The era of great value GPUs is over, but budget PC gaming is thriving
Budget PC gaming is alive and well. It just looks different than it used to.

We're all waiting for the next GTX 1660 Super or RX 580. Since the release of Nvidia's RTX GPUs, there's been a hole in the market for a great value GPU; a workhorse that can deliver 60 frames per second (fps) at 1080p for around $200. We haven't seen that over the past several generations, and releases like Nvidia's RTX 3050 and AMD's RX 6500 XT didn't do much to change that story.
