Because the card is so scarce, netizens are rumored that NVIDIA is about to revive the once “monster” GTX 1080Ti.
Recently, it was revealed online that NVIDIA could revive the GeForce GTX 1080Ti card to ease the shortage situation.
Accordingly, a member of Quasar Zone (Korea) has just said that he received a brand new GeForce GTX 1080Ti card after sending his old GTX 1080Ti card for warranty.
It’s been 4 years since NVIDIA released the GTX 1080Ti – the flagship card of the Pascal architecture generation. It is equipped with a GP102 GPU chip that greatly improves performance compared to its predecessor, Maxwell.
In short, the GTX 1080 Ti was a hit card at the time, even now it’s still a good gaming card.
The card under warranty was the EVGA SC model, and when he received the EVGA FTW model back, he discovered that it was manufactured in 2021. The EVGA card has a 3-year warranty, so the production of a new batch of GTX 1080Ti cards. to pay the warranty doesn’t sound very reasonable. In addition, now there is an RTX generation to replace this card line.
It is speculated that it may be because the card is too scarce, so EVGA wants to produce more GTX 1080Ti to improve the situation. Even so “weird” that even the GT 1030 was recently revived in Japan (with a new price twice as expensive as when it was released).
Let’s wait and see if NVIDIA is really planning to revive the GTX 1080 Ti like they did with the GTX 1050, GTX 1650 and RTX 2060.
