Pretty much the same tbh. I don’t like supporting nvidia, but they do have some useful features that i do use a lot, DLAA and their new DLSS ray reconstruction thing possibly are things that i really like with nvidia cards. But even if they just scaled down the chips again for the 5000 series and did only as you say and no architectural changes, that might be decent enough to buy… but the other problem i have with modern cards is the power draw, 350 watts is crazy to me for a low end of power draw. so i guess onto your list i’d add slightly lower power draw, not hoping for much maybe like 50 watt decrease maybe or something. I loved the 10 series for the absolutely amazing power draw decrease, i still have a gtx 760 and it uses basically more power than a 1060 and is still weaker than a 1060, that was an impressive jump back then, i couldn’t believe such a thing. that i could not only upgrade my gpu and also lower power draw at the SAME TIME. But again, they really just need any power draw reduction right now, not expecting a huge one and such.
Oh really? Dang that is surprising! Thanks for the info. Havent really kept up with the 4xxx series because eww. But at least theres anything good about the series at all???

While I’m no Nvidia fanboy, the rtx 4060 has a tdp of just 110 watts, lower even than that 1060 (with a tdp of 120W, IIRC).
Your point certainly stands for the higher-end cards, though.
