Benchmark Scores I once clocked a Celeron-300A to 564MHz on an Abit BE6 and it scored over 9000.
Yeah I was talking brand new from an internet retailer, the prices have actually gone up over the last 3 months by around 15%. I paid £389 for mine in early September, nowhere close to that now I think.
Ah okay, you quoted a comment about used cards for under 600CAD, that's all.

Nobody should be buying Ampere new now, especially not at the ugly prices Nvidia want for them. I really can't recommend anything new from Nvidia at all below a 3070 when the RX6600 significantly outperforms the 3060-12GB for $€£100 less, the RX6700-10GB gets within sniffing distance of a 3060Ti for $€£100 less, and neither of the Geforce options are fast enough to meaningfully raytrace anything the Radeon cards can't also raytrace.

3070 can at least raytrace at 1080p in the DXR-heavy titles like CP2077 but buying one new at this point for around $550 is madness when a 4070 is probably only a month away and likely to be $549-649
