Bought a GPU in 2014 for $300.

Finally upgraded in 2024 for $600.

I get maybe 2x the FPS, in the same games at the same settings.

What gives? I thought GPU compute had massively fallen in price.



Did you upgrade your entire PC or just the GPU? A CPU from today is going to perform much better than one vs. 10 years ago.


Compute and FPS aren't the same?

GPUs have advanced a lot more in tensor computation and GPGPU than in pushing pixels onto a screen


same resolution as 10 years ago?
