If my 1080 gives up in the near future, I'll probably just give up AAA gaming. BG3 is literally the only game in the last 5 years I have loved which would require more than a potato to run.

Honestly I have a gtx1080 and I can run BG3 at close to ultra settings for around 30-60fps. I think my actual issue is my CPU I have an i7 3770 which came out in like 2012. And I have like ddr 3 ram from 10 years ago as well.

My SO upgraded to a Ryzen 5600 and 6600 GPU from a 1050TI and some integrated old CPU and saw massive improvements for BG3. I don't know the integrated CPU but I think that made the difference for this game. Loading in went from crashes or naked people to no issue at all.

Same here but with an i7 6700K. If I happen to find a decent deal on something like a 12th gen i5 or i7 and chuck in an extra 16gb ram then I think I'd be all set for another couple of years. Although I still don't desperately need an upgrade, everything works well enough except for maybe that one nightclub map in Ready or Not with more npcs than my cpu can keep up with.
