HELP - BEST graphics card/s for SL's ULTRA setting

[Ryley Nova]

Doubled my framerate in high density areas bye moving from AMD to Nvidia card due to better optimized open-gl drivers.  I noticed a significant increase as well when upgrading my CPU.  I think as long as you have a certain level of GPU then the bottle neck will always be CPU with secondlife.  And even then, script heavy areas like rp sims with HUDs are going to suck regardless.

I wonder with OpenGL going the way of the Doo-Doo Bird,  how much longer even Nvidia will be using that. But I have a gtx 180 and have been considering a jump up to a 30x series, but wonder if it is even worth it as SL is the only "gaming" I do

@Jackson Redstar I sincerely hope that's a 1080!  Did Nvidia ever make a 180?  A friend of mine had a 260 aeons ago.  Oh and from what I've gleaned, 30 series RTX cards are so over the top for SL they refuse to get out of bed for it! 😁
