Yes more than double, bit real world is hardly noticable at all unless you are transferring large files to another nvme drive or working with heavy qued loads.

400? Even budget cards now have 4k acceleration, 1050 hevc/264/vp9 decode. At a certain point being cheap is self defeating.

My benchmark is 20% of where normal is according to cinebench. So, better than a stock integrated APU if I had chosen intel but not good for gaming and no 4k.

It is not price fixing or tarrifs. When the Chinese government burning dead infected bodies 24/7 it will have a negative impact on everything they produce.

Not a fan of upgrading piecemeal though. It means the system is never running at what it is capable of so, imo, it's a waste of money. To me, cpu, mobo, and gpu go hand in hand. They are core...

Er... you'd have to go back 30+ years for a $155 purchase to be equivalent to a $300+ purchase today. Inflation has been pretty low in recent years.
I'm in the same boat as far as a slow upgrade...

The one star reviews on multiple online retailers is a bit concerning for SSD. Seems like if something goes wrong, you're screwed.
