It was a different time

It was a different time..........

>performance is practically the same
we're still stuck in 1080p for playability (long as the game isn't a poorly coded piece of ass that isn't even worth pirating)
>4k still unplayable unless upscaling games from 2010
>price somehow doubled for the same bracket tier of gpus
it was a better time.

>mfw I had the HD7990 when it was released
Lasted me until last October.

I still use a GTX 680 because I got memed into it back in the day.

>4k unplayable

Vega and 1080ti can both stay over 60fps ultra in doom and battlefront at 4k

>$1000 gpu
hah.. hah.. hahahahaha. no.

you have to be a real shitbag to give a company which is capable of this shit your money
>scams customers and gets sued for it
>doubles their prices to say fuck you for sueing our lying asses
>AMD decides to allow the market to stagnate rather than fuck nvidia in the performance cards
>meanwhile nshidya continues raping us via astronomical price hikes

Spotted the poorfag.

Obviously butthurt you can't afford the best. It's not for everybody so calm your butthurt.

found the shillfag.

That looks like the dumbest and the coolest cooler on the Nvidia card.

>we're still stuck in 1080p for playability
Perhaps if developers stopped trying to render every shit particle of every in-game fart, this wouldn't be a problem.

>implying it's even the best
keep trying shillfag, your damage control is clearly working sooo well

Poorfags can't into rational thoughts and arguments. You CAN'T afford it, some just don't want to. You didn't buy AMD back when they needed the cash and now you cry about them not competing.

>DAMAGE CONTROL IN FULL FORCE
>starts creating fantasies about my past
>starts making outlandish claims about AMD needing money, yet not competing now that they have tonnes..
pajeet man, how do i get hired to shitpost on the internet? or do you do it free of charge?

It's, sadly, pretty much the same time - technology wise.

Exactly.

It's the same as what we've seen from Intel, they took the performance lead and since then we've gotten generation after generation of the same shit in a new wrapping with a 1-2% barely measurable performance gain.

Why would nvidia release higher performing cards cheaper now if they can sit on their R&D until competition shows up?

lol, this again. We who have a lot of spare cash and no debt are in this situation because we don't throw it away on overprices garbage willy nilly

>1-2% barely measurable performance gain.
A 50%+ jump in performance of their last flagship is a barely measurable performance gain?

I know you AMDrones like to shill Poolaris but that was AMD that degraded in performance, not NVIDIA.

Why doesn't Nvidia make duel GPU cards anymore?
I really liked that I could buy a single water block.

Now I have 2 blocks, and all the wires that go with it.

because SLI/xfire is dead and it was always bottlenecked by their shit drivers

Which newly released Intel CPU has a 50%+ performance gain over their last CPU?

Do you even read?

and you just said "its the same we've seen from Intel" even though its completly fucking different

>Why would nvidia release higher performing cards cheaper now if they can sit on their R&D until competition shows up?
bcus competition is already here
see how polaris refresh is just a higher clocked higher tdp of last years model?
amd is clearly holding back their gpus with power constraints in order to help their duopoly flourish and fuck the customers for smacking them on the wrist for selling lies.

please answer. i really wanna know:

Guy you replied to here:
The point is, 1440p is already the new 1080p--mid end cards (580, 1060) handle 1440 fine, low end (rx470/1050) are perfect for 1080p. Within 2-3 GPU generations 4k will be the standard

>690
>"""back in my days"""

>(580, 1060) handle 1440 fine
rofl fuckoff shitbag no they don't
they don't even fucking handle 1080p fine
hell gtx 1080 doesn't even run 1080p 60fps on games released LAST YEAR.
