You can buy them new for somewhat reasonable prices. What people should really look at is used 1080ti's on ebay. They're going for less than $150 and still play plenty of games perfectly fine. It's the budget PC gaming deal of the century.
Lot of those games are also hot garbage. Baldur's Gate 3 may be the only standout title of late where you don't have to qualify what you like about it.
I think the recent layoffs in the industry also portend things hitting a wall; games aren't going to push limits as much as they used to. Combine that with the Steam Deck-likes becoming popular. Those could easily become the new baseline standard performance that games will target. If so, a 1080ti could be a very good card for a long time to come.
not in my country lol. getting used cards were already the norm before, for a while you could literally only get used ones for a good price on aliexpress.
and now our gvmnt imposed 100% tax on anything from china, so its really just not affordable.

it probably the best performance per dollar u can get but a lot of modern games are unplayable on it.
