Well. Objective the best card. Objectively expensive.

Definitely not for me. Hoping rx 9070 delivers on value.

Based on the Gamers Nexus video it seems to be somewhat of a better performer than what I expected.

Also not a card for me. Sticking with my 3080 for another generation.

20, 30, 40 series also wasn't for me. I stuck with my 1080ti...I really should look at upgrading to something..

I think you might be looking at a 100+% increase with any mid range card, given that you don't get bottlenecked by cpu.

Raster performance per dollar = AMD

Raytracing = Nvidia

But lets wait for rx 9070 in March.

My 1660 Super doesn't cut it anymore. I might look at AMD next

My cpu is probably fine, i9-9900k, but I am getting new just for the multicore fun.

Current build is just being repurposed as a home server of sorts. Havent really started looking but know I need too.
