Still running 2 x GTX1080ti cards in SLI.
Still working fine. Although, could really benefit from a new card for astro image processing, think I will wait and see how the 4xxx cards come out like, or pickup a 3 series later on.

Interesting question. Had I answered this survey on Monday I would have answered "Older than 5 years". I was busy and didn't get the chance to look at the survey at that time. Then, at about 5:00 AM on Tuesday morning my computer power supply died. I replaced it and got the computer working again, however, the graphics card would only work for about 20 minutes before causing the screen to go blank. It required rebooting the computer to get it to work properly again, for about 20 minutes. Off to the computer store I went again, looking for a new graphics card. I installed it on Thursday afternoon (a GeForce GTX1650), which is still less than 24 hours ago as I am writing this.
I just hope next week's survey doesn't ask about motherboard's, CPU's or memory. I don't need to be replacing them yet

LHR but I only use it for photo processing, not gaming. I have no idea if the LHR affects that or not but the card is screaming fast compared to my very old GT1030.

fyi: you can bypass LHR: [^]

When I bought my latest laptop (four years ago) it came with a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070. I didn't need it for anything special at the time but, since then I have done a fair amount of animation work with Blender, and rendering is about three times faster with the video card than with the six core i7 CPU. I still have to get ffmpeg using the card to complete the video workflow.

I only play Minecraft on my personal computer, so I don't need any fancy graphics card. My work is web development, so still, I need nothing special.

bought last autumn.
Need several different graphics cards (Game Development), also one of the more-on-the-high-end-segment.
And yes, ofc this is my main development pc, also my gaming pc.

Bought it for $500 last december. Listed for $1200 used on e-bay so I snapped it up.
I could probably sell it now and get a 3080 LHR and pocket the difference but it's a hassle.
This is more than enough GPU for me

I have no idea and really don't care. Maybe if I played games. If I'm not playing games, is there a compelling reason?

What more do you need? Battlefield 1942 is the most challenging thing I run on my dedicated gaming machine. For development machines I stick with whatever came with them.

I'm not a gamer so as long as it can run at least two monitors, it's enough for my needs. Even my newest 10 y/o self-assembled box uses the onboard video. Previous to that, I used to buy lower end VCs for home builds, usually < $100.

Waited a long time for prices to come down so I could afford to buy this card.
Didn't realize it was so big, nearly didn't fit in my case, had to move a fan to squeeze it in.

Like yourself, I waited for the price to come down on a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 Super to just over $360. I don't play games but do a great deal with Photoshop and Illustrator both are CPU and memory pigs. I also do a great deal of video editing, so the graphics cards 6gb of GDDR memory really helps speed thing up. Best $$ I ever spent

I upgraded from the GTX1660 to the RTX3080. I run Photoshop, TurboCAD, Lightroom and others. The 1660 was Ok but really stalled in TurboCAD. Runs like a Singer sewing machine now.

I have no idea what's in my laptop, but it's around 5 years old so I answered older than 5 years.
Then I remembered I have a PlayStation 5, which probably has a newer one and so that's my newest graphics card and it isn't older than 5 years 
I'm currently playing lots of remasters of 10-20 year old games and indie games, so I'm making sure to put it to good use (not)

... my oldest is probably 1 1/2 years old - my Surface has a newer (but feebler) embedded GPU: Intel UHD Graphics 615 which was released in 2018.
I don't game on that though, so the lack of graphics power is less important than the lack of power consumption.

... released in 2012, so ten years old.
Supports three monitors, works flawlessly in Windows, still runs GTA V when I want it to.

Same as mine (although I didn't buy mine until 2014).
The only downside: I know absolutely nothing about GPU programming, so I ordered Barlas, Gerassimos: Multicore and GPU Programming: An Integrated Approach[^], scheduled for delivery tomorrow. I have discovered that the GTX660ti is too old to run a few of the code samples in the book. Either, I will have to study those few examples as theory only, or I must buy a new graphics card.
I guess that I will do the examples that runs on the GTX660ti first, and then decide if it fascinates me enough to justify another expense. 67 British pounds for the book, plus shipping, is certainly in the upper range for books I buy just out of curiosity, not out of any sort of 'need'.
