Yes, PCIe 3.0 is backwards compatible with 2.0. -
gaming What was your first steam game?
Azure Envy replied to DeadRightNowBoi's topic in Media Discussion
CS 1.6 when they were rolling out Steam to deliver patches. Think WON was still a thing. -

That would be perfect if I could find a deal on a 1080Ti. Hitting those high refresh rates is tough even with what I got. Shame I can't pick up an tensor/RT board and drop it in alongside. $800/1200 is steep af but for half that I might go in on RT since I already have a GPU. Then again, I always wanted one of those PhysX boards way back when. Fun times. -

I'm not surprised in the least. If RT really is the future -- it does looks awesome in action, so I hope it turns out to be more than just a curiosity. Given NVIDIA's push, it might be? That said, it's still a bit early for that. For $1200, dropping below 60fps at only 1080p is pretty weak. That's the early adopter tax along with the "our only competition is Pascal" tax. -

Without apples-to-apples benchmarks, we don't know for sure... but you're probably right. Missed out on that $300 GTX 1080 today... sold out before I could even get to the link. -

4 to 5 years is a pretty good run imo. 20 years ago, you'd be upgrading your desktop every other year just to keep up. In 4-5 years I'd have gone through two graphics cards anyway so as far as a laptop that lasts that long is concerned, a grand every 5 ain't so bad for something you can carry around. -
PC Gamer Perspective: Worst Time To Get Into PC Gaming

I'm just amused my 980 Ti is selling for $200 more than I paid for it two years ago. I'd sell it, but... games. -
Happy birthday my friend
