This 2021 review of the NVIDIA GTX 980 Ti uses the EVGA GTX 980 Ti Hybrid, setting forth to determine how the card compares to modern GPUs, like the RTX 3080, RTX 3070, RTX 3060 Ti, RX 6800 XT and 6800, and also to those in between. Because the GPU market is such a mess right now, depending entirely on where you live, you might have a better chance at getting an RTX 3060 Ti than a used GTX 1080 Ti; at the same time, if your local marketplaces have more used cards (discounting eBay, which seems to be way too expensive right now), it might be sensible to grab something used. Even still, the GTX 980 Ti does well overall for 1080p gaming in 2021, depending on the graphics quality settings, so it can hang on for a little while yet.
