While deepseek is billionaire funded it still should be better if run locally I don’t think Foss llms are at that level yet

After a while it’s not cheaper. 2080ti should already perform at the level or above a PS5 and console games don’t get the discounts PC games have plus most indie games aren’t even available on console.

And for real you don’t need a 1000$ card to game up to date AAA games, a 600-800$ PC can play fine at 1080p

Sounds like you waste alot of time with people who don’t deserve it
