You know, I was thinking about upgrading my graphics card this year along with the rest of my PC but I think I can squeeze a couple more years out of my 3060 TI at this rate.
- I squeezed 7 years out of my 1070 before I replaced it.
  You can easily get another 2-4 years out of your GPU. A 3060ti isn't even old.
  
  My desktop still has a 1060. It's not great in new games but still works.
