It's not a good time to buy a PC.

    They’ve been closing the gap for years now. They’re still behind but last I heard their top card was equivalent to a 4060 which is actually viable for a lot of people.

      No. Chinese GPUs have been complete disasters for gaming. Instead of the claimed 4060 competitor, the one you are referring to (which is the most powerful) struggles to compete with a 660 Ti from 2012.

      They might be more useful for AI, but as of right now, they are extremely far behind in the GPU space, far more so than in most other areas.

        Total overreaction. I was wrong about the 4060 performance, but their newest one is more like 1660, which is not that bad considering where they were a few years ago.

          For the price, it’s very bad, regardless of the progress that has been made.
