I’m sorry, is a $1000 now cheap for gpu? I remember when an 80 series cost $500 and it felt expensive.
Genuinely what are you talking about?
RX 7800 xt is dropping beginning of next month at $500 and it's a beast of a GPU.

Yeah but the same thing can be said about phones, it's the new norm and for something that'll easily last you 4-6 years, it's a worthwhile investment I feel
Yeah they ain’t cheap. AMD just follows NVidia’s pricing and just undercuts them by a few hundred. AMD has zero reason to price their GPUs this high. While I sorta get why NVidia does it. There is massive demand for their chips outside the gaming sphere. And these businesses are willing to pay top dollar. I bet most of their production capacity is allocated to produce data center GPUs.
RIP cheems
I'll never go for Nvidia ever again.
I've been a Linux only user for over twenty years now and Nvidia is the fucking devil. Their drivers range in quality anywhere from "ugh" to "wtf!" and my current Nvidia card (it's a loan) gives me continuous screen artifacts and kwin (screen manager) crashes. AMD drivers just work.
They're open sourcing them so I can finally fix the audio bug my Lenovo Ideapad 14API gets on any drivers above 21.8.1. Maybe. Idk shit about software. But i know this is good
The fact is DLSS is really good and weird naming convention aside DLSS 3.5 (which works on all RTX cards, unlike DLSS 3) looks fantastic.
I bought my last two cards solely for DLSS support and unless AMD steps up my next card will likely be Nvidia as well.
From the tiny amount we've seen of it (and what the digital foundry guys were about to discuss), it looks like DLSS3.5 with ray reconstruction may actually be a game changer, pretty ray traced lighting with inbuilt anti aliasing without a performance hit. Be keen to see how it actually looks with cyberpunk when it comes out.
