IDK, I just scored a 2080 Ti at a good price from a guy I know. I’m very impressed. Not sure what is supposed to be so bad about it.There is demand BECAUSE the 2000 series GPUs were so bad few people dared to upgrade at all.
Actually, 3070 and 3080 are NOT impressive compared to old launches. The 10 series was really impressive.

Nor I! That’s why I only just now did it since it was being unloaded. I never thought what the 2000’s offered was good enough of an upgrade to buy new, which was why I carried on for the whole lifecycle with a Pascal.Fair enough, I would not say that either.
I wouldn't have paid new money though initially.

Hopefully it'll serve you well, I bought my laptop a year in second hand, I simply didn't/don't have the money for top end new.Nor I! That’s why I only just now did it since it was being unloaded.

Their loss. I preordered an Xbox Series X. And a new 65" TV. The Series X is around the 3070 level of power at the same price, the FULL CONSOLE. I'll just wait for next year for the videocard upgrade. I'd get a PS5 digital before a new GPU. New consoles are really good value.
