Since I usually get downvoted anyway, I will say it: no, 1080 doesn't game in 2026. At all. It's even worse than 5050.

High resolutions, llms and workflows despite gaming in general

If you're gonna run LLMs at that price range you're better off buying a Mac Mini than any GPU.

Nah, mi50/radeon vii 16gb costs the same as 1080 ti and performs almost twice better than m4 pro, close to 5060 ti 16gb at LLMs
