Superseded but strong value — at clearance pricing, a capable 1440p card for well under $350.
Comfortable VRAM for 1440p gaming.
Well-optimized after 18+ months of updates.
More VRAM than the RTX 5080 (16GB), relevant for AI workloads and 4K texture packs even in the Blackwell era.
New retail units are scarce and priced above MSRP. The used market (eBay, local classifieds) is the only viable path to value.
Over 3 years of driver optimizations make this one of the most stable GPUs available.
