    That doesn’t mean it’s good they’re deprecating cards to do it. They were still selling GT1030s new until relatively recently, and the GTX1080 is a perfectly workable card.

    If you think open versions are cool, how about them just open-sourcing the Maxwell & Pascal drivers? Oh, that’s right, they won’t because the “special sauce” is in the driver, not the card BIOS like it is for the Turing & up families.
