Mine is only 450-500 at most, and about half that cost (towards when GPUs began to come down). But I was just trying to ascertain how it compares to a gaming rig from current or a generation ago. If it can emulate and do 2D like a champ but struggles with 3D, that would factor into my decision. I don't mind lowering settings, but I do if they always have to be "Low." I did my time on a GTX 960M—not doing that again, insomuch as it's up to me.
But from the other answers, it sounds like it is both capable and has some unique use cases that my SFF desktop couldn't fill. With the community support and ever-growing list of tweaks and tools, I think it might be on my shortlist for the next sale.
