Excellent performance for a 200$ card. And it competes with 9800GTX not GTX260. But great performance nonetheless.It performs quite close to my card there is just a 5% difference overall , so no need for me to worry.

Whatever its targetted at, it performed better than the 9800GTX.
Anyways, this is one of the main reasons im not gonna be getting any 3D card. The price falls way too quickly.
The 9800GTX was launched some time ago for 349.
It fell to 299.
Then 269.

Now next week, its gonna come down to 199.
That is fucked up.

Then we'll be able to buy 2X9600GT
Put them in SLi ready board and BAM Games run smoothly at 1600X1200 *sigh*

How long will it take to come in Pakistan ? Can it be made somehow to come faster, by requesting galaxy..etc ? I hope it does come in 18k range or less

well galaxy usually gets gpus within a week or 10 days after the official release.....so hopefully it will be here by 15th july.....my guess is that it will be around 19k-20k when it will arrive and will drop to 17-18k in a month or so...

isn't 18k a lot since it's available on newegg for $200 it should be priced over here at around 15000 rupees. not more than that..

Well, what abt other than Galaxy, like AGN (what I know), are they that quick too. Their prices are more reasonable than galaxy to what I think

This concerns me too, indeed very much. Pakistani market is sucking these days, esp galaxy. E8200/E8400 are 12.5k/13.9k at POP while galaxy is asking 13.3k/16k. I dont know why? Mayb since people just quietly buy at high prices with blind eyes, giving free hand to these dealers.

    BTW, i started Ghost of Tsushima, and it got me hooked within the first couple of minutes. I already know It's gonna be a memorable experience. This is how you make a proper Samurai game. Not that SJW game Ubisoft is making.

    That's still higher than it's total play length. A 5 hour campaign for a $50 game is downright scammy.

    Consoles were my main platform ever since Atari 2500. But now I think it's not worth it as PC especially with DLSS deliver far smoother performance. AW2 on console didn't even had ray tracing and ran below 30fps. Similar issues plagues DD2 on consoled.
    The cross gen era really made people think 60fps would be a new standard lol

    Welp, done with Hellblade 2. Thoroughly disappointed. Such a nothing burger after the unique experience of the first game.

    I have a PS5 but I am not satisfied with the experience. I am currently saving for a 4080 64 GB rig soon. Bit will wait for Pro if performance improves. This gen has been so bad I don't plan on buying consoles anymore for AAA gaming.

    Both PS and Xbox have been a flop this gen as they can barely maintain 30 fps in a lot of AAA games th.

    As per WCCF Tech review, Xbox Series X doesn't even maintain a consistent FPS and sometimes drops into the mid-20fps range. That's unacceptable, tbh.

    Gradually transitioning from console gaming to PC as the games are not worth it. 6 hours of Hellblade 2 is just not worth the $50 price tag.
    Score 1 for game pass. I wouldn't pay full price for this at retail either.

    Just downloaded my first legit digital PC game on GoG at a discount of $8: Two Point Hospital. The same team behind Theme Hospital Two Point Studios now part of Sega. And I am having more fun than most recent AAA games except of course BG3.

    Still, I don't like either Sony or Microsoft as they are focusing more on corporate greed than delighting customers. PC gaming is best of gaming and worth every penny.

    PC Gamer score of 58/100 for Hellblade 2??? Is it really worse than Gollum that was 64/100? Microsoft games can't even come close to high scores of Sony exclusives apparently.

    About the Microsoft (and Sony) debate, I feel both have become too greedy and losing their minds over corporate greed. Personally, I will never buy any console next gen and switch to PC gaming where democracy reins.
