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.

My R9 390 is still going strong, and hopefully it'll stay they way until the price fixing stops.

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.

Still can't afford afford one.

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.
