the best card of the last decade and one of the most legendary cards ever made. it will go down in history as the longest lived gpu of all times.
The majority of the 10 series was way ahead of it's time. Pascal is the best GPU generation of all time
Even though I have a 1080, the 1080Ti was better value imo and I wish I had gotten that instead.
I hoped so. Sadly my 1080 caught fire 2 months after warranty ended and someone at EVGA declined my warranty claim because of it.
I am still playing all latest AAA with it and pretty amazing
POS like all MSI shyt
The GTX 1080 was a true BEAST when it came out! 👍👍
I still have mine for over 5 years now and I still use it for gaming in 1080p. It still holds up in modern games. Just unbelievable what card this is. ❤️❤️
It's an amazing card, it's a shame it now lives in the 1080 Ti's shadow. Because the 1080 non-Ti is still an amazing card!
you'd be amazed just how ok even a 1050TI still holds too it's madness
@@ProYamYamPCmaybe you can run an update on Cyberpunk 2077 with the latest patch? I think the GTX 1080 benefits from it. 😎
@@thedutchfisherman7078 I’ve since sold this 1080. However, I do have a 1080 Ti👀
@@ProYamYamPC that would be great too! Maybe an before and after the latest patch comparison to see the difference? 👍👍
Well since my GTX1080TI has just rounded 6 years and still going strong at 1080p, it's clearly a winner for me. I have only gone from Max setting to High in most new games today.
I can’t believe it’s 6 years old now😅 It’s amazing to see how well it’s aged
I did my very first build with this card. I've since upgraded to a 6900xt and now 4090 but that 1080 was soo good. I built a pc for my nephew with it. He's able to play all his games in 1080p.
Im running baldurs gate 3 on gtx1080 and 1440p ultra wide. Totally happy.
I still have my 1080 and am thinking of upgrading soooomewhat soon, but still I don't truly feel the NEED yet. It's insane what they did when they released this card.
My advice is: don’t upgrade unless if you feel like you need it. I did the same when I got my 3080 when I was perfectly happy with my 1080 Ti😂
trust me no need... if you dont play new AAA crap and you should not..!
@@MrMaksuz 1080 can play aaa titles like rdr2 cyberpunk on high to ultra if using fsr 3.0 with mods and medium if no fsr thats still pretty good no ones wanna play crap spacefeild whatever that crap is
@@Crystalized94 thats good to know, but no need to play cyberpunk… its crap game.. people only play it because its pc demanding
Great video. Just what I wanted to see. Maybe in future videos, put the graphics settings like “high” or “low” on your graphs and maybe also put a watermark on the graphs as well if people want to screenshot it and share it, since they’re good information.
Still a valid GPU. Fine tune the game selection and your good to go.

I was think of building a little throwback build with this random 12th gen i3 my girlfriend got me for Christmas (I have no idea why she got me this i3 but it's still awesome) and adding in some of these cheap 1080s I've been seeing on eBay. it was only a dream having a 1080 or 1080ti when I was broke as a joke, but now I can build a nice budget build with this card. I just want to get the experience I wished for years ago.
A 12th gen i3 would pair well with a GTX 1080! Back in the day I really wanted these and it was nice to test it out!
@@ProYamYamPC i have the exact same MSI 1080 with and AMD Ryzen 5 2600 and she still shreds still don't feel like upgrading theres no need, the PS5 has games like cyberpunk looking pretty and smooth enough for me anyway, so I live the 4k stuff for the ps5 and the 1080 for the pc, sense on TV I'm good with 60 fps even 30, but on PC is where i like to raise those numbers
I have the same (GTX 1080 MSI Gaming X), and honestly, I don't feel the need to upgrade it. It performs perfectly for everything at 1080p on high/ultra graphics settings, and I'll only upgrade when games using Unreal Engine 5 (or similar graphic engines with UE5-level graphics) come out that are truly worth it. Recently, I played A Plague Tale Requiem on high graphics at 60 fps with an FSR Mod I found online, so I really don't want to upgrade it. Plus, the economy doesn't help, haha
i cant believe that u only have 1.1k subs, u should have atleast 100k good video!
Thank you mate! One day I'll be there!
Very happy with my GTX 1080 asus rog strix. At 1440p still a beast.
Liked and commenting for the almighty algorithm. I had a 5600g. Mine did 4.7GHz all core simply by clicking the Gaming mode option on in the MSI UEFI. It used less voltage than the aggressive out of box PBO settings for the B450 Tomahawk. You can also just set it to ECO mode with the +200MHz boost option for a bit of extra performance while lowering the package power. That should be an attractive option for you U.K. folks where power is more expensive than the U.S.
Thanks for letting me know! I never thought of OCing the 5600G. If I put my Dark Rock 4 on it, it should fly😂
Bought the MSI Gaming X GTX 1080 when it came out. Finally replaced it a few months ago with a MSI Suprim X RTX 4090. Let's see if this new card lasts as long as my old one. Still using a 1440P monitor (but it is a 240 refresh OLED).
Just got a 1080 for $100 usd and its a nice upgrade for me since i was using a 1060.
You scored a great deal there mate!
Crazy how the 1080 still outclassed a lot of cards that are still available in the store shelves in 2023. The 1070 and 1080 are truly goat.
still using my 1080 now.
$499, $699, and now $1199….big fat middle finger to nvidia. 10 series is legendary.
The 10 series is the best ever released. 2016/17 was good for PC gaming!
absolutely legendary
Now that its finally time to get an upgrade it really is amazing how powerful the 1080 has been 😱
Got mine 4 years ago used from a friend and it's still going stupid strong.
Just upgraded my Ryzen 2600 to a 5600X and I'm set. Love this card so much!
hi, i am pentium on tiktok. You came up first when i searched up 1080 in 2023 wich is amazing dude! love this vid and keep shit up
Nice to see you here mate! Thanks for the support.
Hi guys a 1080 for 185 dollars its a good price for this beast?
yes
Still rockin my 1080 founders edition I bought brand new back in 2016.
Going to pass it down to my daughter here soon, building 2 pcs next year with the 4090.
Loved the review I have at the moment a ASUS GeForce GTX 1050Ti 4GB ROG STRIX Graphic Card... I am amazed with just how much more power 1080 as to offer was going to get a 3050 RTX bit out of my price range going to buy a 1080 thank you os much for your knowledge
1080 is insane. What a card! Nvidia will never do it again, hahaha
I picked up an MSI Armor GTX 1080 before the Ti launched, and I'm still using it to this day lol. It starts to show it's age in some games, but dang did I get my money's worth. Thinking of throwing money at the wall and putting together a 4k 144hz build, but probably not.
When they made the GTX 1080 it was top choice to use for quite sometime cause it was too good. Even now the GTX 1080 is still more than capable of playing current released games.
I bought an used EVGA GTX 1080 8GB Super Clock for $50 dollars back in 2020 during the time finding a GPU was next to impossible. Then August 2022 I ended up picked up an used Intel 8th Gen i7 8700 processor and Asus ROG Strix Z390-E motherboard for $50 dollars total.
same setup, its time for a upgrade
bro that was a bargain , here in europe/Ireland you'd be luck to find a GTX 1080 under 300€ used, USED. u have to line up at websites to have them in stock at reasonable prices
@@yosz9746 just got a used gtx 1080 for 30£ here in england
50 DOLLARS???? FOR A I7 8TH GEN AND MOBO?????
@@SniffiestHalo1 yep. 😁
Interesting stuff. I find it comical how slow the memory of Pascal cards is compared to Ampere or ADA LL. Still, aside from RT and DLSS, it would seem the 1080 cards are still holding up okay. I know Pascal is not going to be supported forever though. I don't know if Pascal is worth buying now, especially with prices on Ampere getting much lower and stuff from AMD being a good price (RDNA 2 cards for example). Still impressive though.
It's because all newer GPUs have GDDR6/X memory. But Pascal is still hanging on in there
Good content! Good luck with your youtube journey👍
Thank you mate! I’m glad you enjoyed the content🙌
I've got the exact same. love her. 7 years of playing every game in nice fps. This year she's going to retire (gifted to my younger brother)
Good to hear you have some good gaming memories with the 1080! That’s what I do with my old GPUs, I pass them down to my brothers😂
I’m just about to buy this card!
Upgraded a 980ftw to a 1080 in 2018 and it's still going strong.
not to be annoying but theoretically how much longer do you see the 2080ti holding up? I have 3fan strix model with a i9 10850k and I’m genuinely curious how long the 11gb’s should hold up.
For many years yet. It's similar to a 3070 in levels of performance and it still supports the latest APIs. You'll be set for a good while yet!
Thanks for the input 🙏🏾 I have a msi ventus x3 3070ti in my other build. The 2080ti benchmarks better & holds higher frames than both my old zotac amp white 3070 & the 3070ti so I just keep the 2080ti as my primary gaming card. Though I’ve never compared the 2080ti to the 3070ti while using Raytracing in gaming. I always assumed it performed better because the 11gb vs 8gb.
@@meechg0stupid110 you are correct, 11gb is the real deal now. 2080ti still has firepower, I would even say that it would be better in the long run than 3070ti, because you can OC it to 3070ti levels, but keep the VRAM. 8GB is not gonna cut it for 1440p high+ settings anymore😢
great vid mate!! I still remember when i built my computer, back in 2016, i7 6700k and this beast!! Same model, MSI Gaming.. Now im upgrading my monitor to 2k ultra wide and hoping this guys will tank him
"2k ultra wide"
Oh my, you're an idiot.
How funny, I just bouth a this card from you :) And I thought to check reviews on this and your video is the first I clicked on :D. What a quicidence :D
Congratulations on winning the auction! Thank you for buying and coming along and watching the content.
I had a GTX 1080 in an old system with a broken CPU, and built a new mid-range gaming PC with it last month, yes, in February 2024. Instead of using the old x470 motherboard, I paired the GTX 1080 with a new mATX gigabyte 550M (budget) board, and a Ryzan 5 5600G. I reused old DDR4 3200 RAM. The results? I ran cyberpunk 2077, on Ultra settings in 1080p, and got 61 FPS. In high settings, it jumped to 71 FPS. This GPU is certified beast. If tech websites and review sites were honest, they would tell us that we won't have to upgrade our GPUs for about 5 to 8 years if we buy the right one.
I'm using a Zotac GTX 1080 Amp Extreme one of the sort after cards during it's time and it's running at 100mhz faster than the stock GTX1080. Running on i7 3rd Gen CPU on Asus Z77 Motherboard, recently I just upgraded it to run a M.2 NVME Gen3 x4 SSD and oh boy my old 2013 PC is fast than ever.
GTX 1080 is still a beast, picked one up for $150 and they are usually like $300 + here in New Zealand - Haha, if I get 1 year out of it, I'll be happy as!
Yep, 1080 (and TI) are just legendary, i've run my 1080TI untill it couldn't anymore. Getting a 1080 for a new gamer soon, love these cards.
ive bought this gpu as a replacement for 1060 6gb and it is amazingly fast! still a little faster than rtx 3060 ..
I thought it was on par or just ahead of the 2060. Either way though, the 1080 is still a great GPU and it still has a lot of life left in it!
I just bought this card to replace my 1060 3gb on a budget 😅 but I did not try it yet, how is it as an upgrade?
@@user-gb7dn8rp1c i can say i feel it pretty good .. much more fps everywhere
@@user-gb7dn8rp1c it is LITERALLY 88% BETTER than 1060 3GB trust me
Rtx 3060 is faster maybe not by much but it is faster
Need some advice. I have a gtx1080 with a 4690k cpu which I think is causing all my bottlenecks while gaming. So I’m on the hunt to upgrade my cpu+mb+ram. Found some great micro centre bundle deals for 7900x and 7800x3d but I’m afraid these will shift the bottlenecks to the gpu. So what should I upgrade my cpu to - I was considering the 7900x/7800x3d purely in terms of future proofing when I can invest in a newer gpu. I usually game at 4k, dial down everything to get around 49-60 fps but most of the time it’s a struggle. So what should my upgrade path be, kindly provide some guidance
If you just play games on your system at 4K, getting a Ryzen 7700X would be just fine. At 4K, your CPU becomes less of a bottleneck, depending on the games you play. If you need the extra cores, CPUs like the 7900X are great too.
@@ProYamYamPC Thank you. So in your opinion, the gtx 1080 would deliver 60 fps at 4k with either of your Ryzen recommendations? w it’s dependent on the game but I ask in general
Dude your card ran super cool. Mine runs in the mid 70’s even with a thermal paste change. What’s your ambient temps like?
When I tested this, it was winter. I reckon the ambient temps were around 18C in the room at the time.
@@ProYamYamPCahh gotcha, yeah I was going to say your temps at 100% utilization is my idle temps running dual monitors 😂
Is a system with the following a good modern gaming pc?
I7 5960x (8 cores, 16 threads)
GTX 1080
32G RAM
1T SSD drive
700W PSU.
Not sure what mobo is in it so not sure if I can upgrade to an NVME.
Guy an hour from me wants $300.
Yes its worth it. However upgrading would mean chaning the motherboard and cpu.
sata vs nvme doesnt make a big difference at all. Loading times, boot times etc. Get a big hdd for more games if you need it
I finally upgraded my GTX 960 I bought second hand in 2016 to the GTX 1080 and it has been amazing for me so far.
The 1080 is a massive upgrade over a 960! Good to hear you're having a good time with it!
Hi Proyam, Is Seasonic Gold rated 550w psu enough for GTX 1080 Ti?
@@alleplayz05 probably not. I recommend a 650W PSU with a 1080 Ti. You might get away with it
awesome bro thank you for the video. I was wondering if my 1080 could handle 1440p but didn't want to buy a monitor to test it myself. looks like it will do just fine until i'm ready to upgrade the GPU again
I have a 4070 and 1080 two system and still prefer 1080p 240hz no vsync over 1440 or 4k. Smooth game play trumps rez.
great video btw 🙏🏾
Still very happy with my MSI GTX 1080 Gaming Z😁
dropping u a sub u definetly deserve it
1080 seahawk x 1700x x 64gb ram (video editing) I don’t think I’ll need an upgrade unless I want more than 1440 60hz monitor
Same amount as ram, but 5800x/1080 and 1080p/75hz excellent what I use for
@@Jay-bs7fd can’t wait till I upgrade to new zen. I’d turn my current rig into a server, maybe a NAS. The 5000 series is 50% faster than first gen
I also see crazy performance spikes when I do max the ram speeds
can i run 1440 p with ryzen 5 3600 and gtx 1080?
As a casual gamer, my 1080 Ti works well. The 1060 1070 1080 drove the cyptro economy! First gen cards that optimizes VR support.
i have one in my rig now and its only struggle is online vr like sim racing and things. chugs through tarkov and all the other harsh games pretty well
I still have mine TI here and playing very well!
I have i7 4790k with GTX 1080 8GB founders edition still killing it with any games 2023 .
still @ 1080 GTX and happy I bought Forza 5 and everything runs on very high textures on Ultra and I have great 60-70 FPS at a resolution of 1440P
How is the Gtx 1080 Founders edition right now?
What’s the best driver now for this gpu ? Thanks
Rolling out the big guns and I was gunning for it turning about to be a 1070ti
GTX 1080 is still a banger for 1080p and 1440p I don’t care what anyone says. GTX 1070 is lowest card worth considering nowadays for newer titles.
The 1070 Ti is a forgotten GPU. I'd love to make some content on it!
Bought one few days ago for $150. Performs very well.
I am still using the 1080 still runs amazing
It’s still an incredible GPU! It’s great to see the 10 series is still very relevant even though it’s 7 years old at this point.
Still rocking mine at 1440p. I don't feel the need to upgrade as yet as it runs everything with good fps.
Good video and good gpu
i like the 1000 series they have aged well
Pascal has aged insanely well
@@ProYamYamPC I was still gaming on a 1050TI until last year and then i got a 1080 xD bro no complaints big upgrade but even the 1050TI surprised me with a lot of games getting over 60 fps
if i get one more..as duel card will it be wery god then
I have this exact card and an i5 8400. only cost me 290 for the whole build, (used)
You’ve got a good build there!
i have the same build, by any chance u don't have some bottleneck in Warzone 2.0?
Just make sure to have good ram and fast ssd
@@fifaheroesg I don't know what that means. It works pretty fine at 1080p and high settings.
@@PuppetMasterdaath144 I have a hdd, my ram is normal ddr4 @3200
i built my pc on christmas 2017 as a sixth grader it's so weird hearing it talked about like it's old 😭😭
Someone selling a i7 - 6700k with a GTX 1080 nearby for $200 interesting deal. I’m happy with my 13700k/RX6950XT
That 1080 looks exactly like an old r9 380 i had back in the day. lol
The 1080 Ti was a glorious mistake by Nvidia.
Still rocking a EVGA GTX 1080 FTW. Best card from the best GPU manufacturer. Too bad EVGA is gone.
I'm still using that MSI Gaming X 1080 card and still smacking kids on Warzone 2 lol
my 6 year old system with a gtx 1080 and a i7-6700k is starting to show its age although still playing @ 1080p what should be my next upgrade thoughts?
I'm about to upgrade my 1080 to a 4090 (ROG STRIX) and would recommend you to do the same :D
I got one in my laptop, but the CPU holds it back quiet a bit. :(
still have my old 1080ti as a backup.
Pinnacle of efficiency, got the 1070ti version of this and with an undervolt at 1.75ghz its pulling only 90w while playing most older games at 4k, not gonna upgrade untill im gonna get a 4070 for the same money (100£)
Is a good video, but the ryzen 5 5600g is a really weak cpu to pair it with the gtx 1080, you can get more performance if you pair it with a higher cpu like the i5 13600k or even i7 if you want a better build, or if you like amd i will go for a ryzen 7 5800x minimum. Also gta is a high demanding cpu game, so it depends more on the cpu than in the gpu. The 1080 is just a beast that we still have to pair it with recent cpus of the decade to get to his fullest potential.
Don't get this card high failure rate that MSI knew about but decided to have you play the sucker.
Is i5 12400 a good upgrade from an i5 7600k GTX 1080 gigabyte edition combo?
An i5 12400 would be a great upgrade! The extra threads will help out a lot!
@@ProYamYamPC yes I was thinking about it a lot, I'm actually getting bottleneck, 1080 it's going to be so smooth paired with a newer generation of CPU, 300€ and it makes the trick probably
That was my card, yesterday I upgraded to the 6950XT but I had not upgraded my CPU, so it’s bottleneck right now, waiting for my new MB and CPU to arrive tomorrow
Is it still good for streaming recording?
It’s ok but I would recommend a newer 20 series card at least if you want to record
do to the vram requirements the GTX 1080 would do fine now days
Is this card good for video editing?
Yes, the CUDA acceleration works great
how good this gpu would be with ryzen 7 2700x ?
It will be ok. Might be leaving some performance on the table depending on the game. I would recommend getting a Ryzen 3000 CPU though
i cant really say what the best is iv not long moved over to pc and iv only had this rtx 3070
Mine is still putting up a fight at 1440p. RIP gtx era.
Good to hear your 1080 is still kicking mate🔥 Which games are you playing?
Should I get this or rx580
GTX bro
pair it with a 15" 1080p oled, mount screen a few feet above bed > get an awesome controller > install steam deck os. and you've got a future-proof steam deck destroyer
The 1080 will be great at 1080p for a good few years yet! Nice setup mate!
Card so good they realized they fuxed up. Subsequently releasing cards with minimal improvements.
Got this card for 85$ I don't need it I have a 3090 I just had to have this card because I couldn't afford it when it came out 😂
What’s the best cpu for lga1150
i7 4790K. Just got to have a beefy cooler.
I was just benchmarking my PC because it was weird that Horizon was quite laggy even on low. Turns out my i5-7400 and GTX 1650S produces 21.8% bottleneck which is crazy. My friend told me to check out the GTX 1080 (or -Ti) and I saw that GPU is way stronger than my current one. I'm like absolutely totally lost in today's technology 😂 The 1080 must've been a love child of nVidia because it is absolutely crazy that it even beats some GPU's that are two generations younger. I'm going to change into that one as it is better in price and would reduce my bottleneck between 0-5%.
It's NVIDIA, not "nVidia".
We have same graphic card mate msi gaming x haha anf its still working fine❤
This one is certainly one of the stronger GTX 1080 models. I love the red theme with these older Gaming X cards too.
GTX 1080 and i5 10400F ... Cheap , and i can play any game , at least 60 fps
That’s a good system you have right there!
I am using gtx 1080, I just started to play gta v and other games and I really appreciate it.
edit: oh yeah I'v been play gta v on my ps3 more lately, I didn't play it back in the day but it still feels nostalgic
I think the GTX 980Ti is probably one of the best cards that's ever come out. We're talking GTX 4050 performance 7 years ago. That's kind of awesome!
yes, yes it is don't buy a graphics card unless you need to not cos its the newest thing.
1080 wasn't really good. 1080 ti was the Godzilla. and still is.
Been using my 1080 for 6 years now. There is still no reason to upgrade if you are playing in 1080p.
How ever, I recently got myself a 1440p oled monitor and I get around 40-50 pfs in 1440p resolution with HDR.
Might go for anoth 80 again, RTX 4080 that is.
I can play at 4k man 😅 medium setting
I play at 4k
