    Still rocking with a 970. I don’t play enough games that it would matter, and medium/high settings still run 1080p/60fps most of the time since only predatory AAA games use that high of graphics.

      I’ve switched from a 670 to a 9070 XT last week, and I have to say I am enjoying all the local coop in UWQHD with my family that were barred to me before due to old nvidia drivers or lack of fps. Turns out my wife is a natural talent at overcooked.

      Also me with a 1070. I have to take of the door of my computer if I want to play games and not lag (that much) because it can easily get up to ~90C with it on. ;-;

          I think it’s just a cruddy case (dell t3610). I don’t think it was meant to have a 1070 in it because I had to cut a hole in the door for the cables.

      I’m not sure I’ll ever upgrade my 3080 until it dies. Minecraft will run just fine and that’s most of my gaming time.
