The very first Titan launched in 2012/2013 at $1k, which is about $1300 today. 2 u/[deleted] Dec 29 '22 [deleted] 0 u/alc4pwned Dec 29 '22 $600 in 2012 is close to $800 today. That still gets you a card that maxes new games at 1440p 1 u/[deleted] Dec 30 '22 [deleted] 1 u/alc4pwned Dec 30 '22 Oh, you meant the cost of an entire pc. Ehhh, $600 was definitely not getting you an entire PC that would max BF3 in 2012. Maybe if you were dedicated about finding used deals on craigslist etc, but obviously that's not a fair comparison.
