2023 was the year that GPUs stood still::A new GPU generation did very little to change the speed you get for your money.

I just upgraded from a 970GTX to a 2060S I bought on AliExpress. Bargain.

I recommend running GPU-Z to verify the 2060S is actually a 2060S, it's well known that there's fakes sold on that site as well as many others.

Aren't you worried about it bursting into flames?

I upgraded from a 3080 to a 4090.

My son needed an upgrade and it was easier to justify giving him the 3080 and chalking up the difference as his Christmas gift last year than to buy a GPU for him outright.
