I've been getting this feeling for quite a while now that the budget end of the PC gaming market is kinda cooked (at least on the GPU side). I might make a more in-depth vid on the topic tho. The RTX 5060 is coming soon and I have never seen a graphics card that should be shown, that is so intentionally being hidden out of shame. After all this time you would think that we would be seeing things improve, but that has barely been the case.
