Hmm, 10 12 ... 16.. interesting how things are going far as the ram sizes. Thought I read there was some technical reason behind it... 8 10 12 16 24.. but if so why does it go (8 / 10 difference of 2 & 10 / 12 yet 12 / 16 difference of 4? With a difference of 8 between 16 and 24?)

420-545 € for what's essentially a 4.5 years old 1080 performance with useless RTX slapped on. They are out of their minds. Unless something drastically changes, looks like 2021 will be skipped as well when it comes to GPU upgrades. p.s. Actual retail price of a 3060: https://www.alternate.nl/html/product/1723538 € 689,00 ... pure insanity ! It's time for another hobby, gaming is dead.

Nothing you said is wrong. And it sucks. You know it is messed up when it takes almost 5 years for the mid range to reach not even the high end gpu from nearly 3 gens ago. And its even more hilarious when it barely beats a sub $400 5700XT in certain titles. Honestly, GTX 760, GTX 960, GTX 1060 3GB/6GB, and 3060 have all sucked ass. 2060 was at least a decent jump over the 1060.

@Agonist what's funny is the xx60 took 4 years to get close to 1080/ 1080ti (depending on the game) and it costs about the same or more ! As things are now ! Geeee what a deal!
