Huh yeah, I actually dig the idea of intentionally putting together and earmarking a "future classic" system. Sure beats mournfully browsing eBay, seeking to replace old 3Dfx and GUS cards we (me) thoughtlessly got rid of years ago. 👍

And at 10 years old, the hardware is at its least loved and most likely to be discarded - hang on to those 1080s!

yup , those 1080ti 's buy them now as cheap and will be future classics 100%. probably the most saught after card of the non RTX era , the pinnacle of the end of an era in gpus.
