The Geforce GTX 1080 and 1080 Ti are pretty old at this point, with the GPUs being launched back in 2016 and 2017, respectively. As years passed, much faster pixel pushers replaced them. However, gamers with the Pascal flagships can still get away with modest framerates at up to 2K 1440p without frame drops. Especially if the games are well optimized and not demanding on hardware, like Diablo 4 and Street Fighter 6, gamers won't have any issues on such old GPUs.

In terms of raw rendering prowess, the 1080 Ti is almost as powerful as the 3060 Ti. However, you don't get features like ray tracing and temporal upscaling. The new action RPG from Blizzard drops tomorrow. Ahead of the launch, here are the best graphics settings for the GTX 1080 and the 1080 Ti.
