Curious to see real world benchmarks for the 5050 and 5050 mobile.
Seeing how the 5060 performed, I'm not.
I am aware of the 5060, it's a more morbid curiosity if you will.
Oh darn I haven’t followed Pc gaming in a while. Are these cards bad? I have an old 960 and have been thinking of upgrading my pc for years.
Probably need to just start over the CPU is incredibly out of date as well.
The x50 and x60 series are trash if you look real world prices (it's worse where I live, but to my understanding it's a global issue).
If you have a mid-2010s era CPU (and your finances are flexible), it's probably a good idea to get a new CPU as well.
It's not that they are objectively bad, it's that they should be better, the real world pricing shouldn't be as fucked, the focus shouldn't be on AI, Nvidia shouldn't be keeping objective reviews of their cards under NDA until after a week of sales, etc.
