is throwing $1k at gpu worth it?
Sure is if the alternative is spending over $2000 for a GPU with slightly more performance.
But that isn't the alternative.
That's like saying buying a Ferrari is the only alternative to buying a Lamborghini.
The alternatives are any GPU less expensive than $1000. And that's the majority of GPUs.
I would not agree with that analogy but if you want to use cars, I would say it's like a Nissan GT-R is an alternative to a Ferrari. Most of the performance, half the price. And half the price means it's available to a much wider market.
Surely you can see $999 is a different segment to $2200.
