Im genuinely of the opinion that GPU manufacturers need to take a gap year. Stop prioritising in game performance development and focus on efficiency and cost for just 12 months.

Actually Id be happy if consumer PC hardware as a whole went this way for just a little bit.

You can tune down the power draw yourself and get that efficiency you need.

Besides that, you should buy AMD Radeon. They are the ones with a reasonable production strategy to lowering die cost and also have the lower price on their cards.

I did buy AMD, doesnt mean I dont want the rx9700xt to be cheaper when it comes out.
