With the 8gb gimp, this should be about as good as a 3070...

No way it's gonna be 300 bucks, given the Fuhrer's new tariffs.

I didn't check the details but since those are prebuilts, could $299 be just the price difference over the basic GPU, such as the 3050?

PC gaming is the bottom tier in actual gaming. It's mostly done on potatoes where cheating and stealing games is the norm. Even Steam is off and farts out higher end rigs than actually are the norm. People need to get that.

Ah yes, ofcourse, because you are desperate to push your silly agenda of cloud taking over the world, right? Did you implant your chip yet to hook up to a terminal?

Screw any other logic, where it really is the PC still pulling graphics & gaming forward, and it still being a growth market YoY. That doesn't exist these days, much like other realities it seems. Market reports don't really fit well in an X message, nor any other meaningful content for that matter. Goes to show the power of stupidity online.

Here, a dose of reality for ya

If you want to come collect your jaw as it dropped to the floor, do let me know okay. Gamers aren't going to let Nvidia kill their fun, no worries.



Those indies really can't survive in the cutthroat world created by Xbox Live services and Sony, oh no. Look at this! Almost dead in the water clearly!




Here's the kicker: continued growth of Steam. Take a moment to get to grips with that fact. Steam's been there for 22 years now and it has still not saturated the market. In other words, there is still growth potential for a service that simply distributes games to your local computer. Said service also offers about 100x more games than any on-demand cloud provider (EVERY YEAR). Good luck catching up with this, using a few posterboy triple A titles that release with a massive MTX deal and DLC roadmap on launch. Especially if you consider that an MTX store and temporary cloud access bite each other massively, too.

This whole cloud push is destined to fail, its just a wild attempt at market control. MS is invested. They have barely turned a profit on Xbox though.

$500 USD for a 16Gb 5060Ti?

Yeah, good luck with that...

We're cooked if it's true. Don't think NVIDIA is gonna let their 8GB Ti model be $350 if the regular 5060 is $300, and that means the 16 isn't gonna be great if NVIDIA wants to mark up that variant by $100 again...

5060 ti 16 = $499
5060 ti 8 = $399
5060 = $299

Looks about right to me.

According to this: www.techpowerup.com/review/nvidia-geforce-gtx-1060/
my ~$299 card could hit 60fps@FHD in all but 4 of the tested games (in two of them it only hit 57-58, one other was Crysis3). All bells and whistles on. I bet this new ~$299 card will not come close.
