FTW3 Cards - How Long Will They Be Useful?

Chip Diamond on 15/04/2023 - 10:31

I'd like to put another one of these in my second PC. Just want anyone's opinion on how long you'll think it will be until they struggle to keep up with the gaming world. By no means am I a Max FPS junkie. Happy with standard quality etc

    Those FTW3 GTX1650 cards are already pretty weak and not keeping up :/

    HINT: Nobody knows which models you are talking about ;)

    FTW3 range from 10xx to 30xx models :/

    Thanks for correcting me. The 3000 models!

      So you’re asking about longevity of the RTX 3080 cards?

      That’s highly dependent on your expectations. It’ll be fine to some degree for many years to come. Progressively lowering resolution/features as beefier games come out.

      Having said that, it already cannot run Cyberpunk in Overdrive mode. But do you really need that? Probably not for most.

    Yeah exactly. I am not a high res/fps junkie by any means. Thanks for the feedback.

    I expect my 3090 will be relevant for at least another 3 years
