The only thing giving me pause about ATI cards is their ray tracing is allegedly visibly worse. They say next gen will be much better, but we shall see. I love my current non ray tracing card, an rx590, but she's getting a bit long in the tooth for some games.

ATI

"Now that's a name I've not heard in a long time"

I have to admit I still tend to call them that, too. Oldttimers I guess.

The first GPU I remember being excited to pop into my computer and run was a Matrox G400 Max. Damn I'm old.

I would have been so jealous. Being able to click "3d acceleration" felt so good when I finally upgraded. But I was 12, so my dad was in charge of pc parts. Luckily he was kind of techy, so we got there. Being able to run Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II with max settings is a day I'll never forget for some reason, lol.
