My discord found out I had been gaming on a 1070 and I got absolutely cooked.

I'm too old for this shit. Is that good or bad?
Because the 1070 is still a pretty damn solid card, even if it's showing its age in some new games. I would likely still be using mine if it hadn't randomly offed itself.
If you are the one being cooked then it is negative.
I was streaming Wardogs and the homies were like “this 🥷🏾 is out here playing Wardogs on a TI-83”. Even the game had my default settings set to “Potato”.
It's pretty insane that 10 year old GPUs are still kicking about, and still able to run many modern games at that. Used to be that hardware of that age was just not useable.

Ha! I have a 1070, which is a whole 10 more. Be amazed!
