[–] zurohki@aussie.zone 7 points 2 years ago (1 child) Yeah, but because pricing jumped like someone set a firecracker off under it's chair people are actually still using vintage GPUs. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] lengau@midwest.social 8 points 2 years ago It's not a perfect comparison, but if we go by the Steam Hardware Survey, the first item I can find on the list that's not supported with the latest beta drivers is the GT 730, at 0.21% of users. And it's from June 2014. Its passmark score is 835, which is lower than the 9 year old Intel HD 520 (867). I somehow doubt though that driver support for Vulkan/Wayland will be the major blocker. permalink fedilink source parent
