Im genuinely of the opinion that GPU manufacturers need to take a gap year. Stop prioritising in game performance development and focus on efficiency and cost for just 12 months.
Actually Id be happy if consumer PC hardware as a whole went this way for just a little bit.
You can tune down the power draw yourself and get that efficiency you need.
Besides that, you should buy AMD Radeon. They are the ones with a reasonable production strategy to lowering die cost and also have the lower price on their cards.
I did buy AMD, doesnt mean I dont want the rx9700xt to be cheaper when it comes out.
1080ti reporting for more 1080ti use.
2080TI, running Starfield at max settings with 4k texture mods, reporting in.
I want a top of the line GPU, I just can't find a good enough reason to shell out the money. It keeps plugging away, runs smooth as butter with a slight overclock, and I have no complaints. I heard lots of complaints about the 4*** series cards though.
I've saved up for a top of the line GPU twice now, and I'd rather spend it spoiling my wife and doing the nice things we can't usually afford.
My R9 390 is still going strong, and hopefully it'll stay they way until the price fixing stops.
One day we'll see ray tracing...
i have a rt capable gpu and its over hyped
Its overhyped so far.
i hear this since launch, and i got a capable card partly because of this
still waiting
Hey in all honesty good on you for being an early adopter, someone has to. The first cars were not much of an upgrade over the horse and buggy either.
I wouldnt touch the 40 series, it feels like a stopgap. Theres a lot going on with AI cores and frame generation and new methods that arent just "raw power" processing. I think all this frame gen and ray tracing and so on is going to come together in the next series.
my point is that they have been saying that for years now, all the rt gpus are feeling like stopgaps rn, and you aint losing much by staying on say a 1080ti
i think worthwhile rt is still a while off. I do agree that its potentially great whenever they can figure out better tech to run it like you mention.
also they need to calm the fuck down with pricing already
Still can't afford afford one.
It hurts so bad, you said it twice.
But Doctor Evil, such a number doesn't even exist!
I'll believe it when I see it. Still won't buy one... but I'll believe it.
Yawn… Waiting for Intel Battlemage to get 4080 performance for a realistic price.
