Okay, $250 then. Everything I still said is still true.
Modern features is more than just raytracing and frame generation. It supports new graphics APIs, more video codecs, etc. Memory bandwidth has also significantly improved since Pascal.
I hadn’t even mentioned efficiency, but it uses ~100w less than a 1080ti, which means less heat as well.
It seems like you prefer buying used and don’t have much of a need for the new stuff, which is fine. Keep using your hardware as long as it meets your needs. But that doesn’t mean this card is a bad value. It’s just not for you.
About a different card no one is talking about and you subbed in?
Or about the actual card everyone was discussing and that the article is about?
Like, this is bigger than the topic at hand, you understand how you just created a different argument and are insisting people talk about that instead?
Right...?
Everything I said is true about both Intel cards. Clearly you are just arguing in bad faith and are not open to considering other options. Goodbye.
