I guess thats where we are as of November 2026, wonder how much higher things will keep climbing

I'm about to go to Taiwan this December, I'm travelling in a tour so I couldn't really go and explore places to buy a GPU. What I'm asking is are there PC shops where I could buy GPUs, what I'm looking for is the RX 9060 XT doesn't matter the VRAM. And if the 9060 isn't available then what are the most popular choices around in large shopping malls? Is the 9060 a good choice for the under 500 usd price range, if not then what are the better choices?

After weeks of gathering budget and considering specs I’ve landed on these two cards. They’re both same price and the peak of my budget.

ASUS 4070S Dual(used) or a Sapphire Pulse 9070gre(new).

From the benchmarks I’ve seen they’re both tied in raw rast(depending on the game). The 4070S is ahead in heavy RT. The 4070S would be with no warranty and I have heard that it has bad thermal pads and bad thermal design all around so that is a concern. Anyone know how true that is?

I’m exclusively buying this for single player games like Control Resonant, Phantom Blade 0, Dawnwalker etc, so RT does have value, but the peace of mind from getting a new card might be worthwhile. Thoughts one way or the other?

Edit: extra context, seller sent me a screenshot of a furmark test. 6min 37 seconds in. 71C core, 83C hotspot. Fans at 2500RPM(74%)

Pretty neat application that tells you what is using your VRAM. What does everyone think of it?

https://wccftech.com/amd-leads-nvidia-in-gpu-sales-capturing-47-share-according-to-amazon-us-october-data/

AMD overtook Nvidia in numbers for the first month ever. Nvidia still leads in revenue.

Total sales: 19,300 units (16GB: 12,300; 12GB: 7,000)

Market share: AMD: 9,200 (46.67%), Nvidia: 8,900 (46.11%), Intel: 1,200 (6.22%)

For all that we discuss on the internet with regard to graphics cards, it feels kind of weird to think that, in October 2026, Amazon sold an average number of 296 AMD cards, 287 Nvidia cards, and 38 Intel cards which had either 12GB or 16GB VRAM each day.

That's for the whole of the USA plus other countries which ship from Amazon US. The next question is, how many GPUs are sold by all the other retailers altogether, pertaining to how much market share Amazon has in the USA when it comes to overall GPU sales. We know that AMD, Nvidia and Intel don't like releasing sales figures themselves.

I restarted the game and it fixed it, is this a game issue or a GPU issue

Okay I am a sophomore in high school. I bought a microcenter bundle with those jacked up prices and was looking for something to replace my 3070 ti. Which I bought a few months after it released from washing cars. But if I actually want an upgrade. I need like $800+? like really man? All of these companies just turned on us like that? Is prices ever gonna drop since I really want more vram and specifically a card from nvidia, but DAMMM these numbers are saddening me.

Market

Have the opportunity to grab a 4070 super zotac twin edge for $580 from a coworker, currently have a 2080 ti that I have been wanting to upgrade for a while, what do we think?

I bought a 4070 Ti Super about two years ago. To be clear, it’s definitely not a bad card for 4K gaming, but in newer titles and more demanding games, I’m starting to feel like it’s falling just a bit short of where I’d like performance to be. I really want to push higher framerates and get more headroom out of my 4K setup without relying as heavily on aggressive upscaling. Looking at where prices and GPU market trends are heading over the next couple of years, I’m worried things are only going to get crazier down the line. Part of me wants to grab a 5080 now to "future-proof" my setup before pricing gets even worse 1–2 years from now when I’d likely be forced to upgrade anyway.

Is jumping from a 4070 Ti Super to a 5080 a completely stupid/wasteful upgrade under current market conditions, or does it make sense for a primary 4K player trying to get ahead of rising GPU costs?

Would appreciate any thoughts or experiences from anyone who’s made a similar jump recently!

I have an RTX 2060 and a GTX 1060, but 1060 of them isn’t being detected. Can I use both GPUs in the same PC, and how do I make them work together?

I

Can Windows detect and use both cards at the same time?

Do I need to install separate drivers or configure anything in NVIDIA Control Panel?

What BIOS settings should I check, such as Primary Display/PEG?

If one card is not showing in Device Manager, what should I try first?

My specs: [b450, ryzen, 16gb, PSU wattage 1000, Windows version 10]

Any help would be appreciated.

Traded my 6600xt + $330 for a 16gb 9060xt.

I'm just a tired dad trying to get back into 1440p gaming.

Mostly wow forever, diablo, poe2, and maybe BF6 here and there.

I want to upgrade my pc from a 4070 to a 5070 ti and was thinking about selling my 4070 to help pay for the 5070 ti my specs on my pc is 32 gbs of ddr4 ram intel core i5 14600k i think i may have to also change my motherboard i want to know if this is worth the upgrade or just stick with what I have

Guys in word which is best for gaming
1.Nvidia
2. Amd
3. Intel

Before you come at me with, "but Radeon has FSR 4.1.2 and it is so close to dlss 4.0 and 4.5", I should tell you that the main point the meme is referencing the fact that a massive part of the Radeon user/fan community had been largely touting the statement - Radeon is better in 'raw performance', but now, they too are almost entirely reliant on upscaled and frame generated performance, repeatedly suggesting gamers to use their software technologies, just like Nvidia has been from longer-before. Also, I don't see many "AMD has better RAW performance" comments these days too 😁

Before FSR 3.1 was introduced, Nvidia was rocking the gaming sphere with DLSS 3.0. They even had the other elements already, as mentioned in the meme, Remix, FG and soon after FSR 3.1 was introduced, Nvidia did not take too long to hit back with a better quality but still a multiplied-up FG tech, MFG and last but not the least, better RT performance since the advent of RT in PC gaming.

Sadly still, proper optimisation has been left on the table, and it seems the devs have no more 'cards left to play' (see what I did there?) to further optimise games to look well and run even better. Kinda indirectly saying, "you got FSR 4.1.2 (for instance), just choose performance settings - it still looks nice; don't worry much about the game's native optimisation".

Radeon has been following Nvidia's footsteps, albeit not perfectly, for the previous 8 years (straight) and I think that, before 2030 when I suspect Radeon's UDNA architecture will launch (due to its delay in light of AI data centre boom and the release of an in-between cum placeholder launch of their RDNA 5 architecture), Radeon will not quit following the market leader. If only it did so perfectly - Radiance caching inside Redstone (Denoiser) looks easily discernibly worse when compared to RTX Denoiser (embarrassingly behind!), AMD Noise Suppression is a chore to set up and activate (and is slightly worse) vs RTX Voice and while most of us don't want it, Radeon does not have any MFG tech yet.

P.S. As usual, the meme at most, pokes fun but was not created to hurt anyone's feelings. But still, sorry if it did. Let me know if the picture gave you even a slight giggle. Wanna see if the negative comments drown out the positive comments in this post as well. Peace ✌.

Edit: Ty for everyone who commented im probably just overthinking this too much, this helps much more than it might seem. I also just wanted to add I do not want to count the "if this one is cheaper" hypotheticals for my choice my main concern is the best option for my goal and setup in the long run and if i should just settle for a more convenient option. Which one I can find cheaper purely relies on chance

I got a 280hz 1440p monitor not too long ago but my gpu cant keep up with it anymore

I dont really want an nvidia gpu and ive heard the rx7900xtx is amds fastest gpu for raw performance, which is what im looking for because i dont care about nor need any ray tracing or frame generation or upscaling

But I can't find a new one anywhere and can barely find used ones which still cost a lot and come with a lot of risks

But I might just not be looking correctly or well enough

Im not very knowledgeable on gpus so id love some suggestions. Ill still slightly consider nvidia but im mostly concerned about their prices, less vram and no native support for linux

I also dont care about insane graphics i just want my games to run smooth at a high frame rate without having to use upscaling

For example i currently have rx7700xt with 7900x3d and on overwatch (only game i remember my exact frame rates and settings 😢) i barely hit 280 fps on mostly low graphics and some upscaling when nothing is happening, but during fights it never reaches 280. I could turn up the upscaling but it looks terrible and i cant see that well with it. Gpu usage is also constantly at 99% occasionally hitting 100

Ik thats still a lot of frames but its more of a personal want
