I don't know what benches are, but it says it can game good at 1440p? even 60 fps say in far cry 6 for $250... at 1440p... that seems fair to me, considering the world is going to hell and hand basket, that seems fair deal to me.

With DLSS maybe, but they call it an entry-level card, entry-level cards shouldn't be this expensive.

It's raytracing capabilities are as useless as the rtx 2060, which many agreed it didn't need rtx due to its limited performance
See I thought he was implying it had none at all. It certainly won't be very usable IMO.
