Last-gen AMD GPUs and even some last-gen Nvidia GPUs beat Nvidia’s current gen in performance and cost way less. The pricing of 40 series is absurd for the performance it provides.

    What I’m saying is that cards like the 1050 Ti need to cost even less in order to reflect the performance they provide. The scam is the fact that they’re increasing their profit margin to extract more profit out of people who can’t afford better cards.

      Makes sense. Honestly those cards are so old and popular that I see no ethical reason that they shouldn’t just be open-sourced sometime soon for any manufacturer to make their own. It’s not like the people who made it are getting paid residuals or anything. Everyday I am more sure that every commercial hardware/software technology should have a “open-source deadline” upon release at the bare minimum.
