Had to install this app which then made me sign in (using my work PC) to update the firmware on my damn controller. Wish there was a way to do this in Linux. I'm so over Microsoft's crap.

Wait for real??? You make an NVIDIA account now? I haven't had an NVIDIA card since my 980Ti... Is this account insanity true for the proprietary Linux driver too?
No, you can download the proprietary drivers with a package manager
That card was so good for so much longer than it had any right to be.
Omg absolutely, what a workhorse. I ended up slapping on a custom vBIOS, aggressive overclock, and swapped the AIB's air cooler for a little closed loop 120mm water cooler. I ran it until it died in 2020, and if it was still functional today, I'd still be using it. RIP what a loss. The 6GB of VRAM were starting to get tight and DX12 was starting to age it, though, but it was still totally holding up for what I use a GPU for.
Now I am on a 6900XT with the navi21 XTXH chip in it. I bet I'll skip at least as many generations with this as I did with the 980Ti. It's so fast and efficient. In some games, the fans don't even spin, and it just passively cools with the heatsink.
I play on a CRT in either 1600x1200@85Hz or 1024x768@120Hz capping it at 170fps in 85Hz or 360fps in 120Hz, and it holds those solid and stable in the games that I play. I'm not interested in 4k gaming or anything silly like that (but I'm sure others would say that I'm the silly one lol). The biggest factor that was holding me to the 980Ti was the flawless onboard DAC and native analog output. In order to use the 6900XT, I dropped a bunch of money on a DAC with a VMM2322 for it
Can 100% confirm. Had a friend use that card for many years until it started crashing whenever it got over about 90% utilization, even when underclocking it. That happened about 5 months ago now. They currently have a 3060. But they used that 980Ti for everything and it played all the games they had without a hitch. It was one hell of a card and had an amazing run
