GPUs were SO Much Better 8 Years Ago... I've got the opportunity to try out the GTX 1080 Ti and that brought be back to when huge price to performance increases we're something to expect on a generation of GPUs. Nowadays, the RTX 5080 just released and it is embarrassing how disappointing it is. So how have we slowly come to this point? And what could possibly change?
Here's links to the RTX 5090 and 5080 if wanna get them for some reason:
