I've been looking at upgrading my PC from a secondhand 2060 I got in early 2021 for cheap. Right now, Newegg has a sale event this week where all sorts of things can be purchased at 10% off, including new GPUs. I already kinda regret not looking into this when they were being bundled with Wukong.
Right now, they're still being bundled with Star Wars: Outlaws. Been over a month now. I have no idea when they'll next bundle their cards with a game I actually want. And Outlaws is a game I really don't want.
What would you guys think in this situation?
Some people don't like hearing the truth, but this is the correct take. It's a ridiculous luxury item that will be literal garbage in a few years.
The only reason I have a decent GPU is because I need it for work -- which is developing a 3d rendering engine.
The last top-end GPU I bought was a Voodoo 5 5500. What an expensive mistake that was.
