I had been working for only a few months at my first job and it was the first time I could buy a desktop PC without very tight budget constraints. So I thought I'd look for a more midrange GPU for once. I wasn't convinced it would be worth it but I said fuck it what's the point of working and making money if I'm scared to spend it on something I want? So I bought an AMD Radeon 5700XT for ~400€ sometime around Christmas 2019. If you've been following PC hardware prices in the COVID era you know I'm extremely happy with my decision.
