10 Aug 2021 - Graphics card reviewed

This computer hardware provides top end graphics. The GeForce GTX 1080 Ti ELSA Founders Edition 11GB will easily meet recommended system requirements of games released today. This is a strong benchmarker on modern games and can often return excellent frame rates at high and ultra 1080p. But the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti ELSA Founders Edition 11GB can also run 1440p pc system requirements.

DirectX 12 gaming system requirements will be met by this gpu.

Here is a quick game performance synopsis for the AAA games played in 2023. In particular we focus on how well the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti ELSA Founders Edition 11GB runs at Ultra graphics settings and what frames per second it is getting at 1080p, 1440p and 4K monitor resolutions. When considering how well this graphics card can run the 1000 most demanding games available today it can best 990 of the games’ recommended graphics requirements.

First we looked at 1080p resolution for the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti ELSA Founders Edition 11GB performance to explore what sort of benchmarks it would achieve on the popular title Dying Light 2 and saw it deliver reasonable frames per second across the following graphics settings - Low: 156 FPS, Medium: 123 FPS, High: 83 FPS and Ultra: 59 FPS. We proceeded to look at Star Citizen to see how that compared and predict that it will return a strong 94 FPS at Ultra 1080p.

As the PC gaming masses explore larger screen resolutions we decided to run some game checks at 1440p across a few popular games. We discovered the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti ELSA Founders Edition 11GB ran Dying Light 2 to a reasonable performance level. Results across the graphics settings looked like this, Low: 119 FPS, Medium: 94 FPS, High: 63 FPS and Ultra: 45 FPS. Another game researched was Star Citizen with predictions of L: 189FPS, M: 149FPS, H: 100FPS, U: 72FPS. And then we checked graphics card performance on FIFA 22, which returned L: 290FPS, M: 228FPS, H: 154FPS, U: 110FPS at 1440p. Gaming at 1440p with the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti ELSA Founders Edition 11GB is more than capable at running this screen resolution. 1440p Ultra across almost all modern games is going to be fairly standard with this GPU. We would consider moving this hardware up to 4K screen resolutions for PC gaming today.

How many years will the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti ELSA Founders Edition 11GB graphics card play newly released games and how long until you should consider upgrading the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti ELSA Founders Edition 11GB in your PC? 2-3 years of top end gaming before an upgrade

Whats a good PC graphics upgrade for the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti ELSA Founders Edition 11GB? There are no graphics cards on the current market that would provide a big enough increase in performance to warrant upgrading the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti ELSA Founders Edition 11GB.
