Saying it’s “not a competitor to a 5080” is disingenuous. It’s also not gonna be a competitor to the 5070 and will barely compete with the 5060, and that’s assuming NVIDIA somehow only improves upon the 4060 by 15%, which would be their worst generational leap in like 10 years. The B580 is an almost 2025 card with 2023 performance. Its only purpose is to force NVIDIA and AMD to cut down their prices.

depending on what amd and Nvidia’s prices are it could still be a good product, just not a competitor to a 5080.

and like Magic Nvidia makes the b580 competitive with the 5060 by crippling their own card with 8GB of vram.
Yep. This was, indeed, the worst generational leap in the last 10 years. The performance isn’t as bad as the price, though.
