I wasnt going to get one anyway, but now I really won't buy one lol.

My current PC which at the time was a pretty much top of the line PC cost less than just that GPU. Ridiculous.

Yeah, you can build a 1440p native/4k upscale build for like $1000 if not less. I don’t understand what the demand for these cards is. What games benefit?

But that extra 3FPS bro.

My guess is that demand for high-end GPUs is more for AI stuff, which can always benefit from more horsepower.
