You know it's all ****** when people are hoping for better performance from a brand new £700 card than a 1080Ti released 2 years ago that has been around the £600 mark. Utter madness.
Yep more money for same performance 2 years later. Shocking!
Desperately hoped AMD came back with something but like phone manufacturers jumping on the back of Apple everyone just raising their prices with no justification. AMD needed this out the door at £500 or less. Unfortunately charging this much for 2 year old performance has just gone down the RTX2080 route. Disappointing!
Was going to do a full system overhaul on black friday last year but just couldnt get excited enough for what was on offer for the price. OCUK didnt help either with some questionable pre made computers with discounts but also sneakily switching components around meaning the savings werent true. Nvidias gpu prices & intels cpu prices just made it pointless. AMD shining with Ryzen but i wouldnt benefit as would only be a gamer so still make sense for me to go Intel at moment.
Just got another SSD drive to tide me over and will hang fire for next Black Friday and hope some sort of sensibility returns *fingers crossed - please, please, please*
