What was the expectation for the result to be "underwhelming"?Well that was underwhelming.

Well RT sucks and it's circa 5 year old mid gpu performance for £300+ = underwhelming.
What could we get for c.£235 five years ago? (as inflation between then and now is c.27%)Well RT sucks and it's circa 5 year old mid gpu performance for £300+ = underwhelming.
In 2025 it's practically the only viable option for a cheap gaming PC though lol
It may be inconvenient, but inflation can't really be ignored. Nor can the other uses for dGPUs (or the silicon that would have otherwise been allocated to dGPU production) that have, at times, forced the price up, e.g. crypto, AI, etc..Blah blah inflation, lots of tech has not Increased in price, in fact it's lower than before inflation hit.

We have the Nitro, don't worry.
We just used some of our Pulse and Pure stock for this shape, but we have Powercolor, ASUS, Gigabyte also all in stock ready for tomorrow.

I've been playing Age of Empires - This photo screams that you've hidden your shiny and precious haribos behind that wall.
I would definitely hold out for a 9070Does seem like a decent deal! Tbh I'm still more looking for something in the 4-500 price range like a next gen 7800xt to make upgrading to 1440p feel worthwhile. Will probably hold out for 9070 to get closer to 500 but yeah 9060xt definitely seems like a great entry level card for ppl building a pc in 2025!
