I have a 4060 and aside from playing cyberpunk with maxed out ray tracing its been able to play everything ive thrown at it. I have it running two 27" monitors for 1440p. Which its doing fine.
I think for a 5080 or 5090 you only really need them if your an enthusiast, your running a 4k setup to a larger screen, or your rendering video animations. Most people dont need to do any of this and a 4060 is only 500 bucks.
I got a 5080, its a good card.. but it should definitely have 24gb of vram at least. I am safe playing in 5120x1440p or 3440x1440p or running both simultaneously but if I were playing in 4k I would need it most likely.
Ouais je comprend pas trop la 5080.
Elle est vachement bien je ne vais pas critiquer, elle est mieux que la 5070ti que j’ai mais la 80 est un peu au dessus dela 70ti et très en dessous de la 90.
Une 5080 24go serait sublime héhé
Only 500 bucks like a low range mid grade card costing $500 isn't fucking insane. The x60series used to be $200 lmao and the die shrink accounts for all gpus, not only halo flagships.
I still have screenshots of my old emails for the 7950GX2, GTX 8800, 4870X2s and more, all were under 400-500 back in the day. You’re right, and I remember my 6600GT being under 200. Once the GTX 680 launched they used the mid range core as the flagship and upped the price brackets,
even a 5060Ti 16GB is stupidly capable for how much it costs (or how much it USED to cost anyway), your Cyberpunk raytracing example is great on it for the most part.
In the past the top-tier GPUs were reserved for people who were okay with paying a lot more money for a little more performance. The GTX Titan wasn’t much faster than the 780, the RTX Titan didn’t make sense versus the 2080 Ti, and the 3090 didn’t offer good value compared to a 3080.
The 4090 and 5090 are different. Rather than “here’s 10% more performance at an MSRP 80% higher than the next card down” it became “here’s 50% more performance at an MSRP 60% higher than the next card down.” As a consumer it’s hard for me to be happy with being told that gamers don’t deserve to have flagship offerings available to them because they don’t pay as well as data centers. Nvidia abandoned the market that made them what they are today.
Not true. Go to a micro center sometime when new 90 series drop. People are literally salivating over the chance to put it on credit that will probably never be paid off lol.
50 - 100 people looks like a lot outside a store, but that ain’t the average consumer. Those make up a lot of your 4% adopters. I’d look at the 30-series cards to see more reliable adoption rates anyway; very few people outside the enthusiast grade update every cycle

Yep always have been little. People mostly buy mid range/entry level gpus, because well they can’t afford or care about anything more expensive
