RTX 5070Ti - I don't trust what I am being told one bit! (JayzTwoCents) [Video]

I totally agree the price for graphic cards today is crazy.  A bit like Jayz said it might kill off a percentage of PC Gamers who will say Its cheaper to game on a console than buy the latest graphics card.

Who here remembers buying a Cirrus Logic graphics card in the 90's for £30.  I do lol.  I still fondly recall my 3DFX card.

I also recall upgrading my first graphics card (pre CL) by buying two DRAM chips from a local electronics shop (remember those???) in Manchester and popping them into the empty sockets on the PCB. I think the upgrade was to 1MB. And now we complain about only 8GB on nVidia cards 😆

That was easier than upgrading the PC itself to a faster clock, done by removing and soldering in a new oscillator.
