I was juuuust thinking about getting a new GPU, so this was timely...
I thought the B580 was supposed to be around $250, but it seems they are retailing in the mid $300s or so. Maybe I'll grab an older A series for now for my transcode box and wait a bit longer on my desktop upgrade.
All gpus are overpriced basically. I really hope these prices come down within 5 or 10 years. Since this is no fun anymore.
Oh definitely, I just didnt expect the Intel's to increase so much or so quickly.
I was planning to pick one up to replace my GPU in my main workstation, and a second to be a transcoding workhorse with av1 support. Unfortunately waiting a bit longer likely won't help considering the tariff nonsense, so I'll probably end up buying last gen for less and waiting a few more years to go current.
