I would like to welcome the many many many new PC players who will be abandoning consoles

The rough equivalent of the PS5 GPU (~40 CUs of RDNA2) is the RX6700 XT at ~300 dollars. Pricing has not been great but let's not exaggerate lol

Wow my 5700 XT was $600 lol. God prices were garbage back in the day.

2019/2020 was a poor year from a price/longevity perspective, yeah. All of us who got a GPU around those days didn't necessarily get the best deal. I'm satisfied with what I got out of my 3060Ti but I feel that many wouldn't be.

I don't mention 2021 because, well, you know, it's not like you could even find one so

Yup I still have that 5700XT and it’s perfectly capable for nearly every game I enjoy today. I haven’t seen a reason to upgrade just yet.
