minus-squareDdCno1@beehaw.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up2·2 months agoI bought an RTX 2080 last year for around 200 bucks. It’s still very competent at 1440p. There are only a few games that lock away the highest texture settings due to this card only having 8 GB of VRAM.
minus-squareGamma@beehaw.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up1·2 months agoConsidering I’m still on 6GB I think I’ll take whatever I can get 😅
minus-squareDdCno1@beehaw.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up1·2 months agoA 2080 is still more powerful than base PS5 and Xbox Series X, so it’ll likely do fine for the rest of this console generation. What’s the rest of your hardware like? I’m asking, because a slow CPU can rather drastically limit the performance of a GPU.
