favourite system i ever owned with the fractal R5 case and focus 750 ,
that system was a beast - maxing out everything at 1080p back in a day ...
my friend is still using gtx 1080 with ryzen 7700x to play cs2 , dota and some other games .

i upgraded to 2070 super basically for free few years ago
and now i´m still waiting for a worthy replacement for a reasonable price
although 2070s is perfectly fine for cs2 and some older games i play so i´m not in a hurry .
especially looking at the state of todays gpu market .
