Brand new Intel ARC B580 puts up numbers in the 4060 range and only costs around $250

I usually buy AMD for their open-source support. I wanted nvidia this time around to fiddle with AI stuff, which is better-supported on nvidia right now.

fiddle with AI stuff

I.e. one of the same things that causing gouging on GPUs and the market to be pushed out of gamers hands.
