I tested 3 $200 AMD card options from different eras: the Radeon 480 8 GB, the 5500 XT 8 GB, and the 6500 XT 4 GB. Nope, no 580 here. And no, they're not all...
They won’t build older cards. They want the excuse of new tech to charge you more, even though the difference is minor. GPUs are starting to hit their limit much like phones have. There are rumours abound that we will not see a high end card in the next gen from any manufacturer. This is because they cannot justify the 4 figure prices to anyone except corporate. It will be interesting to see how they react once the AI market has bought what they need.
