I recently looked at the prices of pre built desktop in my country and the PS5 offers better price to performance, if it is jailbroken that is. The prices are ridiculous. I wanted a desktop to play games, the price isn't worth it. Every month I see an increase in the price.

That price range was for the XX60 and on a good sale the XX70. The fact that $300 gets you an XX50 is a tragedy.

    The 3060 released at $329, the 3070 came out at $499...

    The 2060 released at $349, 2070 also at 499.

    The 16xx series stood out for being incredibly low priced, but it had no real high end cards.

    GTX10 midrange ended at 1060, at $299, 1070 was high-end, at 449.

    Meanwhile....

    4060 release price was $299, 4070 $599.

    5060 release price $299, 5070 $549.

    So no, the entry level you're saying people are mainly buying for gaming... it actually went down in price.

    Yes because release price=price people actually buy it at. Also show me a 5060 at $300. The release price used to be the price early adopters had to pay as a premium. Now it's a discounted price that you can never actually get.

    Why am I arguing with you. You're seriously claiming Graphic card prices didn't increase. That should have been enough to make me block you and ignore your nonsense.
