Ive been using my XFX HD 4670 1GB DDR3 on my old PC for almost 4 years. Since i have some spare cash left from Christmas, thought of replacing with a new one.
I payed Rs 4000 something something for it, so i plan to replace it with something in the same price bracket.
After checking Toms Hardware Graphics Card Hierarchy Chart - 2014 GPU Comparisons i found that its Current Generation equivalents is R7 240 (not so new anymore).
So i checked online for its price. AND MA MA MIAAAA the price- Its Rs5200-6000 !!!!
Ok let it sink in....
....hufff...
...puff.....
A 4 YEAR OLD GRAPHIC CARD PERFORMS THE SAME AS A MODERN GRAPHIC CARD THAT COST 20% MORE !!!
So let me ask you all, IS there ANY NEW Advancement in graphic technology ?? Are Those oh so fancy OpenGL 4.3 & OpenCL 1.2 bullcr@p really all these Billion Doller GPU Companies could come up with? The graphics and technology within games are increasing in leaps and bounds and yet YOU GET THE SAME PERFORMANCE IN GPU AS YOU GOT 4 YEARS AGO ??? What kind of advancement is this!!!
