      Similar situation here, my late 2010s Nvidia card is still good so no need to get an AMD one to replace it yet. Would be interested in FPS benchmarks between my card and current cards but there isn’t much I can find. Mostly just ambiguous numerical scores.

      I heard steam was trying to approximate performance from specs and would love to see something like that if it can work.

      If I could get like +200% performance for a cheap more power efficient card I probably would but I don’t think they are that much better yet.

        Tbh the issue is price, newer cards are both quite a bit more powerful and power efficient. Went from 1080 to 3070 ti and now 5070 ti and each upgrade was a significant step up. Going straight from 1080 to my current card would be an insane jump. BTW this is based on performance I’ve seen in games, not benchmarks.

          I am on RTX2070 and would be looking at xx60 or cheaper. Not sure if performance gains would be that significant yet.
