Anyway, @Hilbert Hagedoorn, I believe reviewers and particularly Guru3d as I care about the best, you should place a time limit in products aging.

I do not find any reason for R9 series, including 3XX and Fury, but also GTX 9 series or earlier to be included anymore. 3-4years time is OK I think.
It is not about time limit. If you have decade of intel's CPUs with minimal improvements each generation, it is reasonable to show that there is very small reason to upgrade.
Same goes for GPUs. Time is bad measurement tool for something considered "old" in technology.

Once GPU is made obsolete by entry level GPU of current Generation, it may be removed from being tested with next generation.
For example, GTX 1050 as entry level performance made quite a few older enthusiast level GPUs obsolete. Those are not needed in comparison with RTX 20X0 series.

And that what falls under lowest of current generation is not needed in graphs once next generation pops in.
= = = =
But real question is: What is current entry-level? $350 RTX 2060 is not (due to its price tag). Is it GTX 1160? Or is there going to be GTX 1150?

With example above, there are 8 cards in Witcher 3 benchmark under GTX 1050 which could be considered obsolete in RTX 20X0 generation.

But if done by time, then manufacturer with greatest number of rebrands gets greatest coverage.
= = = =
That's why I consider reasonable to see last generation entry level GPU (baseline) and anything above it for comparison to current generation.
(Have you seen GTX Titan there? I bet you see value in knowing its performance against R9-390X or GTX 1060/RTX 2060.)

What thermal paste did you use to replace the stock paste?
Any difference in temps?

Noctua NT-H2, and no, not a single degree.
