If you're prepared to google a settings guide for your game, you might find you'll be happy with a 2060 or 2070 for 1440p144hz, especially...

jasswolf commented on LG 55" C9PTA OLED TV (2019 Model) $2965.5 + Delivery @ The Good Guys
The pricing should be much more competitive for the 65" model in this year's line-up, which is something to keep in mind for those...

You're splitting hairs over $25 or so. Some quick google-fu shows last year's model had an MSRP of $4199, launched at $3200-$3400, while...

That would be $2200ish, though you may have found some for $2000 on clearance. Remember that this is the C9, not the B9. There's a lot of...

No, when they tip in resources and time to developers that AMD don't. Prior NVIDIA hardware didn't deal well with async compute, so of...

It's not 10-15% better, it's **at least** 10% better, rising to as much as 40-50% in titles that support the new architecture better, as...

More like 6 weeks, with an announcement or preview in 3 weeks. Likely a staggered launch though, and you probably don't want to buy at...

DSC 1.2a is built to go right down to 4k50, and manufacturers are experimenting with bumping lane speeds, meaning that even as little as...

I think they might try for the 12-core then, or at least announcing pre-orders. Makes sense given there'd be plenty of run-off of those...

Might be worth looking into the performance of AX3000 devices instead of this, as they have a lower starting price.
