If you’re not doing huge models a used 2080ti can be picked up on eBay for 300 ish bucks which is pretty capable (best price to performance cuda core count I think)— just a little lacking in ram for huge stuff.
1080 ti is still a beefy card, about the same performance as a 3060 ti / 4060, just without the AI core shenanigans and more VRAM - not bad for a 6 year old card. I recently updated from a 1060 to a 3060 ti, which gave me roughly 50% extra performance, you’d have to grab a 4080/4090 to do the same. But yeah, not fast enough anymore if you do 4k or high hz stuff.
I’m never going to be able to afford an upgrade.

My Steam Deck replaced my old laptop and I keep it at work since its usually not busy. No need for it at home since my PC is faster.
What card do you have?
1080ti. Still strong but starting to show it’s age with newer games and AI stuff.

I use it for mostly gaming, AI is just a bonus. I’m looking for a big upgrade if I can ever afford one.

At this point I’m just waiting a few more generations. I don‘t think there going to be reasonably affordable any time soon.
